    Hi Steven,

    Long time user but I’m having some difficulty making this work. I’m using DAP (Digital Access Pass) as my membership website. My members login to view their information as well as create and edit their directory listing.

    I’ve disabled the FORM extension because it would never successfully edit the listing. However, the LINK extension will only work with my Admin login but not my Subscriber logins.

    I’ve checked the boxes that give Subscribers the add/edit ability and have added the [connections_edit_link] shortcode to get them to the edit page from a separate MY PROFILE page… however the “Edit My Listing” link never shows up (only with my original Admin login)

    I’ve tried several ways to do this with no success. I’d REALLY like to use LINK and FORM together and I’m almost positive it’s something I’ve missed. Thanks for your patience :-)

    How should I give you access privately?

    I logged in and and the test user was set as admin, so I switched it to be a subscriber. I then added a directory entry for the user on their directory admin profile page. I got there from the add your directory link on the Members page which is added by Link.

    I then visited then the My Profile page and the Edit My Entry link does show, right above the orange button. It also displays on the Members page above the directory where it should.

    So, that seems to function just fine in my testing on your site. To test further I could install User Switching and test actual users, but if it works with the test user, it should work for the others too.

    Now, Form. I activated it and verified its configuration, which seems fine but for some reason WordPress was not loading its script on the page. I made a very slight tweak and now it works fine. I was able to make edits to the test user in the frontend. I left Form activated.

    Hope that helps!

    ps. When WordFence is activated on the site, every page load for when users are logged in or not generates this error message. The site seems to work fine but it should not have this error. I just wanted to bring this to your attention since I noticed it.

    Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token <

    p>Thanks! Works except for one thing:

    <

    p>I have existing users in the directory (their directory was set up first) and their emails match across the board with Connections Pro, Their WP User, and Membership site. However, the “EDIT MY ENTRY” doesn’t show up for them so that they can further edit and renew their directories from year-to-year.

    <

    p>BUT it works and shows up fine if I create a NEW Member and Directory Listing.

    <

    p>I’ll PM you the user/pass for an old existing user that can’t see his “EDIT MY ENTRY” link.

    Ok, I track this down to being a bug in DigitalAccessPass LiveLinks. On line 1776 in the DAP-WP-LiveLinks.php file they call a core WordPress action wp_login but they do not pass the core WP_User object which is expected by plugins which also hook into this core WP action. To work around this, I made a tweak to Link which check to see if the user was passed and if it was not then it loads its own instance before proceeding. This seems to solve the issue.
