Alrighty.

@ Gary

Which version of IE? And, are you using IE compatibility mode or standards mode?

@ Karelle

The bio and notes fields strip tags for security. What you’ll need is a plugin that can create a lightbox effect using a shortcode. I’ve never tested doing something like this but, maybe this plugin will do the trick.

Give it a try and please let me know if it works out. I’ll add it as a FAQ, howto or something.

Sorry no, the import is still server resource bound. I’ve hit many developmental roadblocks in the way I want to implement the “unlimited” CSV imports.

What I do have is an alpha version of the CSV Import which is hugely improved and I continue to tweak. I will uploading an update of the CSV Import as soon as this weekend which contains the stable parts of the alpha. This should increase the number that can be imported per CSV depending on the available server resources. The 0.8 version of Connections that will be released mid to end of November will have a few optimizations that should also have a significant impact on the number that can be imported per CSV depending on the available server resources.

If you have a large CSV file that I can have to add to my testing files I would truly appreciate a copy of it. My largest file only has a couple thousand which I have no trouble importing even though it does take several minutes to import completely.

Looks great!

If you have a moment, I would truly appreciate a review as they really do make a difference. Many thanks in advance!

Pretty cool CSS3 trick and it is very versatile which can make it a bit hard to understand.

Yeah, that is a bit more difficult to get rid of…

#cn-org-unit label:nth-of-type(2) {
    display: none !important;
}

That should do it but is not IE8 or less friendly; meaning it will not work.

How about just a bit of CSS magic to make them disappear instead?

#cn-form div.form-field .address-country {
    display: none !important;
}
#cn-form div.form-field .address-geo {
    display: none !important;
}

1. The correct shortcode to show addresses would be:
   [connections show_image='FALSE' show_addresses='TRUE']

When editing shortcode, it best to switch the post editor to the Text tab first; especially if copying from a webpage. When updating the shortcode I recommend doing this and making sure there are no HTML tags mixed in the shortcode from a copy/paste.

Since you are removing the image I recommend adding the following to the end of the theme’s style.css file:

#cn-tile-plus .cn-entry div {
width: auto !important;
}

That’ll improve the layout a bit.

You might also want to read this FAQ on adjusting the tile size.

1. Take a look at this FAQ for cMap. It’ll work just the same for any of the templates that have a category drop down.

To use a different template you just need to use the template shortcode override option. The slug to be used for the template shortcode override can be found on the Connections : Templates admin page.

I hope that helps.

No problem, glad to hear it worked! Looks like I had stray HTML tags in the second option. I removed them so it should work too.
