You might want to look at either Tile Plus or Gridder.

Now, there way to “force” three columns. The number of columns are directly related to the configured tile or grid image size of those template and the width of the content area that the theme has. Since most themes are responsive nowadays, it will also depend on how wide the screen is of the device being used to view the page and how wide the theme is styled to display on the device being used to view the page.

Hope that answers your question.

Well, i do not specifically not allow allow you to do what you want… it is just the way the data is saved. If the same entry is added more than once as a relation, only the last in the list will be saved.

Making the change so it is saved should actually be fairly simple. You would change this code to be this (I think)

public function setFamilyMembers( $relations ) {

    $family = array();

    if ( ! empty( $relations ) ) {

        $family = $relations;
    }

    $this->options['group']['family'] = $family;
}

The real problem… none of the functions using this function will be expecting the data to be returned as a two dimenaional array. They will be expecting the associative array. So you would have to change every function that using it.

• Three instances starting here.
• Two instances starting here.

Of course making these changes… you’ll be locked into “your” version and not be able to update Connections again without having to do the changes after each update.

Probably not really what you wanted to hear, but I hope it helps.

The issue is you are using the shortcode on the page many times using different options to limit the results. You can do this, but the setup needs to change a little.

If your main directory page, http://njsheep.net/member-directory/, is not being limited by category or other options, then you can use this page for the intructions I am about to give. If you have limited it, then you will need to create a new “Results” page where the only thing on it it the [connections] shortcode. Looking at your pages, I highly recommend the later. When creating the new “Results” page, the name of the page is not important, but should be be relevant, like, maybe “Member”.

After you create the “Results” page and publish it, take note of the page id in the browser address bar. You’ll need it. If you are going to use your existing main directory page, edit that page and get the page id from the browser address bar.

Now, on all your pages where you are using the shortcode, add the home_id shortcode option using the page id for the “Results” page.

That should fix up the issue you are seeing.

Now, just to take time to explain why you were seeing the no results message…

When clicking thru to the profile page, Connections will use the first shortcode on the page, discarding the rest. If the first shortcode is limited by a category, and the name you are clicking on does not exist in that category, you’ll get no results. Hope that makes sense.

Hope that helps, let me know.

ps. I highly suggest using the category shortcode instead. Why? Because if you decide to change the name, then the shortcode will not longer work. The ID is permanent and cannot be editted. The shortcode would only stop working if you deleted the category.

Hmmm… odd. I run Yoast SEO Premium on this site and I do not experience this error. Though, I have not updated to the absolute latest version yet. I have version 2.3.5 installed because of the issues the 3.x updates have had. Which version do you have installed?

@ Dani

Hmmm… very odd, but great to hear it’s working fine now!

Seems the newest Enfold does have a small compatibility issue. I applied a hotfix to your site. It should function correctly now. Apologies for the trouble.

@ Barry

The login only seems to be a regular user account, not an admin. What is the link to the page that has the issue?
