What path are you putting the files in? Also, the (1) in each file name is not correct. They will not be recognized as valid template files in Connections.

Well, it looks like you made it larger by adding the following CSS:

#cn-circled input#cn-search-input {
  height: 32px !important;
  font-size: 18px !important;
  line-height: normal !important;
}

#cn-circled input#cn-search-submit {
  height: 32px !important;
}

#cn-circled span.cn-search {
  margin-bottom: 16px !important;
  text-align: center !important;
  display: block !important;
  float: none !important;
}

I suggest editing this CSS to make it the size you wish. For example, the font-size of the “share” text is 18px, a left/right margin of 10px and a top/bottom padding of 10px. So changing it to this would be you closer:

#cn-circled input#cn-search-input {
  height: auto !important;
  font-size: 18px !important;
  line-height: normal !important;
  margin: 10px 0 !important;
  padding: 10px !important;
}

#cn-circled input#cn-search-submit {
  height: 43px !important;
  margin: 10px 0 !important;
}

#cn-circled span.cn-search {
  margin-bottom: 16px !important;
  text-align: center !important;
  display: block !important;
  float: none !important;
}

Hope that helps!

You would download the zip file by clicking the green download button and then install that zip you would any other WP plugin by click the Add New plugin link in the WP admin.

Hope that helps!

RE: Hide category

A possible solution is to create a “Featured” parent category with a child of “Martial Arts”.

You can display that category ID to show just your featured entries and for the regular entries you can display the category as you are now.

So, the difference is that you are moving the feature entries to the own parent child tree.

Hope this makes sense!

RE: category redirect

Correct, the code snippet does not work in this context. That is only for when filtering by category via the drop down filter available in the premium templates.

Here’s a free addon for Connections for advanced users which may do what you require:

Hope that helps, let me know!

@ Vincent

Sorry, no, there is not a user sort feature available.

@ Jess

I took a look at the page, it appears you’ve already figured out how to make it larger. Is that correct or am I not understanding correctly?

@ Rich

Yes, since you are using the cMap template… navigate to the Connections : Templates admin page and click the Customize button for cMap.

The page will reload displaying the Customizer on the left and a preview on the right. Enable the display of the categories and click the Publish button. If you wish to also display this on the single entry profile view on cMap, follow the instructions above the list in the preview and enable the category option again.

Hope this helps!

There is not a way to remove all at once, but, there is a bulk delete feature on the Connections : manage admin page. Click the checkbox in the upper left of the table. This will select all entries on the current page. Now select the Delete option from the Bulk Actions drop down and click the Apply button. Doing this a few times and you’ll be able to delete all.

Hope this helps, let me know.

Sure you could do a text replacement on the url column in the {wpdb-prefix}_connections_link table.

The problem is that data is also cached in the primary “{wpdb-prefix}_connectionstable in thelinks` column. Since that data is serialized it becomes far more difficult to bulk update. You would have to right a custom PHP function to iterate over each and apply the update.

Another option would be hook into the cn_link filter. The passed value is an array where the address is in the url key. You could check the the existence of the address you need to change and if it exists, apply the change. This does not affect the actual data in the database so it would be more of a band-aid than a fix.

Hope this answers your question!

Please navigate to the Connections : Settings admin page and click the Beta Versions tab. Enable support for CSV Import. Now navigate to the WordPress Updates admin page. Click the “Check Again” button if an update for CSV Import does not show. Install the rc-1 update.

This update provides more user feedback during the import process. It’ll inform you of CSV rows which failed, skipped and updated.

Perhaps for some reason the rows failed to import or skipped.

Let me know if this helps!
