Sorry, no, there is no feature like this builtin into Connections. That said, I see no reason why this could not be custom coded as an addon to meet you needs. It should not be too difficult if you are a PHP dev. Hope this helps!

Use the CSV Export All Tool to export the directory to a CSV file. This file can be opened into Excel. You can then se MS Word and do a mail merge using the CSV file opened in Excel as the source data.

Hope that helps!

Sorry, no, there is no easy way to alter the default setting of the relationship drop down.

Not exactly as shown in the attached screenshot.

I do have an advanced search addon available to those who purchase either the pro pack or extension pro pack and request it. It’s not generally available due to it being a complex to setup, so I do offer setup as a service. If you know shortcodes very well, it is really not that difficult. I can provide it and instruction if you purchase one of these those bundles. You can see an enable of it running on this live 3rd party site:

This can be done with hooking into the cn_family_relation_options filter. Sample code:

add_filter( 'cn_family_relation_options', 'my_family_relation_options' );

function my_family_relation_options( $options ) {

    unset( $options['husband'] ); // remove option
    $options['head-of-household'] = 'Head of Household'; // add new option
    return $options;
}

The options are found here:

Hope this helps!

RE: Could you explain how I could sponsor a modification?

I offer custom developed solutions. A feature such as exporting the family relationships, as shown on your one screenshot, I would add to the free core plugin for all to benefit. If you would like a quote, please contact me using the link at the very bottom of the page.

Thanks!

@ Janet

Ok, great to hear!

@ Javier

Please try taking the steps outlined in this FAQ and then set you s2Member role capabilities on the Connections : Roles admin page.

And…

Could you better define on what exactly does not work? You said; “it works perfectly for admin and subscriber roles etc, but not S2member roles“. So it is not really clear as to what is not working correctly.

@ Javier

Navigate to the Connections : Roles admin page and configure the capabilities that should be assigned to your s2member roles.

Hope that helps!

RE: I entered a destination home page, nothing shows up there.

Please see Step 4 in the Quick Start tutorial.

RE: there are many fields that I prefer not to display.

Empty fields will not be displayed, so, if you leave them empty, they will not be displayed.

RE: my custom field doesn’t show up.

What custom field?

I assume you’re referring to the tutorial on how to add a custom text field?

What is the code you used to register it? Did you follow the instructions on how to edit the template code in order to display it?
