Good to know! I had to really think about the solution and even look at the code to see it it might work.

If you have a moment, could you leave a review?

Well, this would be a new one, not sure how that would even be possible. I’m going to need a temp admin account to take a look.

Technically, yes, but the PHP files for Connections would have to be changed so there is not an easy click a button solution. You would have to edit the metaboxNotes() method in the class.form.php file.

Hmmm…

Try adding the category_in shortcode option to your shortcode. So if teachers are category 20, you would add: category_in=20 and if accompanists are in category 30, you would add: category_in=30

I think that should do it. Let me know.

I just posted an update to Tile Plus that fixes a couple shortcode option regressions. It can be downloaded from your Purchase History.

The str_visit_website=’Visit Website’  functionality has changed to bring it alignment with the current Connections feature set. It will give preference to the “Title” of the link, then the link URL unless the the value is set to any value other than “Visit Website”.

That should clear up everything.

The color is being pickup from the theme so we’ll have to override it. Add the following to the end of the theme’s style.css file:

#cn-cmap .cn-entry {
    color: #000;
}

#cn-cmap h3 {
    color: #000;
}

@ Cees

I’m working on testing the release as it does contain other minor fixes.

@ Spinland

I’ll setup a test using your exact shortcodes and get back to you.

As far as the images not loading, can you try on thing? delete the .htaccess file from this folder:  ../wp-content/connection_images/

Let me know if that resolves it for you.

It was working before because on previous versions I was loading the CSS files incorrectly or more accurately, incorrectly for WordPress 3.3 and newer. Not to get too technical, but the on the older versions of WordPress you hooked into an action named wp_print_scripts to load CSS files. On newer versions of WordPress, the proper action is wp_enqueue_scripts.

For some reason wp_enqueue_scripts action is not being run on your site and I believe that might have to do with the theme, but honestly I can not be absolutely certain. What I do know is that when I changed the action name to wp_print_scripts , it worked, and that was the only change I made. I suspect you might run into this with other plugins.

I think most errors were being created by the Builder framework. If it is actively supported, report the errors, I’m sure they’ll correct them as most are minor, but it could be anyone of those minor errors causing the issue.

Connections should work fine with any properly coded theme, so I can really recommend any in particular. Most issues are simple CSS conflicts or the theme loading an older version of jQuery rather than the version bundled with WordPress.

Hope that helps.

You need to upgrade to cMap 3.0.1. This is a free update and can be downloaded from your Purchase History. Please take note to the special upgrade instructions.
