I’m trying to add the same logo to all contacts. I’ve made changes to the database but it’s not transferring to the Connections. Is there a lag time? Can I not use the same image for multiple users? This is what I’m changing:

From:
a:4:{s:5:”entry”;a:1:{s:4:”type”;s:10:”individual”;}s:5:”group”;a:1:{s:6:”family”;a:0:{}}s:4:”logo”;a:2:{s:6:”linked”;b:0;s:7:”display”;b:0;}s:5:”image”;a:2:{s:6:”linked”;b:0;s:7:”display”;b:0;}}

To:
a:3:{s:5:\entry\”;a:1:{s:4:\”type\”;s:10:\”individual\”;}s:5:\”group\”;a:1:{s:6:\”family\”;a:0:{}}s:4:\”logo\”;a:3:{s:6:\”linked\”;b:1;s:7:\”display\”;b:1;s:4:\”name\”;s:40:\”CCCS-Preferred-LogoGRAY_logo_logo_50.jpg\”;}}”
–This is copied from a user who already has the log displayed.

Thanks,
S

No, the changes would be immediate. not sure if this was just from copy/pasting but the quotes are escaped and they shouldn’t be … oh, unless that is the string you are using for the actual query, then they do need to be escaped.

You do have an error though which is causing the serialized string the be corrupt. try this:

a:3:{s:5:\"entry\";a:1:{s:4:\"type\";s:10:\"individual\";}s:5:\"group\";a:1:{s:6:\"family\";a:0:{}}s:4:\"logo\";a:3:{s:6:\"linked\";b:1;s:7:\"display\";b:1;s:4:\"name\";s:40:\"CCCS-Preferred-LogoGRAY_logo_logo_50.jpg\";}}

or try this if you do not need the quotes to be escaped:

a:3:{s:5:"entry";a:1:{s:4:"type";s:10:"individual";}s:5:"group";a:1:{s:6:"family";a:0:{}}s:4:"logo";a:3:{s:6:"linked";b:1;s:7:"display";b:1;s:4:"name";s:40:"CCCS-Preferred-LogoGRAY_logo_logo_50.jpg";}}

Note, I have tested this. I just took what you pasted above and fixed it (I think).

Not certain, but this QuickTip could work for you too … it depends.

Hope this helps.

Thank you, I should have caught that and thanks for the QuickTip and fast response.
