I’m a bit confused on the “View all” link part. That setting is on the Connections : Settings admin page under the Display tab.

The shortcode I linked you to only output a list of upcoming birthdays or anniversaries, not the other dates.

Question, are you just wanting to show the dates on the template of the page you linked to?

If yes, the only way to do that is update the template as the older version of cMap you have installed ins’t “aware” of the other date fields.

It is a free update that can be downloaded via your Purchase History page. Please be sure to carefully following the installation/update instructions as the method used to install templates has changed.

I hope that helps.

By default Connections will run in multisite mode when installed activated on a multisite install. Basically each subsite will have its own unique instance of Connections which is not shared.

You can run Connections in single site mode by adding the following to the wp-config.php file:
define('CN_MULTISITE_ENABLED', FALSE);

Now Connections will share the entry data across the network where Connections is activated.

If you already added entries you will very likely lose them when changing this option and if you don’t and you uploaded image it you will very likely have to upload a new photo. I say likely only because that depends on if you entered data on a subsite site or not vs. entering it on the root site.

I hope that helps!

Clicking update should take you back to the manage page automatically. A white page mean there’s either a fatal PHP error or PHP has exhausted the memory allocation or anther plugin is conflicting somehow.

I would start by deactivating plugins one at a time and test update an entry after each plugin deactivation to see if the issue is due to a plugin conflict.

I also suggest checking the PHP error logs as they might reveal the cause of the issue.

Another item to try is increasing the memory allocated to PHP. This blog post is an excellent resource. Which method that will work for you is dependent on your web host. So, start at the top of their suggestions and work your way down.

I hope that helps.

This doc page show the pagination option. The short version is that using this shortcode will disable pagination:

[connections enable_pagination='FALSE']

Hope that helps.

@ Pat

Well, my first thought is that you have to use a template that allows you to show the bio or notes so you can show the links. So either Slim or Excerpt would work but I think it would be best to modify them so they are open by default so you can show the links [I’m assuming the links will be pretty important]. Hope that helps!

1. I would say cMap. It is also the most popular.

2. Just the templates that feature it. The templates that do will show it in the both the sample and on the template’s demo page.

3. Currently any new addon/templates will be added to the Pro Pack free of charge. The addons/templates would be accessible via your Purchase History page. There will be addon [large one] that will be sold outside of the Pro Pack for full price of the add on. I hope that is clear and make sense.

4. Sorry, currently Connections does not have a method/add-on available to collect payments and manage subscriptions. Workarounds other have used is member plugins such as Restrict Content Pro or s2member to manage subscriptions although that would still mean manual interaction if a member should not resubscribe. I’m not certain I’ll develop an add-on for Connections to do this, rather, if possible, I think I would develop an add-on bridge where a membership plugin would be used to manage subscriptions to the directory. I know this would be possible with Restrict Content Pro but I do not know if other membership plugins would provide the necessary API/s.

5. Sorry, no, not yet. I am working on a custom metabox and fields API for Connections for the 0.8 release due out around abouts the end of November that would allow me to add such a feature more easily. When I could say at this time.

I hope that answers your questions thoroughly.

Actually, yes, there is. See this doc page.

I hope that helps!

@ Dave

The closest plug and ply solution available is the Slim Plus template.

You could modify the template to show the org name. It would be a fairly simple change and, likely, a CSS tweak.

The one item, not showing results until a search is not performed. Currently there is no built in support for that, sorry.

Hope that helps.

@ Tim

The only way to add an option would be to edit the class.options.php file. Search for one of the current two will take you to the right spot:
https://github.com/shazahm1/Connections/blob/0.7.9.3/includes/settings/class.options.php#L873

Just your new option to the array.

Which MySQL client, web base or local app.
