This isn’t a built-in feature of the category widget yet, but it shouldn’t be too difficult to modify it.

You’ll need to open the class.widgets.php from the Widget Pack plugin. You want to edit the function that starts on line 162. The $atts array will be key on line 178, you’ll need to add a key named “parent_id”. This will be an array of the category ID/s of root parent categories that you want to limit the list to. So if you add a text input for the root parent category ID/son the widget settings, you will be able to set them per widget instance.

I hope that points you in the right direction.

It sounds like you might be using the legacy template installer on the Connections : Templates admin page.

All the templates have been upgraded over the course of the month to use a completely new templating system. This requires the templates to be installed as actual plugins.

Here’s the link that has the revised instructions:

You, know I think things are working fine….

The user dgalassi is linked to entry Blue Zenith.

Either this was linked on a previous login where the email addresses matched or you added the entry using the the “My Directory Entry” admin page. Either way, once an user and a entry are linked, they are linked no matter if email address match or not. This is by design because user’s email addresses can and do change. A link is meant to be permanent after created, regardless of the email address.

The user cingadmin is not linked to any entry, no matching email address. Well, there is, but it already belongs to en entry linked to another user, dgalassi. Now, because the user cingadmin has already logged in and no available entry can be linked, it will not be checked for a link again, even if you do later change the user’s email to an entry that is available to be linked, since the user was already checked they will not be linked. I’m definitely reconsidering changing this logic after reviewing this for you. This was done to prevent hijacking a link simply by changing an email address.

As a test, I created a user, shazahm1, and then I create an entry with a matching email address, When I logged in as shazahm1 they were linked as expected.

I even checked all your other users and they are linked as expected. Except for JMoores, which doesn’t seem to have an entry in Connections to link to.

Does this help?

@ Daniel Roberts

Each address and phone number has the option to be set private or not. That can be set when adding/editing an entry. Will that work?

@ Chris Wootton

None of the default/supplied templates have any shortcode options. If you just want to change text, take a look at this post:

Using that method you can change any string in Connections and many other plugins to suit your needs.

Got it, thanks for clearing that up … I thought I was helping someone else with a completely different issue … happens all the time, someone else jump in the middle of an activate discussion with a different issue.

Any way, back on topic, lets try and figure this out…

The last thing I said before I thought I was helping someone else was this:

I have never seen this before. This would be caused by the theme not having the wp_head() in the theme’s header.php file. I’ve looked at the page source and there is evidence that this template tag is in the file like it should be, but could you confirm so we can be certain?

Is see that you’re running a pretty much current version of WordPress, so that is not the issue.

I’m afraid you’ll have to deactivate plugin one by one to see if there is a plugin conflict.

So, two things…

Did you check the header.php file for the existence of the wp_head() template tag? I suspect it is there because the JavaScript’s and other plugins CSS files are being included.

Did you deactivate other plugins one by one to see if there is a conflict as I suggested?

@ Virginia

Oh, here’s the link for template installation and upgrading.

[Steven Zahm]

@ Virginia

Yes, the links in your Purchase History will always be the most current version.

As for the other issue, could I get a temp FTP account?

@ Cees van Dongen

I have a work-around to this issue that will be included in the next release. I say work-around because the URL will not be updated, but results will be returned correctly. I expect to release sometime this weekend.

@ Gregg Snyder

Looks like the zip file corrupted while being downloaded. I suggest down,loading it again from your Purchase History and try again.

Sometimes WordPress can not clean up after a failed install. You might have to delete the tile-plus folder, if it exists, in the plugins folder before you  can install again. You’ll know because it’ll give another error about the folder already existing.
