A third party dev is working on an export extension for Connections. I don’t know what the his current status is as I haven’t heard back for a few weeks now, but hopefully it’ll be available for sale soon.

Right now, the only real option is to use phpMyAdmin or similar tool and export the data out as a CSV file from there. Maybe that’ll suit your needs.

@ Alan

I’ve thought about this for awhile and I can’t really come up with a way, other than categories, sorry!

Not likely I’ll be adding a setting … I’ll never make everyone happy. This won’t make 0.8, but, I’ll be adding a methods (filters) that will allow these types of changes to be made in an update safe way.

I think this would be the correct pattern for your phone format would be:
((\(\d{3}\) ?)|(\d{3}-))?\d{3}-\d{4}

That would make the entire line like this:

<input type='tel' pattern='((\(\d{3}\) ?)|(\d{3}-))?\d{3}-\d{4}' title='Phone Number (Format: (123) 456-7890)'>

The lines you need to edit are here and here. It’ll change in 0.8. Also, you will not be able to just copy past this, you’ll need to update. I think you’ll see what I mean when you look at the source code.

Alrighty, the purchase has been transferred. You should see it in your purchase history.

The goal was the end of November … oops! Unfortunately I do not have a revised ETA. It is shaping up to be a massive update. They are two other devs who are contributing some code/work and they are already using the dev version on client sites because of the new custom metabox and fields API. Myself and another dev are in the middle of the last two large enhancements … at best guess, maybe two months.

@ Tina

Unfortunately I can’t help with that, only because every theme is different. Your theme may not even have that as a feature. If it doesn’t, you can use the My Custom CSS plugin.

Hope that helps.

@ Mitch

Ok, I’ll need that other email address so I can transfer the purchase. Just post it here as a private reply.

@ Iris

It sound like you’re attempting to use the legacy template installer. For all current templates, you install it as a plugin and then activate the plugin. After it is activated it will show up as an available template. Here’s the link for instructions on how to install a template.

Hope that helps!

@ Mitch

What is being used to input the data, the add entry page, Link or Form?

You could make an edit the code so the input for the phone number is like this:

<input type='tel' pattern='\d{3}[\-]\d{3}[\-]\d{4}' title='Phone Number (Format: 123-456-7890)'>

I can’t really put this in Connections because the pattern changes depending on the county and even then there are multiple valid acceptable patterns. That why I decided to just leave it a free text input.

Oh, this will only be enforced on more modern browsers. Anyone using Chrome or Firefox should be fine. And I think it’ll only work on IE10+.

Hope that helps!

@ Mitch

I believe version 3.1 is the latest.

I just checked your purchase history, it is there, the 08/26/2011 purchase.
