    Hi. I’m trying to create a Resource Directory, which would show the following fields right in the list:

    • Snapshot of Website instead of any logos or pics (using your
      extension)
    • Company name
    • Website
    • Notes
    • Maybe email

    That’s it. How can I accomplish this?

    Also, later, is there a way to show custom fields with account info that would display only that logged in user’s info?

    Thanks!

    Also, I’d want to be able to use your forms extension to quickly add entries on the go, including the webpage snapshot.

    I purchased and tried your Snapshot with Tile Plus, but apparently you can’t then click on the entry to view more info, is that correct? And is there a way to display the name above the screenshot/link?

    re: which would show the following fields right in the list… That’s it. How can I accomplish this?

    I see you have purchased Tile Plus, seems like that is the template closest to you needs. You just need to enable the notes so they display when viewing a single entry. You can do this by using this shortcode on you directory page:

    [connections enable_note='true']

    re: is there a way to show custom fields with account info that would display only that logged in user’s info?

    Sorry, no. Something like this would have to be custom coded to meet your specific needs.

    re: Also, I’d want to be able to use your forms extension to quickly add entries on the go, including the webpage snapshot.

    Sorry, but I am not sure I see the question???

    re: I purchased and tried your Snapshot with Tile Plus, but apparently you can’t then click on the entry to view more info, is that correct?

    Yes, you can click on e the entry… the single entry view displays the bio, map, notes as well as any custom fields that might be added by an extension (like Contact). Other details can be shown too, but they will also display in the results list view which means you would have to adjust the tile size in order to accommodate the additional content. The next update to Tile Plus, which is a major one, will enable the Template Customizer feature (like the Default Entry Card template). With this you will be able to configure the list view and single view separately.

    re: is there a way to display the name above the screenshot/link?

    No, the only way to change the layout would be to edit the template’s PHP file.

    Hope that helps!
