Looks like a plugin conflict. Notice when you select a category the page looks like it is loading twice. Something, a javascript from another plugin, is causing that flicker. My guess is sometimes the width for the category is be calculated right at when the page is “blank” so it is be set at a zero width.

I did notice that JetPack is not working for you. Well at least the Photon module (I think).

I suggest trying the plugin conflict test.

There is a lot of javascript be loaded on the page, so just about anything could be causing the page flicker, maybe even the theme.

Hope this helps, let me know.

When you keep mentioning site, do you mean another page on the same site? Or, an actual another website?

You can disable the category select on different pages of the same site by using the enable_category_select shortcode option for cMap. Add enable_category_select=false to the existing shortcode on the page you wish to disable the category filter on.

Hope that helps!

@ Sarah

What is the login info for the new site’s cPanel and the old site’s FTP?

@ Tashina

Nothing jumps out as wrong.

Try this.

Perhaps the custom capabilities for Connections was deleted by another plugin.

Another thing to check, look in the PHP error log to see if there is anything relevant. Before you do add entry or edit an entry with dates so if anything will show in the log it’ll be the newer log items at the end of the log.

You could also install the Query Monitor plugin and see if it shows any DB or PHP errors or notices that might help.

Great to hear!

Yes, the CSS is correct, I’ve tried it on your site … which is where I got it originally :)

I not correctly wrap the CSS code in a code block, I’ve fixed that. So if you did not copy the CSS selector, before, try again.

re: Is there a way to increase the size of the Send button?

The theme’s button CSS can be applied. Add this to the theme’s custom CSS area:

#cnct-email-send button#cnct-send {
    display:inline-block;
    color:#ffffff;
    text-decoration:none;
    margin: 3px 0;
    font-size:18px;
    padding:8px 10px;
    border:0;
    background-color: #dd0000;
    border:1px solid rgba(0,0,0, 0.1);
    border-radius: 10px;    
    /*-webkit-box-shadow: inset 0 1px rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.4), 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
    box-shadow: inset 0 1px rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.4), 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);*/
    background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3), rgba(255, 255, 255, 0) 50%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.12) 51%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.04));
    background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(top, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3), rgba(255, 255, 255, 0) 50%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.12) 51%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.04));
    background-image: -o-linear-gradient(top, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3), rgba(255, 255, 255, 0) 50%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.12) 51%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.04));
    background-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3), rgba(255, 255, 255, 0) 50%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.12) 51%, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.04));
}

re: Is there a way to remove the last line completely, the one that shows “Categories” and “Updated”?

Yes. Navigate to the Connections : Templates admin page. Click the Customize button for the Default template. The page will refresh with the Template Customizer on the left and a preview on the left. Click any entry name in the preview. The preview area will refresh to display just that entry. Uncheck the options to display the categories and last updated. Save and Publish, then exit the Customizer.

Note, this will only work if you setup a directory home page with the [connections] shortcode on it.

re: A would like to have a name on the list for “Everyone”such that when clicked the form comes up but when sent it goes to all the people on the list. Can I do that by creating a new record with a First Name of Everyone then add all the emails in the Email Addresses section?

Sorry, no, this is not possible in Connections. Doing an “Everyone” entry, when the email is sent, it will be sent to only the first email added to the entry, not all.

What you could do is setup an email address on your server and send it to that and when email is received at that address you could add a rule to auto forward. I think you can set up that rule to auto forward to multiple addresses.

Hope that helps!

re: I have managed to get the director appearing in the desired page now. The geocode still doesn’t work however.

Make sure you create you Google Maps API keys. Mapping features will now not work without those keys due to a change Google made. Learn more here. Google did make a change. YOu no longer have to choose the API key type. Simple create two keys. One with no restrictions, this will be the Server API key. The second add a referer restriction following the sample in the tutorial. This key will be the browser key.

re: Is it possible to make the ‘entry’ link to another one of my pages? The idea of my site is a review site. The plan is the user locates the company they want to leave the review for from the directory which them leads them onto another page where they can write a review. is this possible?

You can add links to entries. You could use these to add a link to another page on your site. The alternative would be to create a custom field and template in order to add this feature.

Hope this helps!

Hmmm… not sure how we resolve this in this case. If you can send me the System Info, maybe that will help. Navigate to the Connections : Tools admin page and click the System Info tab. Click in the system info are and it will auto select all the text. Copy the text and paste it in and reply back with it. Make sure to click private reply before submitting.

@ Tashina

This has happened once before a while back … but I can not remember what the fix was. Could you please give me an admin login so I can take a look. The logins details can be posted here as a private reply.
