re: How to customize directory layout

Connections and its templates are infinitely customizable… it really depends on how far and what you want to do.

re: how can i remove “Other” above the country/location, but keep the info about the country/location visible?

  1. Go to the Connections : Templates admin page and click the Customize button for the cMap template. The page will reload with a preview on the right and the Customizer on the left.
  2. Click the back arrow in the upper right of the Customizer.
  3. Now click the Advanced panel. When that opens, Add this, %line1% %line2% %line3% %city% %state% %zipcode% %country% to the Address format option.
  4. The results list view and the detail/profile view are configured separately.
  5. To configure the detail/profile view, click the name of the first entry in the preview.
  6. The preview will reload.
  7. Now, change the Address Format option again.
  8. Click the SAve and Publish Button and exit.

re: how can I add a “Specialty:” under the company name? maybe I can add the info to “department” instead of a custom field and write “Specialty:” before each text I put in there?

You have to options. You can use CSS to prefix the department field with the label or edit the templates’ PHP files; card.php and card-single.php to add the label. Those files can be found in this folder:
../wp-content/plugins/connections-cmap/

re: but how to I remove then the title “other” that will appear if I enable the department visibility?

I’m sorry, but I am not sure what you’re asking. could you clarify?
