    Hmm… did both, neither of these things worked. I’d be happy if just the CSS bit worked – the alpha index is placed sort of strangely.

    One more question – how can I get the alpha index to be in a different position? I want it to be aligned left on the page and above the category dropdown and search box.

    I’m attaching an image…

    Nope, I got it. The tile plus template with the additional CSS you gave me did exactly what I needed. My thanks…

    By the way, that problem with the letter index also exists with the search and the category drop down. It returns me to the base (home) connections page. That’s strange…

    What is sound like is a custom version of Excerpt Plus which removes the excerpt and shows selected details instead. Do I understand corectly?

    Yes, that’s pretty much it.

    I did find another possible solution though. I used tile plus and set the background to white. Tile plus shows the info as I need it and the name links to the bio as I specified in the template settings. So that’s fine. But I want to also lose the border and shadow and can’t seem to find the CSS to accomplish this. Could you help me out with that?

    Another issue with this though… when I use the letter index and click on ‘C’ is brings up all the people with ‘C’ names. But when I hit ‘clear search’ it does not go back to the page but rather to the ‘base page’ (directory results) which looks totally different. Is that a bug?

    By the way, setting the excerpt to ‘0’ has a strange effect – it includes all the words up to the first punctuation.

    Thanks,
    Linda

    I bought the pro pack after you answered this.

    No, it’s a separate issue.

    This is helpful – I thought the alpha index was specific to certain templates – didn’t realize it was universal. I really want the search function though, so maybe I’ll need to use a premium template (I have no problem paying for templates – well worth it!). What do you suggest as the most flexible template – one that I can pare down to include very little info?

    Thanks,
    Linda
