A version of Slim will be released, likely next month, that will include a category drop down. You’ll be able to use CSS to hide the image placeholder if you don’t want it.

You can already password protect the directory. The option is on the Connections : Settings admin page under the General tab.

You can use WordPress users to manage the user name password and then use Link to allow users to maintain their entry rather than have email requests sent.

Hope that helps.

Sorry, but I can’t replicate this. Like before, can you send me a sample CSV where addresses are not being imported?

[Steven Zahm]

Both files can be found in the following folder:
../wp-content/plugins/connections/includes

Since you’re using addresses you want to focus in on these two methods; getAddresses and getAddressesBlock.

@ Marna Friedman

The only solution I can think of is create an Awards category and put the various awards under it and then create a Year category and put the various years under that category. Now when you create an entry you would select the award and the years won. But to select them both as a user you’ll have to use an unsupported experimental feature in cMap, enable_category_multi_select. Add that option to the shortcode and set it TRUE, see the example below.

[connections enable_category_multi_select='TRUE']

This will allow you users to select both an award and a year when making category selections.

Hope that helps.

@ Chad Riden

I’ve identified the issue and I’ll push out a fix soon. If you wish, you can send me a temp admin account and I can login make the necessary change.

@ cjohnson

Yes, On the Connections : Settings admin page under the Advanced tab there is a Links sections, check Name and click Save Changes. Now the names will be links.

@ Doug

Yes, private entries can only be view by a logged in user that is registered with the site which is a WordPress user.

To answer you followup question, just put Connections on a page and mark it private and set a password and set the entries to public. No user management required. Only individuals with the password can view that page and therefore Connections. Alternatively, you could create a single user and distribute that user/password and set the directory to require login and leave the entries set as as public. I hope that makes sense.

@ Jason

Many thanks, both are fixed.

@ Jeanne Davis

Ok, I found the issue and made the necessary edit. The menu item now shows as it should.

@ Alice Hohl

I see you purchased the Pro Pack, there’s forum just for that. Go ahead and post your questions there.
