What version of Connections and WordPress do you have installed? I can not tell from the screenshots.

cMap is the most popular template, however you can/can not search by city, state, zip. You can by using the keyword search field in the template will search those fields, configure that on the Connections : Settings admin page under the Search tab. But you can not in the sense that search will not limit the results to a specific city, state, zip. Hope that makes sense… Another option for city, state, zip … those parts of the address can be converted to links that when clicked by the user will filter the results by the region that was clicked. This feature can be enabled on the Connections : Settings admin page under the Advanced tab. This feature will work on any template, including the free ones included with Connections.

Hope this answers your question thoroughly.

No, the CSV Import only adds entries to the Connections database, no users are created as they are completely separate. The Link extension for Connections creates a “symbolic” link between the two for users such as yourself that need the two to be linked to each other.

You can likely use the same CSV file you imported into Connections with one of these plugins to import them as WP users:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/members-import/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/import-users-from-csv/

Hope that helps!

You you need to use Poedit and translate the connections_widgets.pot file found in this folder:
../wp-content/plugins/connections-widgets/languages/

Here’s a link that explains how to do it. The applicable section is the “Creating a .po file (for translators)” section.

If you send me you completed translation, I’ll include it with the Widget pack.

Hope that helps!

If you have a moment, I would truly appreciate a review as they really do make a difference. Many thanks in advance!

re: In which file on the back end do I edit the name of the fields ie: Home?
Yes, see this QuickTip. Since you’re using cMap, this FAQ will also be of great help. The complete list of options for cMap that the FAQ refers to can be found on this page.

re: I just want to have the links and not the words website: in front of the links.
To remove the link label, you can use this shortcode:
[connections link_format="%title%"]

Yes, sort of, this is possible… First, remove the template shortcode override from the shortcode as that will override all settings. After you have done that… Go to the Connections : Settings admin page and enable the Single Entry Template option under the Display tab. Now go to the Connections : Templates admin page. Under the All template type make sure Slim Plus is the active template. Finally under both the Individual and Organization template types, activate the Bio Entry Card template. Now when you visit an individual entry, it display using the Bio Entry Card rather than the Slim Plus template.

Hope that makes sense and helps!

Good to hear! The difference between cMap 3.x and 4.x is that Connections is responsible for loading CSS files and such now so the dependencies can be loaded in the proper order. cMap 3.x loaded it own files so there’s no way to control load order. Hope that makes sense.

The shortcode option is link_format. I just test it and it does work. Example:
`[connections page_limit=20 link_format='%label%%separator% %title%']

Before Connections >= 0.8 and the latest versions of the template, no, there were no in-admin updates. Now there are, to receive notification of cMap updates, make sure to add your support license key on the Connections : Settings admin page under the Licenses tab. After you do, you’ll be notified every time I release an update.

Hope that helps!

It sounds like you may have HTML or other stray character in the shortcode that is breaking it. Please see this QuickTip on how to work with shortcodes. The short of it is to delete the shortcode, switch the editor to the Text tab and then manually retype it.

@ Steve

The files should be cmap-custom.css.

I see you have cMap 3.0.3 installed, that could be the issue, please update to 4.0. Quick question, you do have not moved the core min CSS file to any other folder have you? Meaning it is in the cMap plugin folder, right? Attached a screen of the page source showing the sections where all the CSS files are loaded.

@ Lucas

These are shortcode options for the cMap template, not CSS statements. Each page has the demo shortcode on it, use that for reference. Example:

[connections enable_category_select='false' enable_search='false']
