@ Guy

When upgrading, the upgrade price will be full price minus the price of the license being upgrade. Put another way, yes, the difference. Hope that helps!

re: Is it not possible to limit the number of entries on a page if we use the Default Entry Card template?

Sorry, no, pagination is not supported in this template.

re: If the answer to # 1 is “Yes, it’s not possible,” what templates work OK with ROT13?

ROT13 should work with all templates. I just tested again with Excerpt plus and it works fine. There was an issue with the Gridder template but I think that has been resolved.

Perhaps the Hours extension will meet your needs.

With cMap 5 and newer, yes, this is a change to allow configuration via the Template Customizer. Text color can be changed using it. Go to the Connections : Templates admin page and click the Customize button. The page will reload with a preview on the right and the Customizer on the left. In the upper left hand of the Customizer click the back arrow and then Click the Style panel. There you can change style elements in cMap. After you make your changes, click the SAve and Publish button. The next update to cMap will bring more color styling options, including the link colors.

Hope that answers your questions thoroughly.

re: is it possible that on the listing page to make the image(s) clickable to view in full screen???

Sorry, no, this is because the images as links is reserved for the feature to allow a Link to be assigned to the image and logo.

re: will the fact that they’re ALREADY WP users within the site (due to our use of the WishList Member software) cause any unintended consequences?

Sounds like that should work just fine. They only thing I can think of is that’ll you’ll need to make sure that the role of your WishList members have the either the add/edit or add/edit moderated capbilites on the Connections : Roles admin page.

Thanks for choosing to use Connections again :D

@ Lisa

What you asking sounds a lot like the Wollombi Valley website. If you look under each one of their accommodation types… each is powered by Connections. Same goes for their Wine & Produce and Local Businesses pages which shows all the businesses from the directories. This is done by separating the directory by category by using the category shortcode option. The template, they are using on their site is a custom modded version of the cMap template.

Hope that answers your question, let me know.

re: we want to set up the directory so that people can manage their own listings but I don’t want them to log into the site itself, just the directory page

Sorry, this is not possible. WordPress has a built in proven, reliable and most importantly a secure user authentication system. A logon for just the directory is not a feature I will add to Connections when WordPress has one built in. My suggestion is to allow site login and have those users set as Subscribers. The only additional privilege a logged in Subscriber has is the ability to edit their WP user profile while being authenticated vs. a user which does not have have a login. You can block access to the admin for the logged in Subscriber. There are lots of plugins available to do this. Then you can use Form and link to give the Subscriber permission to edit their directory entry only on the site’s frontend.

Hope that answers your question thoroughly.

re: the contact name and email are showing up in white and I would like to change this to black like the other fonts.

The font color for the links would be inherited from the theme when using the Default template, so the white font must be a setting within the theme. If you can share a link to the page so I can take a look I will be able to provide you with a bit of CSS to force the link color in the template.

re: I have only entered two records for a test right now but it appears that all these records will continue on one long page?

If you are using the Default template, then yes, that would be the case. If you need pagination then you need one of the premium templates.

re: I just found out how to show letter index’s at the top of the contacts but, is there a way to show only the letter you have clicked on by chance?

Sorry, no, there is not.

Hoe that thoroughly answers your questions, let me know.
