I think I solved the issue with the birthdates. I’m converting the time to GMT which, I think, was throwing off the timezone offset. Working with dates and timezones is annoyingly difficult, especially when you throw in internationalization into the mix.

If you’d like, send me the temp WordPress admin account and I’ll take a look…

One thing that still does not make sense is the double date. I’d have to see that.

You need to edit the class.output.php file in the following folder:
../wp-content/plugins/connections/includes/

Look for the getSocialMediaBlock() method.

You can remove the title attribute there.

@ Scott

I’m not 100% certain I follow what you’re asking, sorry. I think there are three questions, right?

The first one, are you just trying to list out the categories assinged to the entry? If yes, all you need is this command: $entry->getCategoryBlock(). This function can be found in the class.output.php file.

With cMap, categories are already searchable. Click the drop down and there is a field to search thru the categories.

If you’re searching for computer or computers both should return results. Here’s demo. Searching for villag dropping the e it returns the results for village.

@ Susan

This was actually a duplicate post … I should have deleted it, sorry. Carlos figured it in his other post.

But to answer you … you need to use the category shortcode option.

@ Meghan

Sorry, there not a way to enlarge the image on the excerpt view without making a lot of PHP edit. However, the enlarging the image in the full bio should be easier … I’m assuming you are referring to the single entry view of the template and not the fade open view.

If you’re comfortable w/ editing PHP.

Edit the card-single.php file found here:
../wp-content/plugins/excerpt

Lines 9 and 10 have the height and width, change them to your desired size.

Of note, you could make a similar change to the card.php file, however, you would have to make several other edits to the CSS to accommodate the larger size. What exactly, sorry, I couldn’t without doing them myself.

Hope that helps.

@ Chris

Really, the only way to do that is to edit the card.php file. Is this something that you’d feel comfortable doing?

Open the card.php file found here:
../wp-content/plugins/excerpt-plus

Delete lines 34 thru 44.

On the old line 46, remove cn-hide.

Save the file and upload overwriting the original.

Of course you should make a backup before making any edits.

@ Phil

You can use the connectionsView() function found in the inc.shortcodes.php file. You can pass it an associative array where all the key names are the shortcode option name and the value of the key is the value of the option you want to set.

Hope that helps.

@ Nalini

Have you referred to this FAQ. It has solutions that work for almost everyone.

I’ll email an very early alpha version of the next release of the CSV import that has worked for everyone even though it is very rough at the moment.

@ Jason

Sorry, there’s nothing available that I can give to save some time. However, you could potentially use the inc.processes.file as a jump off point.

Off the top of my head you could use the processEntry function passing the update action and instead of checking for a file upload you could alter it to a server path and filename you want to import. The tricky part would be that you would need the entry ID for the update action to work. So maybe you could add that to the file name and parse it from the file name in the script or maybe do a sql query parsing the first and last name from the file name to get the entry ID.

Hope that helps.

@ Mike

There is something “floating around” but it does require a little technical know-how.

Hope it does help a little.
