Which exactly would be great??? You adding the custom address types as I suggested OR me working adding support for your specific use case in the CSV Import add on? It’ll probably take me a week or so to sort out the latter while the former can be done now.

Sure, I provide customization services. Please contact me using the link at the very bottom of the page for a quote.

Ok, I was able to duplicate and determine the issues. Two items I do not think I considered… duplicate column names in the CSV file mapping to duplicate data types. Eg., multiple columns named phone, mapped to the “Home Phone” type. Each in themselves presents an issue and combined make it worse.

The easy quick fix… make sure each column header name is unique and map each column to a unique field type. Eg., “phone, phone 1, phone 3” mapped to “Home Phone”, “Work Phone” and “Cell Phone”. OR Navigate to the Connections : Settings admin page, click the Field Configuration tab and scroll to the Phone Types section. Here you can add additional “home” phone types, such as “Home Phone 1”. You will then be able to map to it when importing. While this will work for the phone numbers, it will not work for the email as I have not yet added the email field types options yet. This will be added in the next Connections update.

I don’t think I’ve ever considered that one would import multiple home phones and such to a single entry.

If your timeline permits, I can work out this issue and update the CSV Import to work correctly in this scenario and then import the file for you. Let me know.

Hmmm… the password seems to be invalid. Could you double check it?

Thanks for the info, but, I still need the login URL. ;)

I applied a hot patch of a tweak included in the next Form update which seems to have fix the issue for you. I suspect the solution is a combination of the tweak applied in the core Connections plugin and the Form add on I just added.

I plan on releasing the next Form update in January so it should be safe for you to update when it is released. Hopefully this is an indication that I’ve finally worked around these very rare cases where the script is not being loaded like it should. I suspect the cause in these rare instances has to do with the way the theme renders the page. Any way, as mentioned, it looks like its good now.

Apologies for the trouble! Thanks for working with me to resolve it!

Sorry, no Connections does not accept payments for listings. I do not plan on adding such features. I recommend you use a membership plugin like Restrict Content Pro to manage membership payments and renewals. This greatly increases your ability to monetize your site where a directory is just one benefit of the user’s membership. There are other directory plugins which do integrate payments, but then you lock yourself into only being able to monetize your directory making it very difficult to expand member benefits.

I see nothing obviously wrong with the file. Can I get a WP admin login and a screenshot of the mapping you are using when importing the file? Details can be posted here as a private reply.

@ Harald

I’ll need a temp WP admin login and a FTP log so I can debug why the script required for Form is not being loaded on your site.

If you have access to the old domain, you would log in to your site and navigate to the Connections : Settings admin page and click the Licenses tab. On that page you can deactivate all the licenses. You will than be able to activate on the new site.

This FAQ, License Activated on Another Site walks you thru the steps you need to do if you no longer have access to the original domain. After you follow those steps you can activate the licenses on your new domain.

Hope this helps!
