@ Ed

All you need for this would be the Form extension. After it is installed and configured, it will allow you to accept moderated submissions from your site’s visitors.

Hope this helps!

@ John

There is no need to do any transfer. The templates, for the most part, only change the presentation style of the entries in your database. So, you can freely change templates as often as you wish.

Hope that helps! Let me know.

@ Isabel

In the demo, that is the search field added by the cMap template. It is not the search widget.

Hope that helps!

@ Paul

Thanks and great to hear!

@ Charlotte

None of the extensions are required for cMap.

Hope that helps!

Yes, it is likely a minor CSS conflict with theme or another plugin. If you can share an actual link I can take a look and provide a solution.

RE: Right now the ‘Select Category’ tab looks to long, it goes across the entire page from left to right.

That is due to a style the theme applied globally to select drop downs. Please try adding this to the theme’s custom CSS area:

#cn-cmap form.cn-form select.cn-category-select {
    width: auto;
}

RE: On the “Search Bar” tab, and the magnifying glass on the search bar is not the same size. The magnifying glass is a little smaller than the search bar, I like it too be the same sizes

This also is due to a theme style overriding the template. Add this to the theme’s custom CSS area:

#cn-list span input,
#cn-list span input[type=text] {
    min-height: auto;
}

After these two CSS statements are added that should fix the the display. Hope that helps.

Ok, I’m not going to make any changes because I do not know why this was done…

When I edit the member directory page, I get the Divi Builder. That’s fine. When I edit the Text block… I expect to find the [connections] shortcode. Instead, what I find is the actual HTML the shortcode would output on the page on the site’s frontend.

Is there a reason this was done?

The shortcode needs to be on the page in order for the links to be correctly interpreted by the shortcode. Since there is no shortcode on the page, the links are not going to do anything.

@ Alan

Send me an admin login as a private reply. I’ll take a quick look.

@ Phil

The immediate issue I see is that you have HTML within the shortcode which can cause issues when WordPress attempt to parse it. Edit your page and switch the editor to the Text tab.

Your shortcode should be:

[connections category=19 exclude_category=3 enable_category_select='FALSE']

Does that help?
