    I did the update, and now cannot get any page with the [connections] shortcode to display anything. I have tried changing the page with the connections shortcode in the settings to ‘listings’ although it is infact on many pages.

    I have now figured this out, but it might be worth letting other users know, after the update you need to remove the [raw] [/raw] shortcodes from the beginning and end of your [connections] not sure why but this has now fixed the problem

    The [raw] shortcode is from the theme, not Connections, and from my experience it’s pretty buggy. Theme devs, especially those on Themeforest, all pretty much copied the same code from the same tutorial. With that said, Connections 0.7.6 and newer I have worked around the issues caused by the [raw] shortcode, for the most part anyway. However, the workaround is off by default and must be turned on in the advanced settings. Why did this cause a problem for you, sorry, I don’t know, but I’m glad you’ve found a fix and it was relatively simple.
