The cause of the issue is likely the theme and not any bugs with the plugin or template.

The issue is that, likely the theme, is loading a version of jQuery which is not bundled with WordPress. This is not necessarily bad, but they way in which it was done will break other plugins.

To try to fix the issue, please go to the Connections : Settings admin page. Under the Advanced tab you’ll find a jQuery option. Enable this option and save.

In most all cases, this resolves the issue.

I hope that helps!

The plugin update is not the source of the formatting issue as it was a very minor change so the rich text editor for the bio and notes fields would work with WP 3.9. No styles were changed.

The source of the issue if a CSS conflict with the theme. The theme is overriding some of the template styles. To fix it, add the following to theme’s custom CSS area or to the end of its styles.css file:

#cn-cmap input[type="text"] {
    box-sizing: border-box !important;
}

That’ll fix the search input.

The category select… not much can be done about that. The child theme has CSS sprinkled throughout the following file that is overridding its styles:
http://scmwa.com/wp-content/themes/enfold/config-woocommerce/woocommerce-mod.css?ver=3.8.3

The specific style declaration all contain chzn-. Ten instances in all. You could try commenting them out to see if there is any negative impact on other parts of your site.

Likely it is safe, I browsed a few of your pages and did not see any instances in which those styles were actually being used. Perhaps you’re not using the feature where they would be needed?

Hope that helps!

Sounds as if the cMap template would meet your requirements. You can find it here:

Hope that helps!

I know it has been awhile, but this option is now under the Advanced tab on the Settings admin page. Unchecking the CSS option will disable the core CSS files. This new option will be part of the 0.8 release due out soon.

Ok, the Names template, since it used primarily for the “View All” link, has the name link featured enforced. You’ll have to make a small edit to let it honor the settings.

Change this line of code to this:
$entry->getNameBlock();

That’ll do it. Hope that helps!

Oh, you might want to add lock=true to the shortcode. That’ll prevent the shortcode from looking for any Connections related searches.

@ Jacey

Not out of the box … but I can give you a filter [Code Snippet] that will work with cMap that will make it not show results until a category or key word search is being done.

Hope that helps!

Well, the reviews and rating is being developed by a third party. It has been deployed on one site but it not yet ready for general sale.

The rest. As soon as I can get them completed. What that means in timeframe, honestly, I can not give an answer to that.

@ Kristean

My apologies for my delayed response! Actually, I could have sworn I answered days ago. I realize you may have moved on by now but regardless I’ll answer your questions the best I can…

Basically, yes, it does seem Connections would meet your requirements when pair with its Link extension. It does not yet have the ability to limit based on role, but you stated that was not essential.

So, you would use another plugin to handle user registration/verification and such. There are many useful membership plugins out there than handle this quite well.I do not know for certain, but I imagine they would have email notifications in which you could give instructions on adding their entry into Connections using Link. Those same plugin do usually handle user login redirect. You could set that up so they are redirected to the Connections Link admin profile page.

As for the directory being visible to only registered users, there is a setting within Connections on its Settings admin page under the General tab which you can enable the require login feature. That will ensure only verified registered users can view the directory.

I hope that helps!

@ Brad

Ahh, so you’re using Link…

I will have a notification extension ready for release sometime in the next few months. I have the base complete but it requires the next release of Connections which is nearing completion.

@ Regine

Thanks, you have a Happy Easter too.

I can look into using JavaScript for the back to top link in future updates.
