Well, Form/Link is not involved at all in user registration so any plugin designed to handle spam registration should work. I’ve personally used WangGaurd in the post with good success. So, I’d say give it a try.

Hope that helps!

The widget can only search the page set as the Directory home page. To do that navigate to the Connections : Setting admin page and change the page to be the page which your Member Directory is on.

Hope this helps, let me know.

I think I would suggest the cMap template. It has a layout very similar to the Default template. The Template Customizer can be used to change the color to match. I think this would be a good inexpensive solution. WOuld that work for your client?

re: The CSS class on the Select Relation box seems to change every time (div#cn_family_member_1220374488759__relation__chosen); if it isn’t possible to hide via CSS, is this something you can hide via customization?

Yes, that is dynamic, controlled by the library the “enhances” the select drop down. You should be able to hide it with this:

ul#cn-relations div[id$='__relation__chosen'] {
    display: none;
}

re: same with the Add Entry button string?

This could be customized by deregistering the “core” publish metabox and registering a custom one with the text you want. The biggest downside I see to this is if I add remove or otherwise make changes to the publish metabox that is required for Connections to function you would not get those changes because your instance would be using the custom publish metabox. I would expect occurrences like that would be very rare and well, the custom one could be updated. I’ll add this to the quote … working on it.

Forgot to say that the Post Category Height plugin is a good workaround for now, but the setting isn’t retained at a user level and seems to reset if I switch browsers.

This is cookie based, if I remember correctly. So, it should be based per browser, not per user. So it would change between browsers, but should be retained by the browser for a year, unless cookies are cleared.

I suppose some type of custom solution could be developed making it global and/or per user based. I’ll add that to the quote too.

Ok, the database structure is definitely not current. It’s two versions behind. In this case its not all that bad. I can easily correct it but the plugin files are not editable… I was trying to use the WordPress Plugin Editor to force the update. If you can change the permissions on the files so they are writable, I can make the change required to force the database update. Let me know when this is done and I’ll log back in and take care of it.

Alternative, if you can give me a temp FTP login, I can do it that way too.

@ John

The logins do not seem to work. Could you please verify them? Also, you might want to enable the private reply option when replying back with valid login details otherwise you are posting them publicly.

@ Trisha

There is no widget/template option… you could enable the “Category Description” option on the Connections : Settings admin page. When using any of the premium templates and the results list is filtered by category, that description will be displayed above the directory. The category description can contain images.

Does that help?

The custom time format that you are using is not compatible. Please navigate to the WordPress General Settings admin page and choose one of the default time formats. That will fix the issue.

Hope that helps!

@ Jim

That is a WordPress error, not a Connections error… for some reason WordPress was unable to delete the existing file so the update could be installed.

You can try deactivating Connections and then reinstalling the latest version. You data and settings are safe.

If that does not work and you get the same error, you’ll have to login into your site with FTP and manually delete the connections folder found here:

../wp-content/plugins/

Hope that helps, let me know.

@ hatton

Can you please give me temp WP admin login so I can take a closer look? The login details can be posted here as a private reply.
