re: I need to change to about 155*124px landscape- how do I tweak the template so those images fit?

Here’s the doc that explains how to change the image size. Make sure to read the exception notes about Tile Plus. If you change the image size, then you’ll need to adjust the tile size which leads me to the answer to your next question…

re: Also, this would require a two column layout – what is the shortcode for that?

Here’s the doc for how to change the tile size. There is no specific short code to enforce a specific number of columns. The number of columns is directly related to the content width of the theme. So if the content width of the theme will allow 4 wide, then you’ll get 4 columns. NOw, if you have a responsive theme, the number of columns will depend on the content width of the theme based on the screen size of the visiting user. So, you will not have any real control in a responsive theme. My suggestion is to pick a tile size that fit the content within the tile nicely and let the number of columns be what they are on whatever screen size and content width of the theme be as they are.

Hope that helps.

Sorry, but there is no way to make fields required other.

The method that was used to migrate the site did not properly bring over the WordPress capabilities (WP ties them to the domain). I’ve reset the roles/capabilities for Connections which adds the appropriate capabilities and things seem fine in that regard.

Looking at the manage page, there are many errors about images which can not be found. It seems the ../wp-content/uploads/connections-images/ folder was not migrated from the old site to the new. You’ll have to move copy it to the new site using FTP.

Hope that helps, let me know.

ps. I recommend using BackupBuddy or Duplicator to migrate a site as they properly take care of things like this.

There is no direct way, but, You could use a a plugin which exports the user data as a CSV file and then use that CSV file with the CVS Import extension to import the user data.

Hope that helps, let me know.

ps. The users will have to have a first and last name in order to be imported. I mention it because WP does not require those fields but Connections does.

@ Mike

I’ve added this to my feature request list. Timing wise… this will not likely happen before I add settings to define which fields should be shown and whether they should be required or not.

Navigate to the Connections : Settings admin page and click the Licenses tab. Make sure you have your support license key entered and activated for SiteShot. After you do, you should be able to update.

Hope that helps, let me know.

re: That worked for the char on the right. Can we do something like that for the search

After some experimentation this code snippet will work:

add_filter( 'cn_permalink', 'cn_permalink_team' );
add_filter( 'cn_form_open_action', 'cn_permalink_team' );

function cn_permalink_team( $permalink ) {
    $permalink = $permalink . '#team';
    return $permalink;
}

However, for this code to work, it required a tweak to Connections which in turn require an update. I made this tweak and will likely release this update early next week. So if you update your code snippet to the latest code it should just automagically work when the update is applied.

Sorry, but you will not be able to use Gridder in an accordion. The issue is because Gridder needs to set the row length based on the container width (the object Gridder is within). It does this using javascript… if the container has no width, like when inside a collapsed accordion the width will be zero and you will end up with the result you are seeing. Sorry, but there is no way around this without a custom developed accordion that would “inform” Gridder of the correct width when being opened.
