Ok… that is the core Connections styles… so I was not looking at the right content. I see what you mean.

I’m not longer able to login to verify but it seems you disabled the core Connections CSS styles. To enable them again, navigate to the Connections : Settings admin page and click the Advanced tab, scroll to the bottom and enable the CSS option.

Does that help?

@ Bruce

Oh, I just noticed that you have the core Connections CSS disabled? You should enable it. The setting is found on the Connections : Settings admin page under the Advanced tab in the Compatibility section. That option should only really be disabled if you plan on defining your own custom core CSS styles for Connections.

Apologies for the trouble!

I did some searching and the only thing that pops up is when Autoptimize (AO) tried to minify an already minified JavaScript file. Not sure if that was related or not.

Which version of PHP were your running prior? I have automated tested which tests all the way back to 5.3 and I manually do some cursory checks running PHP 5.2 on a live site to make sure no obviously broke.

Could you revert your PHP version real quick with AO and the cached enabled? Then try this URL:

Ok, I logged in and visited this page:

http://kennedycustomguitars.com/member-directory/

It is using the Slim Plus template (formatting) with the shortcode:

[connections image_fallback="none" image="none" category="1,2,3" enable_category_select='FALSE']

Maybe I am misunderstanding … Your originally said:

“I am trying to create a member directory using Slim Plus without any photo and only using three of my 5 categories. When I enter template=’slim-plus’, image_fallback=’none’, and category=’1,2,3′ shortcodes I lose the Slim Plus formatting.

This is the issue I am looking for correct? If it is, the Slim Plus template is being used. Am I confused as to what the issue is? Could you give more details?

@ George

Can you install other plugins? You are following the Step 1: Download and Install directions, correct?

@ Toni

Can you let me know the exact settings you used in the Say What? plugin?

RE: Unfortunately it still appeared :( how long does google keep the indexed pages if the directory was public?

That is up to Google and their crawl rate of your site.

RE: i have also set my search engine visibility setting to – Discourage search engines from indexing this site

You should really enable that option. That will basically get your entire site removed from the Google search index. If that happens, the site might as well not exist.

RE: ok so i tried to log out and googled Lindsay Allen – Church of christ

I did too. I can see your entire directory on this page.

https://churchofchristatgoldhillroad.org/profile/

Which is a little confusion because you sites nav links to this page:

https://churchofchristatgoldhillroad.org/goldhill-member-directory-view/

Perhaps you have embedded the the directory on two pages … which may be what you want … or not.

I know you showed a screenshot showing the option to require a login to view the directory … I would double check to make sure that it is in fact enabled.

If it is, did you enabled either or the “Enable public_override” or “Enable private_override” options on the Connections : Settings admin page under the Display tab. If you did, please disable them.

What is your exact shortcode you are using on both your directory pages? It’s possible if you enabled those two option and then used those shortcode options that you are overriding the require login to view setting.

RE: When I try to install the connections plugin, I get the following error “Are you sure you want to do this? Please try again.” I am using wordpress 4.8

That is a WordPress error. Generally those are triggered when a security feature called an nonce has expired.This can be remediated by refreshing the page and trying do the action action again. These mainly popup for me when WP decides to expire my login session. So I have to login again and redo my action.

RE: Apart from the default fields, do you support custom fields? I need dropbox, checkbox, other custom text fields

Yes, but there is no user interface to add those fields. See this tutorial on how to add custom text fields.

Hope this helps!

RE: The second area where you suggested I use the HTML and Tags I have no idea where I’m to add those.

I’m sorry I do not understand what you are saying/asking. I did a search for other posting using your name but did not find any so I am unsure how to help. You question and my answer above, there is nothing about HTML.

RE: I have a feeling I have screwed up the pages of my directory download.

I took a look at your directory page:

http://www.lochsportcrg.org.au/groups-emergency-accommodation/

Looks fine, I do not see any issues.

RE: Should I have a dedicated Directory page where you can then choose what Category you are after or if I have chosen all and the 2 that I have finally perfected will show up.

I am sorry, but I do not understand what you are asking. Could you give more details?

RE: Have you thought of doing a Youtube video of installations? Is there one available?

Yes, I even bought software to do it with, but time is the limiting factor. doing videos takes a lot of time which there never seems to be enough of.

RE: Very much appreciate your help. I really like the directory it has my website looking really professional.

Thanks!

Hope I have answered your question thoroughly

@ Michael

Looks like on the bad page there is a typo in your shortcode. Edit the page and switch the editor to the Text tab. Review the shortcode for errors. My guess there is an error setting the color.

Hope this helps, let me know.
