I have more than one entry in a category and Connections seems to know this because it displays “name of category (2)” but when the category is clicked it only displays one entry. How do I get it to display all the entries in that category?

I assuming you are seeing this on the Categories admin page? Correct? If not, where?

re: when the category is clicked it only displays one entry.

What exactly are you clicking and where? Please provide more details.

One thing to check… ensure all the entries are all set to public or they will not be displayed.

Sorry, not on the admin page but on the front end of the site. I have the categories displayed at the top of the directory but when I click on one that should have two entries it only displays one of the entries. When I click View All, all the entries are displayed so they must all be public.

What is the exact shortcode you are using on the page?

Can you share a link to the page with the issue?

[Barbara Hampson]

Shortcode is: [connections]

The issue is not that all entries are not being displayed. The issue is that the page is not being completely rendered. Notice how the page header is not displayed and missing the page footer.

Generally this is caused by:

• some fatal plugin conflict, very, very, rare.
• fatal php error, rare, but can happen
• php running out of the memory allocated to it, still rare but more common than the previous two, especially on the lesser expensive shared web hosts.

So, my first suggestion, try increasing the memory allocated to PHP. Here’s an excellent blog post which covers several ways to do it. Which method that will work really depends on the webhost.

I suggest starting at the top and work your way down the list.

Hope that helps, let me know.

The default PHP memory on my server is 120 MB so that is likely not the issue. A php error detection plugin reported the following: “Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to string
wp-content/plugins/connections/includes/entry/class.entry-output.php 2760.” How can I fix this?

Try deactivating the Enhanced Categories extension.

Does the error go away?

[Barbara Hampson]

Yes, the page renders properly with Enhanced Categories deactivated. But I would like to be able to list the categories on the page.

[Barbara Hampson]

Actually, although the page displays correctly now since deactivating the Enhanced Categories, that error message has not gone away.
