Assuming the template was upgraded from version 2.1 to the recently released version 2.2 … there should be no functionality changes other than the addition of added support for maps. Actually looking thru the code changes for the previous versions further back, I do not see anything at first glance that would change this.

The only thing I can think of is that the link=true shortcode option was removed which enabled this feature. Here’s the link to the doc page which explains how to enable this display mode.

Hope this helps, let me know.

You can setup Connections and it’ll work. Many users use Connections in exactly this way. It is just a little more complex of a setup. Design wise Connections is focused on a single page usage, which is how most use it. So, certain things like the view link on the Manage admin page will only ever resolve to the page set os the directory home page because, like I mentioned, it is not possible for Connections to know which entry belongs to which page when manually separated.

Hope this helps!

Change $sendTo to 'email@client.com'.

That should be all. It should be pointed out, making this edit, the change will be lost anytime the Contact extension is updated.

Hope this helps!

Completely untested but should work…

Every entry which should be reviewed, add the reviewers email address to the entry. Make it the top one and set it as the Preferred email address. To keep it from displaying, you can set it as Unlisted.

Another option would be to edit the Contact plugin, line 417. Change it from the entry email address (which is a variable) and hard code it to your clients email address.

One other possibility is you could hook into the cn_email_to and return your clients email. This has a major downside. It’ll apply to all email sent thru Connections. But, if the only email you are using is from Contact, this would work. Alternatively, you could hook into the cn_email filter and check for the X-CN-Log-Type: cn-contact before changing the email address.

Hope this helps!

RE: i dont know what is going on with the permalink? when i go to CONNECTIONS – MANAGE – VIEW it doesnt show the listing – it shows this URL – I dont think ‘name’ should be in the URL but i dont know where i can fix this?

It appears you split your directory across many pages on your site. The view link will only resolve to the page set as the directory home page. This is set on the Connections : Settings admin page under the General tab.

Since the directory is split like this, the view links in the admin will not function because it is not possible for Connections to know which page that entry actually resides.

Hope this makes sense!

RE; after using the css code, it has moved the image, which is great – however now there is a massive blank area – can the ‘bio’ go in this space, or can the Contact Details go in this space?

Use this CSS instead:

#cn-list #cn-profile .cn-clear {
    clear: none;
}

#cn-list #cn-profile .cn-entry-single .cn-biography {
    clear:left;
    padding-top: 20px;
}

Hope this helps!

RE: can you find what i’ve done wrong with URL’s on this site please? https://scenicrimbride.com.au/community … I set up category pages, inserted [connections category=5] but is that what i was supposed to do?

I’ve looked at the page… not sure what I am supposed to be looking for. Can you please provide more detail on what the issue is?

[Steven Zahm]

I added to the CSS to CSS file for Form and included those changes in the latest update :)

[Steven Zahm]

Great to hear you resolved the issue. I’m pretty certain you can remove the code. Role capabilities are persistent because they are saved in the database.

Question… under the core WP Tools admin menu, do you see an Export page? This is not related to Connections but requires the same permissions.

@ twtts

Ok, I added a couple CSS tweaks which correct this.
