No, what Craig asked for was a page that listed all categories within Connections as links.

The site that you linked to…

All they did was create a several individual pages and used the category shortcode option and the enable_category_by_root_parent available that the cMap template enables. to create several mini directories separated by category parent.

Hope that helps!

Notifications for what actions?

@ Shari

Go to the Connections : Templates admin page and under the Individual and Organization template types active the the Bio Entry Card template. Right now it looks like the Default Entry Card template is activated.

Hope that helps!.

The issue is that, likely the theme, is include an HTML shim script. The purpose of these shim scripts is to enable HTML5 features in browsers that do not support them. They work pretty well … but, there seems to be a bug in this shim script.

When you click on a category, the “Search” placeholder string in the search box is being sent too. So you’re actually searching for “Search” within the category being clicked. Obviously not what we want to do.

The fix will be to remove the “Search” placeholder text. To do this easily, we can use another plugin.

Changing the search string can be done with the Say What? plugin.

It’ll add a new Text Changes menu item. Click Add New, enter the string exactly as shown in Connections, Search. Next enter connections [notice the lack of capitalization, that's important!] as the domain and then enter your new text. The new text you want to add will be nothing, leave it blank.

That should fix it.

Indeed! Could I please have a temp admin account so I can take look?

@ Craig

The theme or another plugin must have a CSS style that is somehow overriding the CSS style for the category input. The only way I’ll be able to provide you with a CSS statement that can fix this is to have access to the page with Form on it. If you can share that link with me I will take a look.

1. Sorry, no, there is not an all-in-one solution for creating families. The best suggestion I can give is to use the CSV Import extension to import the individuals all at once. Then the only step, would be to create the families.

2. I suggest making the entries private. Private entries will only be visible to users that are logged in. Depending on your role setup and the role your users have, you may have to go to the Connections : Roles admin page and give that role the view private capability. You can then uncheck the private override option.

3. I suggest enabling the require login option under the general tab. You can then use any freely available login form plugin that has a shortcode to add a login form to the login required message.

I hope that helps!

This sounds like a plugin conflict. What other plugins do you have installed? Have you tried deactivating them one at a time to find which one there is a conflict with?

[Steven Zahm]

@ Brian

Sorry, no there is not. Attempting to try do create code to do that could become quite tricky.

I see you for the most part simply using the TwentyTwelve theme. I do not have the issue when I use TwentyTwelve (its actually the theme I use while developing). And I be darned if I can figure out why…

Here’s a work-around though. Add the following to your child theme’s css file:

.cn-entry-single {
    width: 956px;
}

Tweak the width to suit. Hope that helps!
