    The dropdown on our Members page (https://scopevc.com/scope-members/) is not dropping down, though “Select Category” is visible. If a user chooses a category conveniently displayed on the right sidebar or the navigation menu (under Ventura County Senior Services), the drop down works fine. How can I get it to work on the Members page?
    Thank you!

    RE: Joel

    What is the exact shortcode you are using on the members page? I ask because on that page there are no category selection available which is why it does not drop down. I suspect they all may be excluded somehow.

    RE: Joel

    That is not a shortcode the shortcode should be [connections]. You did not paste the HTML in the post did you? You can not do that as it will not work.

    How would you like me to submit the HTML that was used? How can I attach something to send to you?

    @ Joel

    I’m sorry, but you should not use the HTML generated by the shortcode on it is own … you should use the actual shortcode itself. Using the generated HTML makes it “static in the page, it will not, as an example, show newly added categories. Which is pretty much the reason you do not see categories on that page, the category options are completely missing.

    Edit the page in the admin, remove the HTML, and use the [connections] shortcode.

    Hope this helps!

    Hi Steven – Somehow the source code migrated to text of the page. I replaced it with the short code and all is well. Not sure how this happened. I thank you for your help.
