    We are using this for a church directory. The member pics had been loaded into image slot. It didn’t show correctly on individual pages but did show on listing of family pages.

    We went in and posted the pics to the logo spot. Now the individual page shows correctly but the pic doesn’t show on the family listen pages. Is there a way to have it pull from logo instead of images?

    here is the code from the page for the list of family groupings.

    [connections list_type='family']

    template is cMap 4.0

    @ cheryl

    By default the logo is shown on the results list and single views. It can be changed to be to be the image instead by using this shortcode:

    [connections list_type='family' image='photo' tray_image='none']

    You do not need to make any changes to view the logo since it is used by default.

    Since you are using the list type shortcode option, this will also force Connections to use the template activated under the “Family” template type. So, make sure to have cMap activated under both the “Family” and “Individual” template types to make sure it is used in both instances.

    Hope that helps, let me know!

    Since the logo is used by default in cMap … there is nothing to set. Did you do what I said here?

    Great to hear!

    Which update specifically? I’m working on the 8.2 release which should be completed in a week or two. And I have other updates with other featured scheduled too.
