After a quick search I found two other users who use Jupiter:

• https://connections-pro.com/support/topic/conflict-with-jupiter-theme/
• https://connections-pro.com/support/topic/state-fields-not-populating/

Neither of these users had the issue you’re encountering.

I spent more time looking at your site… it seems there is a whole section of custom CSS code. I copied pasted it here for reference.

If I remove that code by live editing it in Chrome, the drop down works just fine… So, you’ll have to review this custom CSS code and tweak it so it does not break the drop down. Hope that helps!

@ Clyde

Sorry, no, this is not possible at this time.

@ Cristina

Thanks for the config files and the CSV export of your directory but unfortunately this does not help me help you.

• Do you have a backup of the site from before you upgraded Connections?
• If you have a backup, can you let me know the version of Connections you upgraded from?
• How good are you at editing PHP code? If you are comfortable, I could give you some changes to try.

Please, please, please answers these questions, thanks!

@ Laurie

RE: Please tell me that there’s an easier way than manually making this change to over 1,000 listings!!

Yes, there is a much easier way… first I need to know more about your setup. Lets reset.

• Deactivate the Say What plugin. It is no longer required for changing address labels since I built this into the Connections Settings a few months ago. If you are using it to change other strings, then leave it active and delete all relating to the address field types.
• Attach a screenshot showing the Address Types section under the Fieldset Configuration tab on the Connections : Settings admin page.
• What is the exact shortcode you are using on the directory page?

Is Matt and Tim the same person??? I just realized I might be speaking to two different people. Sorry that I missed that!

@ David

Thanks! I’m working on releasing this for everyone. Here is the GitHub repo:

@ Ferradini

RE: is there a solution to export cards with layouts, such as they appear to the screen on the web site, in a PDF file ?

Well, if you open the directory page in Chrome, you can save the page out as PDF.

RE: is it easy to translate the titles of the posted fields ? And without it disappears in every update ?

A good portion of Connections is already translated into French. Here’s a link to the documentation which explains how you can help translate any missing strings. Alternatively you could use the Loco Translate Plugin.

Many of the extensions would still need translated which you could use the Loco Translate plugin to translate too. You would only have to make sure you save the translation outside of the plugin folder so it would not be lost on updates. Loco Translate provides that as a option. You could also send me your translation and I would include them with the extensions that way they would not ever be lost.

Hope I have answered your questions thoroughly!

@ Celia

Which theme are you running and which version? I suspect it has a feature to enhance select drop downs. The category drop down in Connections already uses a library to enhance it (that is how it is searchable).

The couple times I’ve run into this in the past is that there was a setting within the theme to turn off its enhancement of drop downs or a way to exclude specific drop downs by ID.

If you do not see such an option, perhaps the theme’s support people can point you to where the option is or a way to exclude applying their library to all drop downs.

Let me know what you learn.

@ Heike

please read this FAQ about that Google Maps error message.

Hope that helps!

@ Phil

Sorry, no, there is not. This get requested once or twice a year so it is on my radar but not a priority.
