We use Connections Business Directory to create a password-protected photo directory on our church website. The directory itself is easy to use and has templates that work well for us. I recently encountered a problem when exporting data to create a print directory (which I do with mail merge, as recommended by Connections). Steve provided prompt support through the WordPress forums and, when the problem persisted, provided more direct support as well. Everything is working well now, and I love being able to update my print directory with the push of two buttons!

Mike 8. október, 2019

If you have trouble they will do what is needed to get things running again. The support is very friendly and fast. Couldn't ask for better support!

Thank you

Barry Seward 21. ágúst, 2019

I installed the free plugin and it worked great right out of the box. My directory was functional and looked really good. There was one thing that I wanted to add to my website since my directory is so large and that was pagination so my pages would load quicker. I purchased the cMap template and not only did it provide pagination it also added a map (hence its name), a search feature that searches the directory (super cool) and it came with great support. Pretty good for roughly 20 bucks. It was easy for me to customize the template to fit in with my website but when I ran into an issue regarding changing the font size, Steven, the plugin developer, was able to get me an easy to install code in less than 2 hours that worked perfectly. I am super impressed with the plugin and the support and wholeheartedly recommend that if you need a WordPress directory to choose the Connections Business Directory.
