    Hello. I recently installed this plugin and am liking it very much. I have one question.

    How do I display some type of search functionality on the directory page?

    My ‘members’ page currently has this shortcode: [connections show_alphahead='true']

    I would like to be able to search by first name, last name, department, etc, etc

    Is this possible? If so, how?

    Thanks!

    All of the premium templates includes a keyword search field which will search those fields. They also include a category search filter.

    Hope this helps! Let me know.

    ps. Some templates have the search features disabled by default due to their design focus being small teams. Search can be enabled on these templates.

    Ok, I can buy a template. Just a couple more questions before I buy your plugin.

    I plan on using this as a directory of our membership.

    1. Is it possible to rename or add custom fields to match our needs?
    2. Is it possible to import a CSV file of our existing members?

    I think that’s all for now – Thanks for the quick response!

    You can customize any string in Connections that you wish, including field names. See this this doc for the details:

    You can also add custom fields, please see this dev doc:

    Yes, there is a CSV Import addon, here’s the link:

    Hope this helps!
