    Hello,
    I’ve played with several of the templates today and finally decided I like the look of Tile plus; however it does not display or have image or social media correctly – I’ve looked through many of the forums and short codes and have given up – can you help please?

    Here is the page and the shortcode I used:
    http://feng-shui-institute-of-america.com/practitioner-directory/
    [connections template='tile-plus' show_social_media='true']

    How can I align the cards, show the image of person, show social media and click more for bio?
    How can I make it look like your sample? http://connections-pro.com/add-on/tile-plus/

    @ Connie

    Take a looks at this FAQ. You need to remove the code and pre tags from around the [connections] shortcode. That should take care of the display issues.

    To show a bio when you click thru, presently, you need to use two templates. Here how …

    First, remove template='tile-plus from the shortcode.
    Now, go to the Connections : Templates admin page.
    Under the All template type, activate the Tile Plus template,
    Under both the Individual and Organization template types, active the Bio Entry Card template.
    Lastly, go to the Connections : Settings admin page and enable the Single Entry option under the Display tab.

    That should get you what you’re looking for.

    Hope that helps!

    Thanks – What about the social media icons? Mine are just displaying a checked colored boxes: http://feng-shui-institute-of-america.com/practitioner-directory/name/janet-hall/

    How can I change this to the icons?

    @ Connie

    The icon you are seeing is for the delicious social network. Edit the entry, go to the Social Networks metabox (section) and change the social network types in the drop down accordingly, one for Twitter, the other for Facebook.

    I hope that helps!
