@ Carlos García Cotarelo

Can I get a temp admin login so I can take a closer look? The details can be posted here as a private reply.

If you edited the cmap.php file, there’s not much that can be done to prevent an update to cMap from overwriting your changes. If you changes where limited to the CSS/JS and card.php and card-single.php then, here’s some docs I have written up that explain where to put the files:

1. http://connections-pro.com/2014/06/04/quicktip-custom-template-override-files/
2. http://connections-pro.com/2014/05/07/quicktip-custom-css-templates/

The short version… put the altered files in this folder:

../wp-content/uploads/connections-templates/cmap/

Connections will load these before/instead of the core cMap files. The exception is the core ‘cmap.php` file.

Hope that helps!

@ Jacques

Apologies for the trouble. I believe I have resolved it and deactivated the old site URL for you.

Hope that helps!

Hmmm… this might work. Install the Code Snippets plugin.

Add a new snippet with the following code:

add_filter( 'cn_permalink', 'cn_permalink_team' );

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

Save and Activate the new snippet.

Hoe that helps. Let me know.

The issue is that Form is out of date. Version, 1.0.2 is installed. To be compatible with newer versions of WordPress, you’ll need to update Form to get the visual editor back (WordPress made a breaking change to the visual editor back in 3.9).

I see your support license is expired. You can renew this to to get the update by logging into your purchase history and clicking the Licenses tab. Once there, you can choose to renew the Extension Pro Pack in order to get access to the lastest versions.

Hope that helps! Let me know.

re: Is there a charge to use this after the initial $19.99 is paid?

There is an option, but recommended, annual renew fee. The initial purchase you’ll get a year of updates and support for Gridder. After that year, you can, optionally, choose to renew the support license for continued support and updates. Gridder will continue to function if you choose not to (unless there is a breaking change in Connections which I avoid doing).

Hope that answers your question thoroughly.

re: I have had that plugin for several months, though, without a problem.

Yes, but I am guessing you just recently updated to WordPress 4.5?

WordPress updated the jQuery included with ti to version 1.12 which fixed a bug.

This line, the one I referenced in my previous reply:

$('a.poplight[href^=#]').click(function() {

Should be this:

$('a.poplight[href^="#"]').click(function() {

Hope that helps to clarify the issue.

@ matteo

The javascript error is breaking cMap. The only solution would to be to ask the theme dev to fix the error in their javascript code.

This is the file with the error on line 2, about 295 characters in:

http://www.coopsociali.it/test_wp_4_5/wp-content/themes/responsive/js/responsive-scripts.js?ver=1.2.0

The error is:

Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: a[href=#scroll-top]

You can see it more clearly in this theme file on line 21:

http://www.coopsociali.it/test_wp_4_5/wp-content/themes/responsive/js-dev/responsive-scripts.js?ver=1.2.0

This specifically:

$('a[href=#scroll-top]').click(function() {

It should be this:

$('a[href="#scroll-top"]').click(function() {

Why this error now? WordPress 4.5 updated jQuery to version 1.12 which is better at detecting errors in code. Previous version ignored it / or guessed at the intent.

Hope that helps! Let me know.

re: I would like to know how i go about disabling the profile page

Navigate to the Connections : Settings admin page and click the Advanced tab. In the Permalink section, disable the Name option.

re: put an add to address book on each

The only way to add that where you show in the screenshot is to manually adding with some PHP code. Is this something you feel comfortable doing?

re: is there any easy way to change the font for connections, looks like connections isn’t using my wordpress template font.

It does inherit the theme font. There are some font size settings and not much else font related precisely to allow it to be inherited from the theme. It could be the way the theme has setup the selectors they are not cascading down to the template. But that is just a guess. I’d have to see the page in question.

Hope that helps!

ps, The screenshot looks like the Default Entry Card template, not cMap.

Ok, it sounds like a database migration issue. The best solution would have been to leave the URLs alone. Connections does not really care about the origin domain, only the relative path to the uploads folder. The URL will auto-adjust to new domains. My guess is because this data is saved in the entry option as a serialized array, that data was corrupted when the URL was changed from the old to the new. This would explain why changing the URL back worked and why you would not see the URL in the CSV export.

For the images for the entries which that did not fix, my guess is the serialized array is still corrupted, even with the change back to the old URL as the data for the image is saved exactly the same. The entry type does not matter. My suggestion is to look at the old db and compare that with the new on the entries which do not have an image and should to see what the difference is. You probably will be able to craft a query to fix the corrupted serialized array and restore those images too.

The only other option would be to reupload them.

Hope that helps. Let me know.

ps. I’ve found the best way to migrate a site is using BackupBuddy or Duplicator. And if moving just the Connections data, to do that manually by copying the connections-images folder to the new site and then exporting the as a SQL file the Connections tables and them importing the Connections tables on the new site. The only real change you would have to do is make sure the table prefixes WordPress uses match after the import.
