@ Helen

Can you please go back and read the thread from last year?
http://connections-pro.com/support/topic/addresses-disappear-when-edit-entries/

As explained in that thread, for some reason, back then, the update didn’t properly migrate the data to the new database structure. I went in and forced the update which I said would cause duplicate data when you go and edit an entry, but that the duplicate data would not show on the frontend of the site. When you edit an entry, you’ll have to remove the duplicates. So the duplicates is not a new issue and is not happening again. Unfortunately the only solution will be to remove the duplicates when you edit an entry.

With that said, the entry should show all the data, minus the duplicates, that is set as public. I went to your site and looked at the Craftiques entry that you pointed out. I see that is has the name, phone, address and email. Please see the attached screen capture of what I see when I visit your site. Unless you fixed it, it seems to look right to me according to your description.

Multiple websites … not sure what change you made before as I could not found any discussions we had… but here’s how to do it with Tile Plus.

Go to the Member Directory page and edit it.
You should have the [connections] shortcode on that page. You may or may have set some shortcode options step. Regardless you need to add enable_website_link=false show_links=true to the shortcode.
The final shortcode shold be somethinf like this:

[connections enable_website_link=false show_links=true]

I hope that helps!

Is the site live and may I use it as a live sample?

@ Tim

The valid options are before and after. When I said top and bottom, I was speaking just in terms of position. Here’s the link to the doc page:

Hope that helps!

Currently the only email Connections send is from the Form extension which has settings available in the admin to allow the subject and message to be customized.

@ Mike

Glad to hear it helps.

1. You can use the order_by shortcode option to create custom ordering.
2. This is a template level design item … none of the free core template support this. Both the cMap and Market templates do. By default the present the logo on the card and if there is text in the bio field and there was an image uploaded, the image will be displayed in the bio content tray of the card. Hope that makes sense!

Hope that helps!

1. Tile Plus will automatically create images from the source image that are
100px x 130px. It does not use the pre-cached image sizes created when you add a new image. You will have to pre-process the image, scale and crop. If you upload a pre-cropped image using the same ratio (10:13) that would work too. For example, images with the dimension of 200px x 260px or 110px x 143px. Here’s the math…

( width / height ) * new-height = new-width

OR

( height / width ) * new-width = new-height

2. This couldn’t be done without digging into the PHP of the template.

3. You need to edit the card-single.php file found here:
../wp-content/plugins/connections-tile-plus/

Look for this:

$entry->getImage( array(
	'image'    => $atts['image'] ,
	'height'   => $atts['image_height'] ,
	'width'    => $atts['image_width'] ,
	'fallback' => array(
		'type'     => $atts['image_fallback'] ,
		'string'   => $atts['str_image']
		)
	)
);

Change it to:

$entry->getImage( array(
	'image'    => 'logo'
	)
);

Now, it’ll use the logo size defined on the settings page.

4. The default limit is 20 per page. Since you have three in a row, there would be a blank spot. Increase the page limit to 21 by adding page_limit=21 to the shortcode.

Hope that helps!

Both. Support and free updates for a period on 1 year from date of purchase. Renewals, if you chose, are at a discounted rate of 20% off the current price. If you chose not to renew the license, you would lose access to the updates which by the way … in admin updates are coming really soon for all templates and extensions. NO more having to log in here, download and then manually updating. Yeah! Back on topic… you would lose access to updates but the template or extension will continue to function. There could come a point where a template or extension may no longer function with newer version of Connections which then would require you to update. But, I do work very hard to make sure updates do not break existing templates and extensions. I’ll say, making sure I keep backward compatibility, is, well, hard. Templates from 4 years ago still work with Connections and that is after significant changes about once a year to the supported template design and structure. The next release takes the ability to customize templates to another whole level.

Any way, I;ve rambled on long enough. I hope that answers your question. The official terms and conditions can be found here.

@ Arleston

You need the Link extension. Hope that helps.

@ Matthew

I personally do not offer custom coded services at this time. However, I do have a dev I can recommend. He has a lot of experience working with Connections and its addons. I’ll ask him to drop by this forum so you and he can get in touch.
