    Is there a way to show categories on the individual tiles?

    Is this question in reference to either Tile or Tile Plus? if yes:

    The only way to do this is to edit the core template’s PHP file. Here’s how:

    Open this file:
    ../wp-content/plugins/tile/card.php OR
    ../wp-content/plugins/tile-plus/card.php

    Add this code where you would like the categories to be shown:

    $entry->getCategoryBlock( array('separator' => ', ', 'before' => '', 'after' => '') );

    I hope that helps!

    My hierarchy is more like this: plugins/connections/templates/card …

    …and I can’t figure out where to change it.

    Which template are you using? You mentioned “tile” so I’m guessing you’re referring to Tile or Tile Plus. If that is the case, the paths I gave are correct. If you are using one of the core templates, then yes plugins/connections/templates/ would be correct. If you’re using a core template it would be one of those subfolders but I’d have to know which template you’re using. You could just activate the Default template since it shows the categories by default.

    Those are mods that were made to previous version of Tile Plus that someone made. You’ll have to make the same mods to the updated version.

    To change “Categories” to “Practice Areas” use add this to the template:
    $entry->getCategoryBlock( array('label' => 'Practice Areas', 'separator' => ', ', 'before' => '', 'after' => '') );

    To add the notes and bio add these:

    $entry->getNotesBlock();
    $entry->getBioBlock();
