Sorry, nothing I can do about that. That is a character limit set at the db level. Some hosts set 3, some set 4. What is happening is that the db will toss any search that do not meet or exceed the set limit. If you have keyword search enabled, try disabling it and let the FULLTEXT search … you might get lucky and that’ll work.

re: 1
I did change the loading priority, but that should not have affected most of the translated strings, only a few. I do not have that translation. Would you mind sharing and I’ll bundle it with Connections so all can benefit?

re: 2
Nope, that function call did not change … If I did, would have thousands of users all calling out in agony all at once ;) best to avoid that, right?

re: template override file
Nope, the naming is definitely wrong. With the first override option, the only valid names are those at the bottom of this page.

Judging from the folder and filename in the screenshot, you need to move that card-bio folder to the plugins folder and then activate that template so it will override the core template.

Sorry, no, never worked on it. I can probably slide this into the next release. What’s the real world use case/example where this would be beneficial?

Ok, I see this issue. I didn’t notice before because JS errors are just about always the cause … the template’s JS file is not being loaded for some reason. Well, the JS still may have likely caused a problem. Anyway…

I unfortunately run across this, very rarely thankfully… but for some reason there are themes due to the way they build pages break being able to enqueue a JS file mid page which is what Connections does so the template’s JS file is only loaded on the page in which it needs to be loaded on.

Can I get a temp admin account so I can take a closer look?

Really weird indeed … I’m sticking with the folder name change as my main theory. PO must keep a setting/option stored in a manner that is not purged until it is deleted.

Great!

re: Is it possible only show categories by id?
How do you mean? The results can be limited by category ID using the category shortcode option. Is that what you mean?

@ Tim

Thanks for the review!!!

The edit to the template file would have to have been done manually. The only file writing code Connections has is for an index.php file and an htaccess file for the images folder. Nothing in the code that would allow writing or changing the contents of a template file.

Seems unlike … but which translation are you running? I’ll give it a try to see if that is the issue.

Also, could you attach a screen capture of the mapping step?

It will work regardless of the user logged in unless the CSS file that this was added to is loaded conditionally based on the user that is logged in. My guess that it is a cache issue. You’re still being served a version of the CSS file which does not have the change. Hitting SHIFT+F5 cleared the Chrome browser cache for me and the department field no longer shows.

@ Kristina

Which language file was not loading? The metabox title, right?

The path seems fine, but lets confirm:

../wp-content/themes/{child-theme}/connections-templates/card-bio/

What is not clear is the override file name, could you confirm?

Depending on what you’re trying to achieve, there is basically two ways to override a core template. It seems like you are using this method. This means the file in the above folder should be named something like card.php and/or card-single.php.

The other way is to completely override everything for the core template by copying it to the plugins folder so it is loaded as a plugin which can be activated/deactivated like any other.
