Navigate to Connections : Templates admin page and activate the Gridder template for use.

The settings for Gridder are shortcode options. Here’s the link to the Gridder Documentation.

Hope this helps, let me know.

What is/are the message or error messages you are seeing? I suspect you are seeing the “License has not been activated.” message. Click the link right beside it. That will take you to the Connections : Settings admin page Licenses tab. You’ve activated your license key for cMap, which is why it updates, you need to add and activate the license keys for the other items. After you do, them you will be able to update them.

Hope that helps, let me know.

@ Brandyn

Sounds like you need to do Step 4 from the QuickStart. Specifically, adding the shortcode.

Hope that helps, let me know.

Please follow the instructions in this reply to a separate related question you asked, let me know if that helps!

Search looks like it is working fine. The other that show as results have a “Houston” address added to them.

You can do the same for the entry which is not being listed. Another option is to Navigate to the Connections : Settings admin page and click the search tab. Enable the Title option so the title field will be search too since this is what you are using for the “Areas Covered”.

Hope this helps!

There’s no easy way to add the search and category filter on these pages. Something would have to be custom coded. Off the top of my head not sure how I would go about it since they were specifically excluded.

Here’s one thought…

Navigate to the Connections : Templates admin page and activate the Names template under the “All” template type. Now click the “Individual” template type and activate Tile Plus. Doe the same for the “Organization” template type.

Lastly, navigate to the Connections : Settings admin page and click the Display tab. Scroll to the bottom and enable the Signal Entry Template option.

With this setup, this page http://thereni.com/mcne-agents/ will look like the View All page but have the category filter and search. When en entry is clicked, it’ll look just like before.

So, this would get you roughly half of what you are asking for.

Hope this helps! Let me know.

It appears you have installed and activate the support license for cMap, so that is good. lst step is to activate the template. To do this navigate to the Connections : Templates admin page and click the Activate button for cMap.

You can also click the Customize button for cMap to gain access to all of its options.

Hope this helps! let me know.

re: do you offer an overall map where all the entrances of the directory can be seen?

Sorry, no, not at this time.

re: do you offer a mask where the logged user can enter and update himself the entry into the directory (add-on: link?).

Not sure what you mean by mask, but yes, with Link a user can add/edit their own entry.

re: do offer an advanced search where city and other fields can be filled in?

Yes, there is, see the sscit.org site as an example, the “Find A Therapist” section. This is an addon that I sell separately which includes installation and configuration.

re: do you offer rating funcationality (5 stars rating) so user can rate and comment on the entries in the directory?

Sorry, no, not at this time.

re: the templates i can buy from you affect only the connections pluign but not the overall, is that correct?

Correct, they only affect the directory, not the theme.

re: can i customize the colours of the template so they match our desing?

cMap is our most customizable template in as far as colors go. But with CSS and custom template override files you can do pretty anything you’d like as long as you’re familiar with CSS and PHP.

re: is the plugin connected to buddypress right?

Sorry, no, it is not.

re: my question is, i am admin user but i should not appear in the directory, how is this handled? can i exclude several users from appearing in the directory? or only the ones filling the directory entry will appear?

Only the uses that add themselves to the directory with Link will be in the directory.

re: will their directory entry appear as the “profile” section of buddypress or will appear as a separate section?

Sorry, not, it will not.

I hope I have answered your question thoroughly!

@ Jim

What about something like this.

Here’s post with some screenshots.

@ David

Hmmm… you can try the exclude_category shortcode option. That will definitely remove them from the category drop down but I think it will cause you trouble when you attempt to filter by category, clicking one of the Personal categories when they are links. More importantly, you should not really use the category permalinks like the ones the Enhanced Categories adds. So I would suggest turning the drop down back off and use the Category link list or image in in Enhanced Categories instead.
