The issue is that you’re embedding a form within a form … the entry list and single entry are wrapped in a form that is used by Connections.

I think … the simple solution would be to instruct the template to close the form sooner, that you the CF7 form is not wrapped in a form.

If the excerpt-plus.php file try changing this line:

add_action( 'cn_action_list_after-' . self::$template->getSlug() , array( __CLASS__, 'formClose'), 11 );

To this:

add_action( 'cn_action_list_before-' . self::$template->getSlug() , array( __CLASS__, 'formClose'), 99 );

Now, you will either have to move the pagination control to the top of the list OR just hide the input box using CSS. The reason is because this input would not longer be within the Connections form and would no longer work, but the next/previous links will still work fine.

Hope that helps, let me know.

1. Sure, come here and ask. If I can, I’ll will definitely provide guidance and CSS examples of what to do.

2. Personally, I do dev work on a live server in a test partition so I’ve never tried using xampp. Really, I don’t see any reason why it would not work.

There is not a %title% token that can be used in the name format. Adding that would break the hCard compatibility markup.

The on way to do this would be to edit the actual core template PHP file.

Is that something you would be comfortable doing? If so, I could provide some guidance.

If you can give me a temp admin account, I can make a slight change that can do exactly that.

After the change, a simple change to the shortcode will do it. Something like this:

[connections image=logo image_fallback=siteshot]

The only downside would be if there is no logo and no website for the entry, the placeholder block will not be there because there would be no fallback for the fallback. Hope that makes sense.

Thanks! That does help a lot. I know what the exact issue is now. Somewhere in the code I’m double encoding the URL. That is causing the the what appears to be repeating 25’s. I’ll hunt that down in the code and make sure the URL is only encoded once. This will make the 0.7.9 release scheduled for release in the next week or so.

Here’s a link how to activate a plugin network wide, basically, do the opposite to deactivate. Just make sure you’re logged in as the Super Admin.
http://premium.wpmudev.org/manuals/wpmu-manual-2/network-enabling-regular-plugins/.

Now, from the My Site adminbar menu, go to each subsite’s DashBoard and then activate Connections from the subsites Plugins admin page.

Not sure how you test buy a membership … but I just logged in created a 00-test entry in Connections with my personal email. I then created a test user WP user. Lastly I logged out and back in as the test user. I did nothing but log out and back in as the admin and the entry and WP user are linked. I left the tests in so you can also verify the link. If you look at the 00-test entry on the Connections : Manage admin page, to the far right it’ll say which WP user it is linked to.

I think I see the issue with the workflow … maybe. Correct me if I’m wrong, but this is your flow:

1. Visitor purchases membership.
2. After membership is purchased, user is already/automatically logged in, right? This could be key.
3. After the purchase the membership they are either automatically redirected to or you direct the member to the page with Form.
4. Member enters info into Form; which self publishes.

If that is the case, I don’t think that’ll work. If the member is automatically logged in Link will check for a match in Connections, since at this point one does not exist, no link will be made and the user “marked” as checked so Link will not try again for that user. Entering detail in Form does not create a link because the intent with Form is to accept anonymous entry submissions into the directory.

What you need to do is have the member enter their info on the “My Directory Entry” page, not thru Form.

1. Slim Plus will automatically shorten to the available content width of the theme. So if a theme reduces it width to fit on mobile, so will Slim Plus.

2. The category select width will be as wide as necessary to accommodate the text within. However, some theme set a min-width that overrides this.

3. If you put them in the bio, sure. Just add the image HTML tags to the bio.

4. Not without editing the core template PHP file. Of course adding anything more than just a name could make mobile viewing an issue unless you use CSS query to hide the extra info on mobile.

5. Only by editing the core template PHP files.

6. Not sure what you mean, sorry. Filter by category links perhaps? The template tag that outputs the categories to which an entry has been assigned does not currently output them as links. That is on my to do list.

Hope that helps!

No, this is not a bug. Currently the index is only in page links to the character groups that exists on the current page of results. Previous version of cMap only listed filtered the index to only show the actually characters on the current page rather than all letters. but many wanted all letters regardless if they worked or not, so I removed the filter. I still personally feel this is poor user experience so I am working to resolve it where clicking the character will actually filter the list by character. I was hope to fit this into the 0.7.9 coming at the end of the month but I’m not sure I’ll get it fit in in time. So it will likely come in version .8.

You can try showing the entire list by turning off pagination support in cMap. You might, run into server resource issue though that could prevent the entire list from being shown.

Hope that helps.
