@ Robert

The CSV correctly imports using the old anniversary/birthday method which did not store years, only month and day. The CSV is undergoing a complete rewrite and should be released in March.

The values are actually stored twice in the database. Once as arrays in the main entry table and the other as actual data stored in separate tables based on the type of data being stored. Those tables are easily identified as they have “connections” in the name.

Why is this stored twice? For performance. The stored arrays can sort of be considered as cached objects. When displaying entry data, the cached objects are used instead of creating multiple queries to the database for each entry being displayed. The actual data is not used unless sorting by those values, doing geo location type queries [a feature not yet exposed] and adding/editing an entry.

I hope that makes sense.

This seems this might be same question that was posted as a comment which I replied to earlier:

If it isn’t … sorry, but the Tile Plus template does not show the notes. The template is designed to present the entry contact details similar to a business card. Exposing the notes would create variable height tile or if the height was force, cutoff details which would ruin the intended design of the template.

No need to bump, I answered the comment you left a little while ago:

@ Jocelyn

If each of the entries returned contains those words, why would that not be a good result?

@ Jocelyn

No PHP edits necessary with 0.7.4. On the Connections : Settings admin under the Search tab, uncheck keyword search.

@ Robert

Thanks for double checking that. I’ll push out and update to fix this bug later tonight. Look for version 0.7.4.1 to hit your dashboard.

@ Robert

I just confirmed the bug with address, however, phone numbers seem to work as expected for me. Can you double check the visibility status for the phone numbers?

@ Sherry

The only way to migrate entries are to export the Connections tables from phpMyAdmin or similar tool as a SQL file and then import the exported SQL into your new site using phpMyAdmin or similar tool. I’ve done it plenty of times, only takes a few minutes.

Oh, one last thing, if you’ve uploaded any images, you have to copy them via FTP and load them up on the new site via FTP in this folder:
../wp-content/connection_images/

Just install the plugins any add-ons and templates as you normally world.

NOTE: Make sure you do the SQL import before activating Connections for the first time. If you’ve already activated Connections, you have to drop the Connections tables before you do the import.

Hope that helps.

@ TJOFS

Deactivate the plugin, then login to phpMyAdmin or similar tool and drop all the tables that before with wp_connections and finally just reactivate the plugin. If you’ve made any edits to the plugin files, make sure to install a fresh version of Connections.

NOTE: the “wp_” might be something else depending on your setup. Let me know how it goes.
