    @ Steve

    You can not combine them, that’s the purpose of the two shortcodes. Showing featured entries only within the selected category isn’t possible without duplication. That was a detail I was not understanding from your questions, sorry.

    You can modify any of the core templates. Just be sure to make backup copies of any changes you make because they will be overwritten during a plugin update.

    Hope that helps.

    @ M

    The only way to do that would to be to modify the template file. Make sure to create a backup copy after you do because your change will be lost during a plugin update.

    1. The connections_templates folder is only there to support legacy templates, not for custom templates. Since templates are plugins, you need to put them in the plugins folder. And for WP to recognize it as a plugin, the template needs to have the plugin header added. If you trying to make a custom template from one of the core templates you’ll need to change all class and function names and will as the slug in the $atts array.

    2. Make sure you are not copy/pasting option from the website. Delete the shortcode manually type the options and option values. Copy/pasting from the website will past in hidden HTML markup and/or fancy quotes neither of which the WP shortcode API supports when trying to parse the options.

    3. If the user logged in with Link installed prior to have an entry in Connections, the user will not be linked. For example, user logins in, no match is found. The user is marked as being checked and will not be checked again. For testing. Create an entry in Connections, create a user, and then login as that user. Some membership plugins do break the linking process. Do you have any installed?

    Hope that helps.

    @ Martin

    If the theme has styles built in for widgets and categories in widgets. There is nothing you have to do. Are you have some sort of specific issue?

    Nothing to update yet. I have not been able to replicate this on my dev site. Could I also get an FTP account and access to phpMyAdmin? I know that’s asking for a lot, but I’m not sure I’ll be able to track down the bug. All I know right now is where this is happening but not why on your site. You can send the login details as a private reply or using the contact link at the bottom of the page.

    I see you replied a couple times while I was drafting my initial reply…

    What you did to get it to work on the public side of your site is you set the Medium image size to the correct size for the template so it didn’t need to create them dynamically. In the admin, they are still being created dynamically which is why you’re seeing the loading spinner. My suggestions from my previous reply still apply.

    My best guess is one of two following…

    One, the document root can not be determined automatically. So you have to manually set the DOCUMENT_ROOT here’s how:

    Add the following to the timthumb-config.php file found here:

    ../wp-content/plugins/connections/includes/libraries/timthumb/

    This is what you need to add, make sure to change the doc root accordingly:

    define ('LOCAL_FILE_BASE_DIRECTORY','/my/doc/root/');

    What /my/doc/root will be will depend entirely on the server setup. If you go to the the Connections : Dashboard admin page and look at the the System widget; there will be a constant named CN_PATH. The doc root should be the beginning portion of that path. What I can tell you is that from the wp-content on will NOT be part of the doc root.

    Two, some server setting is preventing the script from reading the images and if that is the case, so, I do not know what that could be. Maybe a rule in the .htaccess file or something your webhost has configured. If you have any security related plugins installed, perhaps they’re blocking content.

    I hope that helps point you in the right direction.
