Is there any way I can show the Organization name instead of the Person’s name to start? I am using it on an industry association site so people would be searching more for the company name, and then they’d like to see who works there.

Thanks so much!

The only way to do that is to alter the PHP code of the template. Is that something you feel comfortable doing? If so, I can provide some directions to point you in the right direction.

possibly! If you could point me in the right direction I can give it a go!

Ok, you’ll need to edit the card.php file found here:
..wp-content/plugins/connections-excerpt-plus/

Look for the two instances of this:

$entry->getNameBlock( array( 'format' => $atts['name_format'], 'link' => $atts['link'] ) )

You’ll need to replace both with this:
$entry->getOrganization()

Also, in both those lines you’ll need to change the commas to periods.

Then to add the name back add the following where you want it to show.

$entry->getNameBlock( array( 'format' => $atts['name_format'], 'link' => $atts['link'] ) );

I think that it it.
