This is possible but would require editing the PHP file for the template. If you are familiar with PHP, here’s a tutorial that can get you started on tweaking the template.

Hope that helps!

• Navigate to the Connections : Templates admin page and click the Customize button.
• The page will refresh displaying the Customizer on the left with a preview on the right.
• Disable the last updated option in the Customizer.
• Click Save and Publish and then exit the Customizer.

Hope that helps!

RE: is it possible when using the search box (i have the widget extention) that when a user starts to type is autofills and suggests possible matches

Sorry, no, this is not possible at this time. This is asked for from time to time so it is on my feature request list.

RE: I am using the ‘blog’ and would like to change the title to ‘Contact’ I have tried to change the string but it doesn’t seem possible, I tried str_blog=”Contact” but it didn’t work. Is this possible I have been able to make other changes.

The reason the shortcode option did not work is because that is not a supported option. The supported options can be found in the Circled docs, here. That said, you can still change the label. That too is covered in the doc I linked to, here’s the link to how you can change nearly all labels/text in Connections.

Hope this helps!

Ok, that seems to indicate that the WP usermeta which contains their entry ID for those users were lost and/or corrupted when the site DB was moved. For the affected users, look for the WP usermeta with the key connections_entry_id. Do they have the key/value pair? If they do, does the value match their Connections entry ID?

RE: is there a way yet to add a phone number field connected with each address?

Sorry, no there is not yet a way to attach a phone number to a specific address. This is somewhat a niche use case to which a proper solution has not been developed. Others have chosen to to use a workaround by adding a bunch of address types and phone types then grouping their display by type in the template. A proper solution would cost at least a couple hundred whereas the workaround would be less. If you are interested in pursuing either, please contact me using the link at the very bottom of the page.

RE: The biggest need is to have a way to manage chamber members (and their renewals or expiration which vary depending upon when they joined). In our file we have active and inactive members on file.

What you need is a plugin like Restrict Content Pro to manage membership renewals/expiration.

RE: When I went to import into the Connections, there are only 4 fields. … However, when I did the import and used Name for their name, every single business became a new category in the category tab

The import tool you’re using is for importing categories into Connections. To import entries (listings) you need the CSV Import extension.

RE: Wondering if your plugin is capable of doing all that we might require?

I would use a membership plugin to manage the member registration/renewal/expiration. The CSV Import to import your listing with the Link extension to allow you members to edit their entry. The one missing piece is when a membership expires, the admin would have to delist the entry.

Hope this helps!

Question … On the Connections : Settings admin page under the Display tab, have you enabled the “Submit New Entry” option under the Result List Action section?

You need to setup your Google Maps API Key. Here’s the link to the FAQ. And here is the link to the tutorial on how to get and set up your Google Maps API Key.

Hope this helps, let me know.

RE: After i press geocode and save the entry, there is still no map in the listing.

That’s correct, the free templates which come with Connections do not display maps. You’ll need the cMap template (or one of the other premium templates which does support a map).

Thanks for the review!
