@ Virginia

Just visit the Connections : Templates admin page. As a suggestion, I recommending setting up your site so error messages are put in the error_log file rather than shown on the site. If you not familiar with how to do that, your host should be able to help.

@ Mathew

To which feature are you referring to? If you mean Link, the same reply I gave in the previous reply applies.

Hope that helps!

@ mark

I’m assuming you purchased Link, yes?

The link is in the upper right corner where it says Howdy, User Name.
If you want the link some where else, copy/paste the URL. It’ll be something like:

http://domain.tld/wp-admin/users.php?page=connections_link

You would change domain.tld accordingly.

I looked at the site and its CSS, the widgets are using all the styles from the theme as they should. They actually do not come with any styling of their own so everything has to be inherited from the theme.

The front page:

The “Recent Directory Additions” are using the following styles from the theme:

.main-title { background:url(images/title-bg.png) repeat-x; height: 42px; line-height: 42px; font-size: 13px !important; text-transform: uppercase; color: #48423f; text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #ffffff; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; padding-bottom: 0; font-family: 'Droid Sans',Arial,Verdana,sans-serif !important; }
.recent-content { background:url(images/recent-content-bg.png) repeat-y top right;margin-top: -1px; padding: 29px 32px 38px 35px; }
html, body, div, span, applet, object, iframe,
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, blockquote, pre,
a, abbr, acronym, address, big, cite, code,
del, dfn, em, font, img, ins, kbd, q, s, samp,
small, strike, strong, sub, sup, tt, var,
b, u, i, center,
dl, dt, dd, ol, ul, li,
fieldset, form, label, legend { margin: 0; padding: 0; border: 0; outline: 0; font-size: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; }
a { text-decoration: none; color: #00b7f3; }
span.fn, span.fn a { font-size: 22px; color: #48423f; text-decoration: none; }
span.fn a:hover { color: #111; text-decoration: none; }

The “Directory Categories” are using the following styles from the theme:

.recent-middle { width: 318px !important; }
.recent-last { width: 321px !important; }
.recent-last .recent-content { background: none !important; }
.main-title { background:url(images/title-bg.png) repeat-x; height: 42px; line-height: 42px; font-size: 13px !important; text-transform: uppercase; color: #48423f; text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #ffffff; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; padding-bottom: 0; font-family: 'Droid Sans',Arial,Verdana,sans-serif !important; }
#comment-wrap .main-title { margin: 0 -37px 12px -39px; }
.recent-content { background:url(images/recent-content-bg.png) repeat-y top right;margin-top: -1px; padding: 29px 32px 38px 35px; }
ol, ul { list-style: none; }
html, body, div, span, applet, object, iframe,
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, blockquote, pre,
a, abbr, acronym, address, big, cite, code,
del, dfn, em, font, img, ins, kbd, q, s, samp,
small, strike, strong, sub, sup, tt, var,
b, u, i, center,
dl, dt, dd, ol, ul, li,
fieldset, form, label, legend { margin: 0; padding: 0; border: 0; outline: 0; font-size: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; }
a { text-decoration: none; color: #00b7f3; }
a:hover { text-decoration: underline; }

The issue seems to be that the widgets use the standard WP markup for categories but the theme does provide specific styles for them. The theme is primarily using the following style for widget lists:

.widget { width: 230px; padding: 30px 25px 30px 44px; }
	.widget ul li { background:url(images/sidebar-bullet.png) no-repeat 0px 8px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 15px; display: block; font-size: 13px; font-family: 'Kreon', Arial, sans-serif; text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #ffffff; }
.widget ul li a { color:#a1a6a6; text-decoration: none; }
.widget ul li a:hover { color:#111111; }
.widget ul li a {
    color: #665858;
    text-decoration: none;
}

However, these styles are not being used in the theme’s front page “Recent” area.

On the directory page. The “Recent Directory” widget is using the above styles, but it also has the following which overrides the font style which is why it is so big.

span.fn, span.fn a { font-size: 22px; color: #48423f; text-decoration: none; }
span.fn a:hover { color: #111; text-decoration: none; }

The above style is being applied because the name of the entry has the fn class. That is the only class that is being output by the widget that isn’t standard markup for categories. That markup is provided so user and theme authors can provide CSS just for individual and organization names in widgets. Which this theme seems to provide in this case.

You can fix this easily by reusing a few of the theme styles and changing a couple selectors…

Add the following to the end of the theme’s style.css file, or, alternatively if the theme has one its custom CSS area.

.cn-widget li, .cn-cat-tree li {
	background: url(images/sidebar-bullet.png) no-repeat 0px 8px;
	padding-bottom: 10px;
	padding-left: 15px;
	display: block;
	font-size: 13px;
	font-family: 'Kreon', Arial, sans-serif;
	text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #ffffff;
}
.cn-widget li .fn, .cn-cat-tree li.cat-item {
	font-size: 13px;
}
.cn-widget li a, .cn-cat-tree li a, .cn-cat-tree li.cat-item, .cn-cat-tree li.cat-item a {
	color: #48423f;
	text-decoration: none;
}

That’ll fix it up nicely.

Ok, same instructions but you would delete the files from this folder:
../wp-content/plugins/connections/templates/card-tableformat/

@ roy

That sounds about right. The LIKE query is OR. Making it AND makes the query results to small by being too specific.

FULLTEXT is multiterm, just not across fields. Entering “Oceanic” and “Moscow” would yield results for only entries that contain both terms in the same field. Since one term is in the organization field and the other is in the city field would equal no results.

[Steven Zahm]

@ Philip

The you must be using a template other than the Default Entry Card template. Which one are you using?

[Steven Zahm]

@ Mike

Sorry, no, the import does not support importing into a hierarchy at this time. My suggestion is to do your import so the cats are created and linked to the entries and after the import edit the categories creating the hierarchy that you require. There’s no need to update any entries as the category relationship are separate from the entry assignments.

I hope that helps.

@ Trevor

The custom ordering is fairly robust. Here’s the link to the doc page.

Hope that helps!

Change this line:

echo '<h3 class="cn-accordion-item" id="cn-accordion-item-' , $uuid , '" data-uuid="' , $uuid , '"' , ' style="border-bottom: ' , $atts['color'] , ' 1px solid; color:' , $atts['color'] , ';"><span class="cn-sprite" id="cn-toggle-' , $uuid , '" style="background-color: ' , $atts['color'] , ';"></span>' , $entry->getNameBlock( array( 'format' => $atts['name_format'], 'link' => $atts['link'] ) ) , '</h3>';

To this:

echo '<h3 id="cn-accordion-item-' , $uuid , '" data-uuid="' , $uuid , '"' , ' style="border-bottom: ' , $atts['color'] , ' 1px solid; color:' , $atts['color'] , ';"><span class="cn-sprite" id="cn-toggle-' , $uuid , '" style="background-color: ' , $atts['color'] , ';"></span>' , $entry->getNameBlock( array( 'format' => $atts['name_format'], 'link' => $atts['link'] ) ) , '</h3>';

That should do it.
