Connections uses the core WordPress user login since it is proven scalable and secure. Connections will not have it’s own login system. So, that said, you can use any plugin for WordPress which adds the ability to login via Facebook. I think one popular one is called Social Login.

Hope this helps!

RE: Can I deactivate the image upload for logo?

• Navigate to the Connections : Templates admin page, click the Customize button for cMap.
• The page will reload with the Customizer on the left and a preview on the right.
• Click the back arrow in the upper left of the Customizer.
• Click the Image panel.
• Disable the Placeholder option.
• Click an entry name in the preview. The Preview will refresh, displaying the entry profile detail view.
• Disable the Placeholder option again.
• This need to be done because the list view and single view are independently configurable.
• Click the Save and Publish button.
• Exit the Customizer.

RE: can we control css of the template?

In the Customizer there are some style options which are configurable. If you are an advanced user and wish to write you own custom CSS, please see the tutorial on Custom Template CSS Override files.

Hope I have answered your question thoroughly!

RE: Is there a chance you can add the year form 1890-1918?

The year drop down in the date picker will auto roll back 100 year from the current year. I do not plan on changing that. What you could do is select the day/month/current year for the older dates and then manually change the year to the correct year.

RE; another question, when you want to add the field configuration for the other elements (Email, IM, Date)?

Email will be added in the next update. Hopefully released next week. Links, IM and Dates will happen in incremental updates either weekly or bi-weekly until they are all added. I do releases this way to limit the scope of possible bug introduction. It easier to locate and fix bugs in smaller code changes than one large set of changes.

Kind regards.

So far this seems to have gone pretty well… on my test install I seem to be able to import your CSV file without issue. I’ve still got some testing to do to help ensure no regressions. Some rather significant changes had to be made for this to work.

Change the map type to HYBRID. That should get you what you want.

@RE: I’ve a way to create pagination for the directory?

Yes, you need one of the premium templates, all which support pagination.

Hope this helps!

Untested, nut I think you should be able to hook into the cn_output_atts_map filter and change the maptype property to SATELLITE. Here’s an example:

add_filter( 'cn_output_atts_map', 'cn_output_atts_map_sat_view' );

function cn_output_atts_map_sat_view( $atts ) {
    $atts['maptype'] = 'SATELLITE';
    return $atts;
}

Hope that helps!

May I delete the existing categorizes/entries so I can import the files fresh?

Two items I noticed:

• It seems requirement #3 for the CSV was not done. This is especially important for Portuguese.
• The max script execution is set to 30 seconds. Connections does attempt to set this dynamically but the host might prevent that from happening. Can you change it to 300? If you do not know how, your web host should be able to quickly and easily make this change. Let me know when it’s done. Here’s a link to a how to I found with a quick Google search. If Connections can not do this dynamically, then method 1 will likely not work either. I suggestion method 3 over method 2 as method 2 could cause a server error 500 if the web host does not support changing it in the .htaccess file.

I took a look at your page, it appears you are using Yoast SEO to add the Facebook Open Graph tags to the page. It looks like it might be possible to hook into that info and add the entry images so Yoast SEO will output the og:image tag. I can look into adding support in the next update.
