    I bought me the template Circle. Here I wanted to change the Label Text and some profile details by adding following to the site:

    [connections enable_search='TRUE' enable_category_select='TRUE' show_category_count='TRUE' excerpt_length=15 show_note='TRUE' str_bio_head="Forschungsschwerpunkte"]

    However nothing changes on the front end.

    I attach some screenshots from the back- and frontend.

    Thanks for your help!

    Kind regards,
    Marion

    Here’s a few suggestions to follow in order…

    1. Please check and ensure the Circle template is installed and activated on the Plugins admin page.
    2. Please check ensure the Circle template has been activated for use on the Connections : Templates admin page.
    3. If you have enabled the Single Entry Template option on the Connections : Settings admin page under the Display tab in the Single Entry section, please disable it.

    I hope this helps, let me know.

    Thanks for getting back to me so fast! The problem was at the Templates admin page.

    I had activated the template under “all” and assumed that it would contain all roles (person, organisation, family etc.) But when I looked again specifically, I realized that I had to activate it individually under “Person”, “Organisation” etc.

    Now everything works :-)

    Good to hear you have resolved it. Just as an fyi, the only reason you had to activate the template under the other template types was because of of #3 in my previous reply. With that option disabled (its default) you only need to activate it under the “All” template type.

    Hope that helps!
