@ Jeremy

Hmmm… looking at the code (which is pretty darned old), it could definitely be a bit more robust in case of errors. I’ve made the necessary changes to hopefully ensure this error is no longer possible. I’m planning on releasing an update on Friday which will include this tweak.

Apologies for the trouble!

ps. Please do let me know if the update does not fix the issue for you.

I’m guessing you have figured it out, correct? When I visit the trade directory I see that the cMap template is being used.

What was the issue?

No custom CSS needed. You can make this change via the Template Customizer (new to cMap >= 5) for cMap. Here’s how:

• First, you may want to remove the custom CSS you have already applied. I suggest commenting it out rather than deleting it.
• Navigate to the Connections : Templates admin page.
• Click the Customize button for the cMap template.
• The page will reload with the Customizer on the left and a preview on the right.
• Click the back arrow in the upper left of the Customizer.
• Click the Style panel.
• Change the style and color options to suit.
• Click the Save and Publish button.
• Exit the Customizer.

I hope that helps!

ps. could be a good time to play with the other options in the Customizer to see all that is available.

pss. if you have any of the cMap shortcode options set, those will override the options set by the Customizer.

Adding show_categories=false to the existing shortcode on the page where you do not want them to be displayed should remove them.

Hope that helps!

Two things come to mind… a plugin or theme conflict or a large number of entries on the page.

The easier of the two… how many entries are you listing on the page? If is a larger number, you can try limiting it to only 10 by using the limit shortcode option. Here’s an example:

[connections limit=10]

Set the limit and then try to Customizer. If it works then the resources allocated on the server for PHP were being exhausted when trying to run the Customizer of a page with lots of entries. Make your desired changes, save and publish them, and then remove the limit.

To determine if it is a theme or plugin conflict, here are links to the two relevant FAQs with more detail.

• How do I check for a theme conflict?
• How do I check for a plugin conflict?

I hope this helps! Let me know what you find out.

re: Is the ‘user_login’ name or user ‘ID’ available as a variable on card.php?

No, they are not, but they are not needed as you can use the core WP functions to get them.

• get_current_user_id()
• wp_get_current_user()

@ Mike

Sorry, no, you cannot have two “forms”. Now, that said… adjust the code snippets so the custom fields are only registered when the current user only has a specific role or capability that way they are only displayed to those users. Hope that makes sense!

@ Bruce

It sounds like another plugin wiped/reset the custom role/capability permissions. s2member is does this on its updates. Here’s a link to a FAQ that’ll help you reset the custom Connections role capabilities.. The FAQ is targeted towards s2Member but the instructions will work just fine in resetting the roles/capabilities. After you do this you will regain access to the admin pages.

Hope that helps, let me know.

True, per the spec, but the only valid values are: 'internet', 'x400', 'pref', 'dom', 'intl', 'postal', 'parcel', 'home', 'work' with internet being the default valid as far as I can tell in my research. So, what is being output is not a bug, but not as specific as it could be in order to allow wider support for importing the vcf.

@ Sarah

Sorry, no, there is no way to Import pictures at this time. I’ve done some of the backend work required to do this but I have not yet connected the various pieces.
