Outlook the app or web client? I suspect it is MS being “helpful”, again. They do all sorts of things that makes one scratch their head. I suspect since you are receiving the email they display your name because it must be to you if you’re receiving it.

Can you attach a screenshot of the original email headers? Here’s how to find it:

No, I understand what you are asking. Using your screenshot as an example. And, assuming you set the email address for R**** N**** as your email address s****@h*stde****ts.com. The email will be sent to:

s****@h*stde****ts.com <R**** N****>

The name R**** N**** will be displayed in your email app/client in the To field. Now, assuming all the entries in Connection have been set to your email address, each individual entry name will be displayed in your email app/client in the To field.

Which email app/client do you use?

RE: Anyway to accomplish that?

Well, that would be a function of the email app you are using. In Gmail on the web, the To field is displayed right underneath the From name (assuming you have the inbox configured to display the email preview).

The To field exists as it is how you actually receive the email.

Hope this helps!

It seems the page stops rendering right after the page title and the server responds with error 500. This suggest a fatal PHP error is occurring.

I see you have cMap version 5.3.1 installed, but, with Connections 8.5.17. That is almost three years old. So, it is possible that the newer version of cMap is not compatible with such an old version of Connections. So, it is possible this is the cause of the server error 500.

I would suggest updating Connections. If this is not something you are not prepared to do. I can did thru my archives for an older version of cMap and send it to you. Let me know.

@ Craig

I just set you an email with the download link and installation instructions. Please let me know if you do not receive it.

I see a Form license ending ddd3 in you account with an expiration of 1/30/2020. The expiration date shown in your admin is cached locally for a short period of time and may not immediately reflect the updated expiration date. If more than a day has passed and you do not see the updated expiration date, let me know. Also let me know if this actually relates to a different license.

Hope this helps!

Navigate to the WordPress Permalinks settings admin page. Remove index.php from the permalink structure. Save the changes. Now the links will be compatible with Connections and as a bonus your links will now be SEO friendly.

Hope this helps!

@ Wes

This is possible, but would require a PHP filter. Install the Code Snippets plugin. Add a new snippet with the following code:

add_filter( 'cn_family_relation_options', 'custom_cn_family_relation_options' );
function custom_cn_family_relation_options( $options ) {

    $options['head_of_household'] = 'Head of Household';

    return $options;
}

Save and activate the code snippet. after you do, this will appear as a new option.

Hope this helps!

@ Seth

Are the emails being sent to you somehow instead of each individual? If they are, did you accomplish this by setting the individual entry email address all to your email address? If that is what you did, the original entry name would still be populated in the To field.

Changing the subject like you are asking would require some PHP changes to the plugin. Is this something you would feel comfortable doing?

@ Cole

Update your client to Gridder version 1.2. Add enable_panel=false to the existing shortcode and save the changes. Using this option set to false removes the slide open panel. And, the image itself becomes the direct link to the entry profile page.

Hope this helps. Let me know!
