Put all entries on the same page

    Hi,

    I can’t work out how to put all entries with their info on the same page. My page just has a link to their profile – I don’t want single profile pages.

    Also, is there a way to get members to submit (a form) rather than we do them all ourselves?

    Thanks

    Just to confirm, you do have the core Connections plugin stalled and activated, correct?

    I ask because this is an addon for the core plugin and will not do anything on its own.

    RE: I can’t work out how to put all entries with their info on the same page.

    Which template are you using? By default, the included free templates in the core Connections plugin will list all entries on the page. If you are using any of the premium templates that support pagination and have it enabled by default. The pagination can be turned off. I would recommend against this if you have more than 50–100 entries. The reason is the more entries you display, the slower the page load time. This is not a bug or limitation in Connections. The same would result if you were to load many WordPress Posts on the same page.

    RE: My page just has a link to their profile – I don’t want single profile pages.

    Please navigate to the Connections Settings admin page and click the Advanced tab. Scroll to the Permalinks section, disable the Name option, and save the change.

    If your “members” are registered WP Users, you will need the Link addon:

    And optionally, the Form addon:

    I hope I have answered your questions thoroughly!

    Sorry – just realised I posted my question in the wrong place!

    Thank you for all your answers. When I did the directory it just had the name which was a link – I gave up trying to work out how to use it.

    Too complicated.

    Sorry to hear you had difficulty! By default, Connections display all info entered for a directory entry, not just the name. It sounds like there was a settings change or maybe a plugin conflict or something.

    If you decide to come back and give Connections another try in the future, please do not hesitate to open a support topic/ticket. Here to help.

    Have a great day!
