    @ Bree

    Take a look at the order_by doc page, example 3. Please take note to the notes ;)

    Hope that helps!

    Great to hear that fixed the problem!

    If you have a moment, I would truly appreciate a review as they really do make a difference!

    re: Your code snippet enables loading the SQL with all Connections data via myPHPadmin?
    No, let me try to explain further…

    When an entry is added to Connections with addresses, phone, links, dates and such, that data is save to their respective tables. It is also saved serialized data in the main wp_connections table. This is done to keep db queries to a minimum when view entries. The data in the tables is only used when searching, custom ordering and editing.

    This serialized data seems to be “corrupted” when being exported from the source db. This could be simply do to PHP version differences between the source and destination. I use “corrupted” in quotes because it seems fine and I can unserialize it without errors but on your production site, it gives errors which causes the data not to be displayed.

    The code snippet I added using the Code Snippet plugin basically disables the use of the serialized cache data in the main wp_connections table. It uses the actual data from the other tables instead.

    This will results in more db queries on the directory page but this is the only working solution I can come up with.

    re: If this is the case, I can disable the two plugins you installed?
    No, you will need to continue to use the Code Snippets plugin with that snippet in order for the viewing of the Connections entry data to be complete for the reasons I previously explained.

    You can uninstall the Query Monitor plugin, but if I may, I do suggest leaving it installed, but deactivated. If you run into trouble, activate it as it can be a huge asset in trying to trace issues in WordPress and plugins.

    Is this something I should report to the creators of Duplicator? Or is this something more related to Connections?
    No, I think both plugins are fine … even though I am not quite sure what exactly the error you are receiving in Duplicator is and why.

    I hope the better/more thoroughly explains it!

    One thing to try is simple visit the Settings : Permalinks admin page. Just visiting the page flushes and rebuild the WP permalinks.

    If that doesn’t work, what is the link to the directory page so I can take a look?

    It was the image for Ms. Kwin Ramos. After I resized it to a more web friendly size, the page loads fine.

    Hope that helps!

    The images are saved in the ../wp-content/uploads/connections-images/ folder.

    The issue might be the PHP version difference on your localhost compared to the production server.

    The entry data cache seems to be fine but the unserialize() function on the production server says there’s an error.

    I installed the Code Snippets and Query Monitor plugins.

    I added a new code snippet which disables the use of the cached entry data and everything loads fine.

    If you want to see the error being generated, deactivate the Disable Connections Cache snippet and then visit the Connections : Manage admin page.

    After the Connections admin bar menu item, there is a new menu item added by Query Monitor. When you click this you’ll see PHP Notices. Clicking that you will see all the error when trying to unserialize() the cache data.

    So, I guess just leave the code snippet active…

    Hope that helps!

    Odd, I got that because there is W3TC comment in the the page source…

    Well, when something suddenly stop working that usually means that another plugin was installed or updated that is somehow breaking the query vars that Connections registers with WordPress to make searches and filters work.

    Here’s what to do next:

    This is a temporary and only meant to identify if a there is a potential plugin conflict which is causing Connections not to function as expected.

    1. Temporarily deactivate all other plugins except Connections and any
      of its extensions and templates.
    2. Activate the plugins one at a time and check after each plugin
      activation to see if the issue is occurring.

      • If the issue is occurring, then you’ve identified the plugin causing
        the conflict. Deactivate that plugin and then continue activating the
        remaining plugins one at a time.
      • If the issue is not occurring, continue to activate plugins one at
        time.

    Let me know what you find out.

    @ brad

    This is because Tile Plus actually does not come with map support. I’ve been wanting to add that for awhile now. I try to get to that this week and push out an update.

    Hope that helps!
