    Hi,
    I followed your instructions on the “pre-sale” and purchased cMap.

    When I didn’t have cMap, I could see on one contact all the categories that contact fit in, e.g. on the Petropolis contact it stated it was in the category for Pet Store and Dog Grooming. Now that I have installed cMap I no longer see the categories Petropolis belongs to on their contact card.
    (see http://dogsized.com/directory/ )

    How can I show all the categories associated on one contact?
    Thanks,
    Lynn

    Sorry, but cMap does not show the assigned categories other than what is shown when a category is selected in the drop down as the currently being view category. I hope that makes sense.

    Is there any way to change this?

    If you’re able to edit PHP you could edit the template to include it.

    Open the card.php and card-single.php and place the following code where you want the categories to be displayed. Both files can be found here:
    ../wp-content/plugins/cmap/

    <?php $entry->getCategoryBlock( array( 'separator' => ', ', 'before' => '<span>', 'after' => '</span>' ) ); ?>

    I have 2 Parent Categories; Cities and Specialties. Since the city is already on the card I don’t need it to repeat. Is there any way to do the above but limit it to one Parent Category; Specialties?

    Thanks

    @ Pamela

    Sorry, no, I can not think of a way to accomplish that.

    I’m trying to do what you describe above, but I can’t find the files you mention. I am going to: Plugins> Editor>
    Then in Select Plugin to Edit: Connections CSV
    The options I have for files to edit are
    connections-csv/connections_csv.php
    connections-csv/LICENSE.txt
    connections-csv/css-admin.css
    connections-csv/changelog.txt
    connections-csv/submenu/csv.php
    connections-csv/includes/class.csv.php
    connections-csv/includes/class.options.php
    connections-csv/includes/class.parsecsv.php
    connections-csv/js/ui.js

    What am I doing wrong?

    @ Ruth

    The instructions from above need added to a template; you can’t add it to the CVS Import. Since you’re posting this in the cMap forum I’m going to assume you have that template. If you do, you need to select it in the plugin editor and not the CSV Import.

    Hope that helps!
