You’ll need one of the premium templates to enable search. I would suggest the cMap template.

Hope this helps!

This image link is not valid:

https://barreau-montpellier.com/wp-content/avocats/2.jpg

The certificate for https is not valid and will be rejected by WordPress

I suggest try using this instead:

http://barreau-montpellier.com/wp-content/avocats/2.jpg

The images in the /wp-content/uploads/connections-images/ folder are where the image are imported to, the destination. When importing the CSV file multiple times, you should remove the URL/link for entries which already have a good photo. Otherwise you will end up with duplicates images in the destination folder. When importing the file only include the image URL if you are adding an image or changing the image for the entry.

The back links are working correctly. They will resolve back to the page the directory was embedded on. In this case you have created multiple directories by putting them on different pages differentiated by category (or perhaps by entry ID).

For this type of setup to function you need to create a “common” page for all these instances to link to.

Create a new page, the name is not important but should be relevant. The page content should contain only the [connections] shortcode with no options set so all entries can be displayed. Take note of the page ID that WordPress has assigned the page. It can be found in the browser’s address bar.

Set this new page as the directory home page.

Edit each instance of the [connections] shortcode on the other pages and add the home_id shortcode option to each. Set the value to the new page ID.

Now, all profile links to each instance of Connections will resolve to the new page. when the back link is clicked it will take you back to the new page, not the page the user came from.

If you want the link to resolve to specific directory/page from which the user came from then the setup becomes a little more complex. After performing the above steps you would need to install this free addon for Connections. Click the green button to download and then install it like any other plugin. After it is installed and activated, edit each entry and select the page that the entry should link to.

Hope this helps!

Ok, I do not believe I’ve ever had that request before :) This is possible but it will require a bit of code.

First, install the Code Snippets plugin.

Add a new snippet with this code:

add_action( ‘admin_init’, ‘cn_remove_bio_metabox’ );

function cn_remove_bio_metabox() {

    cnMetaboxAPI::remove( 'metabox-bio' );
}

Save and activate the snippet.

Hope this helps!

RE: when I import my file (1200 entry) the photos do not appear all

For photos to be imported the URL (link) to each photo must me fully qualified valid links. If they are not WordPress will not be able to fetch them so them can be imported.

This is an example of a fully qualified URL:

https://connections-pro.com/wp-content/themes/striking_r/images/social/komodomedia_32/googleplus_32.png

These links also need to be accessible to WordPress, if they are not, they can not be fetched and will not be attached to the entry.

RE: How to reimport the file to crush the entries and not duplicate them

I am sorry, I am not sure what you mean by “crush” them… but to import again, first export directory entries by using the Export All tool found on the Connections : Tools admin page under the Export tab.

Edit the file to include your photo images and then import the file. Importing the exported CSV file will not make duplicate entries.

Hope this helps!

RE: Why a different situation directories?

The way WP loads translations for plugins require them to be in their own folder. Each addon for Connections a plugin, so, each will have it own translation file.

When using Logo Translate to translate you have more options which is why some are in the loco folder. You chose this folder when creating the translation.

Let me know when you are finished and which folders they are in and I will copy them from FTP.

@ Israeli

Thanks for your purchase of the gridder template! Here is the link to instructions for installing a template. After you install the Gridder template you might wish to give the Gridder instructions a look.

Hope this helps!, Let me know.

@ Jason

Sorry, but I am not sure what you mean by description. Are you asking about the bio, notes or excerpt fields?

[Steven Zahm]

As long as you make sure there is no duplicates, changing the slug directly in the db should be fine.

[Steven Zahm]

RE: Is there a way to fix this or do I need to create new profiles for the individuals?

Presently the only easy option is to create a new entry with the correct name and then delete the original. Alternatively, if you are familiar with editing the database directly, you could change the slug in the database.
