    Hi there,

    I have purchased the ad on for importing connections. I have to update the list every week and would like to know if ZI need to go in and delete all of the existing connections first (under ‘manage’) or if i can just overwrite the contacts when importing? I have over 2000 so doing the deleting manually is a time consuming task. Thank you

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    HI there thank you – however, we have done custom work for the functionality so that it does not let the search function display all results. I am worried to mess with the code snippets plugin. I now have categories to add (before there was only one but now there are 3) how do I make sure that with the categories the users wont be able to see all info unless they type in their area?

    The instructions I linked to purging the directory is similar to manually deleting all directory entries and then manually deleting all directory categories. It should not affect your custom code.

    When doing any bulk maintenance on your WordPress site, related to Connection or not, it is highly recommended that you do a full site backup so that you can easily restore your site if something goes wrong. Most WordPress web hosts provide such a tool. I recommend reaching out to their support team; I’m sure they will be able to help you use it.

    Regarding your question on your custom code and the category search. This is regarding this support thread, correct?

    If it is, please reopen that support ticket in your account. I’ll be better able to assist you in that support ticket as it will allow me to review what was done so I can provide an accurate answer.

    I hope this helps; please let me know.
