re: i disable the show link profile so i want to add the organization info and links instead the bio excerpt. is that posible

Well, technically, it is possible but it requires that you edit the PHP of the template.

The file you need to edit is card.php found in this folder:
../wp-content/plugins/connections-circled/

You would remove the code for the bio and copy the code for the org info and links from the card-single.php file found in the same folder.

If you decide to edit the template, please read the tutorial on custom template override files so your changes are update safe.

Hope that helps!

@ Carolin

Yes, I received it. Looking over it now. I’ll reply shortly.

Looks like it is working correctly. You need to get Google Maps API Keys from Google in order for the maps to display. Here’s a link to the tutorial.

Hope that helps!

Sorry, I have no plans on this at this time.

I worked on this all afternoon and now I think the display is quite nice, much, much better than the simple list that it was originally. Looks good on mobile too!

Oops, forgot…

re: The other issue that is vital is that me must have the capability to control the order in which hotels appear on the hotels page. It cannot be alphabetical; we list them according to current TripAdvisor ratings, and change them periodically according to TripAdvisor.

See the Custom Entry Order extension. That should do it.

re: Connections Issues

So, here are no actual issues? Correct?

re: In the directory listings can the default view be edited to just show the bio content automatically, instead of making the viewer click “SHOW BIO”?

Sorry, not this can not be done without editing the PHP template file for cMap. The file to edit is the card.php file found in this folder:
../wp-content/plugins/connections-cmap/

If you choose to edit the file, then I recommend reading the template override file tutorial.

re: along the same lines, I think it’s redundant to show words “Home” “Work Phone” “Website” etc.

You can choose to remove the labels if you wish by using the Template Customizer for cMap. Navigate to the Connections : Templates admin page and click the “Customize” button. The page will reload with the Customizer on the left and a preview on the right. Click the back arrow in the upper right of the Customizer and then click the Advanced panel.

Change the Address Format to:
%line1% %line2% %line3% %city% %state% %zipcode% %country%

Change the Phone Format to:
%number%

Change the Link Format to:
%title%

Change the rest as desired and then click the Save and Publish button. You can now exit the Customizer.

Hope that helps!

@ henney

The following strings, you need to translate the connections_link.pot file using POedit.

• view my directory entry
• edit my directory entry

The file can be found in this folder:
../wp-content/plugins/connections-link/languages/

The following strings, you need to translate the connections_form.pot file using POedit.

• submit new entry

The file can be found in this folder:
../wp-content/plugins/connections-form/languages/

This already appears to be translated to “Verstuur” for the Dutch (Netherlands) translation.

There is no “return to directory” string, but if you mean “Go back to directory.”, that can be translated on Transifex which already appears to be done for the Dutch (Netherlands) translation.

@ Chris

Enable the profile display mode by adding link=true to the exsting [connections] shortcode. Then you can enable the “Add to Addressbook” entry action.

Hope that helps! Let me know.

@ Harold

Nearly all styling is inherited from the theme… the only thing that is not is the vertically centering of the post title to the image. So, the mobile ugliness is inherited from the theme. If the theme’s latest posts styling is mobile friendly, then perhaps after I make the tweaks HTML layout tweaks to match the latest posts it will look better.

Can you please send me FTP access for you site? It will make editing far, far, easier and quicker. The login details can be posted here as a private reply. Thanks!
