    Evening, I am trying to make the directory show.I have followed the steps, with the short code etc… but it still does not appear on the page. Inface, once I copy the short code, it seems to block anything else from showing. Please help!

    What is the exact shortcode you are using? Can you share a link to your directory page so I can take a look?

    Thanks for getting back to me. The exact code I was using is [connections]

    Also, I don’t know why but the geocode isn’t working? When I enter the latitude and longitude the box remains blank. any idea why?

    I have managed to get the director appearing in the desired page now. The geocode still doesn’t work however.

    Is it possible to make the ‘entry’ link to another one of my pages? The idea of my site is a review site. The plan is the user locates the company they want to leave the review for from the directory which them leads them onto another page where they can write a review. is this possible?

    Many thanks in advance.

    Make sure you create you Google Maps API keys. Mapping features will now not work without those keys due to a change Google made. Learn more here. Google did make a change. YOu no longer have to choose the API key type. Simple create two keys. One with no restrictions, this will be the Server API key. The second add a referer restriction following the sample in the tutorial. This key will be the browser key.

    You can add links to entries. You could use these to add a link to another page on your site. The alternative would be to create a custom field and template in order to add this feature.

    Hope this helps!
