I recommend against setting any folder permission to 777. I would use 755 and only if needed use 767.

You would not use the legacy template installer for your template. Please follow the template installation instructions on this page. The short version is that you should install and activate the template as a plugin, it will then show up on the Connections : Templates admin page. You would not use the /connections_templates/ folder because that is only to support legacy templates.

As for the installation issues with the plugins, it seems somehow that WordPress is thoroughly confused and has left files laying around from past install attempts.

My suggestion, it should be safe to completely empty the /wp-content/upgrade/ folder. However, make a backup of the files within and then delete everything and try installing again.

It seems either the theme or another plugin is altering the load order of the CSS and JavaScript files. I would start by disabling Plugins one at a time until you isolate the plugin. If that does not work, then it is the theme. If that is the case, hopefully the dev of the theme has an option in the settings to disable this functionality. I imagine that this will cause a lot of trouble for most plugins.

Two things…

You had template=”card-bio” set as a shortcode option, this will override any activated template, so I removed that. However, cMap was still not being used. That is because list_type=’organization’ was set as a shortcode option. Connections will then use the template that is activated under the “Organization” template type; which was set as the Card Bio template, so I activated cMap. This is intended behaviour but can be confusing so I’m going to add an option to the settings under the Display tab so this functionality has to be specifically enabled. I think that would make it less confusing.

Anyway, hope that helps.

If you have a few moments, please leave a review. It would be greatly appreciated!

Sorry, but there is nothing I can do about that, those are limitations to of MySQL and not Connections. The default character is usually 4+ characters so you webhost must have setup MySQL to allow 3+ character searches.

Yes, the user can change their password as often as they wish, that will not have an affect on the account link.

Use the contact form at the bottom of the page and I’ll reply back with the mail.

We can use CSS to add the title like so:

#cn-list .title:before {
    content: 'Job Title: ';
    font-weight: 700;
}
#cn-list .organization-name:before {
    content: 'Department: ';
    font-weight: 700;
}

@ Adam

Nope, not confused, I know exactly what you’re asking. I guess officially that would be a no … however …

I attached an add-on plugin that should do exactly that, give it try and let me know who it works for you.

And, if you have a few moments, how about a review.

PS, not trying to buy a review. If you leave one, positive or negative, thanks in advance.

@ Mark

The scrip error is not being caused by Connections it is being caused by the global.js script that belongs to the theme.

I’m fairly certain the “$” should be “jQuery”.

Looks like the template CSS was altered, add this:

#cn-tile-plus #cn-list-body{
    clear: both;
}

Add that back in
