    Since this is a temp account, use any fake email address such as help@me.com

    The snippet code is not running because the Code Snippets safe mode has been enabled. Please disable the safe mode by removing the CODE_SNIPPETS_SAFE_MODE constant from wp-config.php.

    After you disable the code snippet safe mode the custom city field should display.

    Hoe this helps, let me know.

    Yep! That fixed it. Now I can see the field as an option when managing or adding new entries.

    I’m still not able to see the changes on the card.php file, though. I’ve followed the steps in how to create a custom template override file and have it in
    ../wp-content/theme/parent-theme/connections_templates/circled/card.php

    I’ve pasted the following code into the card.php file:

    <?php
    $text = $entry->getMeta(
    array(
    ‘key’ => ‘city’,
    ‘single’ => TRUE
    )
    );

    if ( ! empty( $text ) ) echo '' . esc_html( $text ) . '';
?&gt;

    Please create a copy of the card.php file and rename that copy to card.txt. Attach the renamed copy to a reply so I can see. Thanks!

    Oh, question… you are not literally using the parent-theme folder are you? If you are, that is only a placeholder for the actual theme folder.

    So in your case it should be something like this:

    ../wp-content/themes/benevolence-wpl/connections_templates/circled/card.php

    @Steve,

    I am using benevolence-wpl and not parent-theme. The route you pasted in the last message is accurate.

    I had to go back and reference the docs on custom template override files… connections_templates needs to be connections-templates. Change the underscore to a hyphen.

    Does that help?

    Great to hear! Sorry, I did not notice the error in the file path sooner.
