@ Nicole

Add the following CSS to the theme’s custom CSS area:

div#cn-metabox-section-organization,
div#cn-metabox-section-department {
  display: none;
}

That’ll do it. Hope this helps!

@ Brian

I’m assuming you’re using one of the premium template from here, yes? If so, you can add enable_pagination='false' to the [connections] shortcode so you will have something like this:
[connections enable_pagination='false]`

That will disable the pagination but I do want to caution you, I do not recommend more than 50 per page because of the negative impact of having a large number shown on one page. Basically for the same reason one should not try to show a very large number of WordPress posts on the same page.

Hope that helps!

@ Meg

So you’re good then?

Sorry, not, it’s not possible at this time. The taxonomy code is being revised so at some point this maybe added as a feature. The new code does already allow for a few different sorting methods. Actually the new category widget in the Widget Pack already uses this new code but I did not opt to include the sorting as as option. This new code will at some point next year be used throughout Connections so something like this will be possible. I’m not using it right now because it is much more db query heavy. This will not matter for the new category widget because it uses fragment caching so the extra db hits only occur once in awhile.

Hope that helps!

@ stefano

It looks like you might be running a caching plugin, please make sure you clear the cache.

Also, can you confirm the images are in this folder:
../wp-content/uploads/connections-images/

There should be a subfolder for each entry and within that subfolder the entry’s images.

If the images are they, like they should be, what are the file names?

@ Stacie

There are detailed import instructions on the plugins import page. They can be seen in the screenshots on the product page. Really, there’s only two or three steps (depending on how you count them).

There is also a video walk thru on the product page, there’s nothing really more to it than what is shown in the video.

Thanks for your interest, I hope that answers your question thoroughly enough.

I added these with only the most basic debugging; ie didn’t fatally crash PHP. Anyway, I think, to fix the issue with checkboxes you’ll name to change the name attribute here. Changing it from name="cn-cat" to name="cn-cat[]" will fix it. That would result in a search where any entries assigned to any of the selected categories to be returned as a result. Changing the name to `name=”cn-cat-in[]” would result with with a search where an entry must be assigned to all the selected categories.

Hope that helps, let me know.

fyi, these functions will likely be going away at some point in favor of ones that use the core WP Walker class. The next update to the Widget Pack uses the replacement for the category list function (just added yesterday).

@ dominic

Sorry, right now the custom fields are not searchable “out of the box”. This is a planned enhancement.

If you need the skills and talents to be searchable you can rename the “notes” field as you suggested or you could add them as categories under a sub category named “Skills” and “Talents”. This would allow the user to filter by either skill or talent use the category drop down on the premium templates.

As far as the having the notes field open by default, sorry no, that can not be done unless you create a custom template file override removing that functionality.

I hope that helps!

@ Peter

What you need to do is create a “Results” page … the page name can be anything you want. The “Results” page should contain only the [connections] shortcode with no options. Then you need to set this new “Results” page as the directory home page. Now on your “Our Team” add the force_home='true' shortcode option to each of the shortcode instances on the page. Now when a link in clicked, it’ll resolve to the new directory home page where the [connections] shortcode exists once so the entry will be only displayed once.

Hope that helps!

**re: Hi Steve,

I am using the Profile template in the content area and the names template in a widget.

I need the vcard to display in the Profile. I added a line of code to profile.php that you sent me, which worked well.

I just updated Connections and lost that vcard, so I thought it was overwritten.

But when I look at profile.php the line of code is there (see your message below). Did I miss a step?**

Did you follow the suggestion to create a custom template from Profile?

If you did, is the custom template override plugin still activated?
