In case there was a conflict with use of “members”, I changed the Locations of all 118 members and the page Location, but that didn’t help.
Eventually, I found that the list works fine with any number of members up to 91. With more than 91 members, it refuses to show. And it makes no difference which 91 members.

If I have the page Location reset back to “Members” and I change the Location of any members to exclude “Members”, it is fine as long as not more than 91 members have the Location “Members”.

I have temporarily enabled public viewing at https://kmsail.com/officers/ — works fine with shortcode: [pta_member_directory Location=”Officers”]
But https://kmsail.com/Members/ does NOT work with shortcode: [pta_member_directory Location=”Members”]

There are actually three possible counts:
1. The number of unique individual voters
2. The number of times a particular question has been answered (some voters may not answer all questions, so this may vary from question to question)
3. The total number of votes cast for a particular question, including multiples where a question allows it.

#3 is the count that is displayed by the plugin and, in my opinion, this is the LEAST useful of the three counts.

However, I don’t intend to criticize the plugin, which works extremely well. I only offer the above as a suggestion for improvement.

Where the visitor is allowed to select more than one of the answers, the plugin should record it as one vote/one visitor. It should be easy enough to set a flag so that only the first selection in a multiple choice counts as +1 vote. If the visitor then selects another answer to the same question, the flag will already be set, so the second and subsequent answers will not be counted — as it is still the same visitor.

Actually, I have realized that the problem is not knowing the exact names of the fields in the member custom post type. By trial and error, I have identified two as “_pta_member_directory_phone” and “_pta_member_directory_email”, but can’t figure out the names for Location and Position!

Let me start with an apology! You are absolutely right and I was absolutely wrong, albeit a little frustrated.
You are right to point out that the beauty of Open Source is that you can add as much or as little as you are able or willing to do. It is up to others to take that any steps further.
I see the absence of a good Member Directory, perhaps based on Users (on which “Import From CSV” does a good job), as something that is much in need.
But, as you say, if it isn’t there, don’t blame others — do something about it! Perhaps I will try.
In any case, THANK YOU for providing an excellent plugin and, again, I apologize for expressing my frustrations in an inappropriate way.

“got busy with some real work”? Good way to kill any interest in this plugin!
Who is going to spend hours typing in a member list?

(See prior posting on “Spoilers Not Expanding” — probably better to add to that posting and close this one)

I just posted a report on this issue as a separate thread before I saw this.
I found that just adding a reference to jquery.tools.min.js (https://cdn.jquerytools.org/1.2.6/full/jquery.tools.min.js) is enough to stop the spoilers expanding.

Thx, but that isn’t practical for a large table with so many tags. I have to paste into an HTML editor, then copy the HTML and paste that into WordPress in text mode, as you suggest.
Of course, WordPress doesn’t recognize all the HTML tags, so that still isn’t a great solution.
Why, why, why did they remove the option to “Paste From WORD”??

I am so frustrated too. Just pasting DOESN’T work — all table formatting is lost. Why doesn’t the message that says “try turning this option off” tell you how to turn it off??
I am going to try to revert to an older version of WordPress.

That’s true, but it shouldn’t take any CSS tricks to get the columns right, even on IE8.
The stats actually show that IE8 is actually the most commonly used version of IE. Perhaps that is in part a reflection of the audience for the site.

The break appears to come immediately after the </form> and before
<div class=”dc-corner”><span></span></div>
