Hi, I am putting together a list of project-members in slim plus, currently as individuals and have 3 questions that I haven’t resolved yet.

1. Under “settings/display” I have the option to display a “View All” link. However, it also shows when linking to individual entries (using id) from other pages (where I was able to remove the search-option and alphaindex). So, how can I enable or disable “View All”, so it only shows at the top of my list of all members (and not when I want the id-entry).
2. Using the id-option, is it possible to only open a reduced info version of an individual (e.g. phone + email) with (or without) the option to link to the full entry (e.g. with bio).
3. If I use the display-mode “organization” in Slim Plus, the individual’s name is dropped and the list sorts by organization (e.g. putting 30 members under the same headline organization). Is there a way to sort by name while using “organization”?

Many thanks, Helen

Not sure I understand the questions… can you please share a link to your directory page so I can take a look? Visuals always helps a lot. :)

Oh, I think I under stand… you want the “View All” link on your staff page… but you are “embedding” a single entry on other pages where you you do not want the “View All” link to be shown. Is that correct?

There now way to do that thru the settings, but there could be a work around you can use.

Copy the URL of the “View All” link. Navigate to the staff list page and edit it. Add a link above the shortcode using the view all link that you just copied. Now, disable the view all list action.

Now, that link you manually added to the staff page will show but it will not be present on any other page where you are embedding a single entry.

Hope that helps, let me know.

Hi Steven,

excellent, hadn’t realized the “view all” list would be available without activating the button.

I’ve made further progress in tweaking the single-entry. Is there a way of adding a line of text (e.g. “See member list for CV””)?

Also, can I adjust the text-width in the single-entry view? I removed the photo, but the entry still does not use all the available space (i.e. breaks across lines).

Or should I open new thread?

Many thanks, Helen

@ Helen

How are you making the changes? Editing the PHP files?

Hi Steven,

on my wp-page the code reads as

[connections id='12' enable_search='FALSE' enable_category_select='FALSE' enable_select_all='FALSE' show_alphaindex='FALSE' enable_bio='FALSE' image='' link_format='%title%' str_work_phone="Phone" str_work_email="Email" image_fallback="none" show_empty_categories='FALSE' str_image="" enable_bio_head=TRUE str_bio_head='Biography under Memberlist']

as I removed the picture I was hoping the text would use the full space available, but while the text moved to the left it still wraps

I put a new image up.
