In Ryan’s, using an pretty old version of Connections and Slim Plus this worked. The only solution would to be to delete both the slim-plus.js and slim-plus.min.js files from this folder:
../wp-content/plugins/connections-slim-plus/

But if you do, Slim Plus will not longer be slim, every entry will stay open. That is because the files that were deleted closed them. But the names will now be clickable, allowing you to get to the single entry view.

Yes, you could use the cMap template instead of the Bio Entry Card.

Hope that helps!

Yes, I do believe I understand. You want to limit the depth of the category tree to only the root parents. I think this is possible, I remember coding support for it, but I have not tested it thoroughly and I can not remember exactly what state the feature is in. I think its complete and good to go.

Which template are you using? To make use of the feature, would have to make a simple PHP edit to the template.

The forum thread you linked to would apply in this case.

Looking at the screenshot, the image URL is missing in the srcset. It also unlikely to do anything with the Genesis Framework.

Look in the following folder:
../wp-content/uploads/connections-images/

In that folder there should be a folder for each entry which has an image. Within those folders, there should be images.

Can you check to see if they are there?

Also…

Go to the Connections : Settings admin page and click the Advanced tab. Enable the Debugging option. And then upload an image to an entry. Can you paste the result here?

The sorting issue is likely because that field is a text field, not a numerical field. Numerals sorted as text will not sort the way you expect. Here an example…

if sorting 1–10 as numeric in a numeric field you would get 1–10 in order as you expect. However, since it is a text field you would get:

1
10
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9

Anotehr exmaple:
https://support.office.com/en-au/article/Sort-records-on-numeric-values-stored-in-a-text-field-502a36c4-2b6e-4453-91b6-7e842d234157

So, you’re large numbers are likely in the right spot and not random, given that context.

Probably, depending on what you entered exactly in the zipcode field, you could alter the query Connections makes when ordering by zipcode using this method:
http://sqlserverplanet.com/tsql/how-to-order-numeric-values-in-a-varchar-field

Bets guess without digging deeper, you’d have to add it after this line of code:
https://github.com/Connections-Business-Directory/Connections/blob/develop/includes/class.retrieve.php#L763

Hope that helps!

NOTE: replied via email:

Steve,

Thanks for the update on srcset I see now what it does and why.

You were right about the theme error concerning the footer function
wp_footer(). They have an option to display the footer full width and
the wp_footer() call is in that if statement as well by accident. They
had already done an update fixing that and with it installed
everything now works well.

It is funny how situational these issues can be. If I had done the
upgrade work today instead of last friday then when I updated all the
components of the site including my theme I would have already had the
wp_footer() problem resolved and none of this dialog would have even
taken place.

The system is working much as I had wanted now so I will get on with
deploying link and login.

Great job Steve keep it up.

Matt

Sorry, there is nothing built in to do this and likely something that will not be added, it is too niche of a feature, sorry.

One possibility you can investigate …

You could hook into the cn_address filter. And remove or leave the street address based on the current logged in user’s capabilities.

This is not tested or even working code but will point you in the direction:

add_filter( 'cn_address', 'cn_private_street_address' );

function cn_private_street_address( $address ) {

  if ( ! current_user_can('manage_options') ) {

    unset( $address->line_1 );
    unset( $address->line_2 );
    unset( $address->line_3 );
  }

}

What this should do, is if a user can not manage_options which is a default capability for the Admin role only in WordPress:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities

Basically this should make the address visible to only admins.

The only possible gotcha is that you might lose the street address is a user with a role that is not an admin edits an entry.

Hope that helps!

If you have a moment, I would truly appreciate a review as they really do make a difference. Many thanks in advance!

@ Wolfgang

Sorry … but I do not understand. Could you please give more details?

[Steven Zahm]

@ Wolfgang

re: Is it possible to include connections into the wp search form?
No, Connections does not integrate with the core WordPress search.

re: Is it possible to edit an address in frontend?
Yes, you need the Form extension. If you are asking this question in regards to letting a user edit “their” entry, you’ll also need to the Link extension.

Hope that answers your questions thoroughly!
