Sheldon HildebrandOK, thanks for your patience in letting me work through this. I’m slowly getting it to where it is functional. What I’ve done (for anyone else considering using it for church directory) is used a tab plugin (tabby) to create 4 tabs labelled ‘families’ (default entry card),’individuals’ (gridder),’volunteers’,’staff’, then set up [connections] to display appropriate information for each tab.
I deleted any ‘families’ which consisted of only one individual, so ‘family’ tab displays true families, ‘individual’ tab shows all individuals, ‘volunteers’ shows members of the individual volunteer groups (categories), and ‘staff’ …. etc.
Disadvantage of using tabs is that regardless of what tab you are in, category search or alpha index filter resets the page back to the first tab, and filter applies to ALL tabs.
Probably need to change tabs to separate pages, too bad, tabs is definitely cleaner look.
Anyways, loving the plugin, thanks for great work!
Current wishlist – using the default entry card for families, would be nice to inactivate the link for the name of the family, forcing people to click on individual members for more details. would eliminate an unnecessary step as all family information is already present.
