    I have purchased Connections Slim Plus. I need to directories on a website I am building. The directories need to be located on two different pages. One directory will list affiliate members. The other needs to list Real estate members. Am I able to use Slim Plus on two different pages and have the plugin search for affiliates on the affiliate page and real estate members on the other? If so, please let me know how to do this.

    Yes, this is possible with Slim Plus. See this FAQ. The FAQ is for cMap, but it works just the same with Slim Plus.

    Hope that helps!

    Thank you, Steven. This works great.

    [connections category='19,20,21' enable_category_by_root_parent=true]

    I do have a couple of additional questions. How do I modify my shortcode to include the following:

    First, can I change the search field that says “Search Category” to something else? For example, I would like to have it say Search Affiliates.

    Also, how do I remove the image placeholder that says “No Image Available”…

    Last, I would like for the search results to show all of the results, rather than the 20 or so that are showing up.

    Thanks again. Love your plugins!

    Sure, just about all this is easily doable with adding a few more shortcode options that are enabled by Slim Plus. Here’s the shortcode:

    [connections category="19,20,21" enable_category_by_root_parent='TRUE' image_fallback='FALSE' str_select="Search Affiliates" str_select_all="Show All Affiliates"]

    The one items that is not possible is disabling the pagination on the just the search results. You can adjust the overall pagination number though with another shortcode option. Here the shortcode you would use to increase the pagination to 25:

    [connections category="19,20,21" enable_category_by_root_parent='TRUE' image_fallback='FALSE' str_select="Search Affiliates" str_select_all="Show All Affiliates" page_limit=25]

    I do not recommend setting the page_limit too high as that will negatively affect page load times of the directory.

    Here’s the page that lists all the shortcode options available to the Slim Plus template.

    Hope that helps!

    If you have a moment, I would truly appreciate a review as they really do make a difference. Many thanks in advance!

    Thanks, Steven. For some reason, my CSV uploads are not working. Attached is the CSV file, and following is the code:

    [connections category='10,49,7,4,6,15,56,2,48,53,57,11,12,9,14,16,51,50,55,3,54,8,52,17' enable_category_by_root_parent=true image_fallback='false' str_select='Search Affiliates' str_select_all='Show All Affiliates']

    The likely issue is with the CSV file. It seems to be missing the column header for Work Address | Line Two. I’m guessing about the field header you went to map to. It is the column with the PO box and suite info. If you add the field header, it should import fine.

    Hope that helps!
