    Hi Steve

    Been using Connections for several years now and this is the first time I’ve had a need for this….

    Want to hyperlink to another page on the website – on which the directory appears – but want to link to a specific listing in that directory.

    I’m thinking I should be able to use the #id of the listing – but tried a few things and struck out.

    For example: On our Taste Explorer page – there’s a directory with all our local restaurants – I want to link to one specific restaurant who id is “Midori”. The page is actually permalinked as “dine”

    Tried http://www.grandbendtourism.com/dine.php?s=Midori – but it didn’t work

    Suggestions? Is what I’m trying to do possible?

    @ Susan

    The link would be:

    http://www.grandbendtourism.com/dine/name/midori/

    Looks like you customized the cMap template… you’ll probably want to customize the card-single.php file too to better suit your needs.

    Hope this helps!

    @ Susan

    Oh, this would work too:

    http://www.grandbendtourism.com/dine/#midori

    This way will just “scroll” down to the entry on the current page vs. displaying only that entry that the other link does.
