I can’t seem to figure out how to have the system create a list of organizations by state (in the “name” template style) and then, when someone clicks the name, have the system display it in the “Bio Entry Card” template style.

What’s currently happening is that if I select or use the over-ride to show the listings in “name” style, the individual listing also shows only the name.

I have the latest everything (including the pro import csv plug-in).

@ James

Go to the Connections : Settings admin page and enable the single entry option under the Display tab.

Now go to the Connections : Templates admin page and activate the Names template under the All template type and under the Individual and Organization templates types activate the Bio Entry Card template.

Do not use the template override shortcode option because that will override the settings.

That should do it.

Yes, that did it. I see I can order them by state, but how do I get the states listed as headers? For example:

ALABAMA
(entries)

ALASKA
(entries)

Or do I have to use:

ALABAMA
connections order_by=’state|SORT_ACS,zipcode|SORT_DESC’ state=”AL”

ALASKA
connections order_by=’state|SORT_ACS,zipcode|SORT_DESC’ state=”AK”

Also, do you have a plug-in to display a Google map of the entries (pinned/flagged or whatever they call it) that can be used as the directory (navigation)?

@ James

You have to do the latter but the shortcode would be:

[connections order_by='zipcode|SORT_DESC' state='AL']

No need to add the order by state since the list is already limited by state.
