    I’m thinking of creating a Brand DB list.

    1. Is it possible to do a full table layout? I mean to set up the display information on each column, and every line will have different brands. Also, we should be able to set up the number of fields by page (20, 50, 100, 200)

    3. In these listings is there a possibility to add categories or hashtags for topics related to that brand list? (so people will find product type tag or category according to what they search and not the location)

    4. Is there a possibility to create a space with annual voting for each brand on the DB, for each company? And at the same time have a global cumulative vote (of all the years).

    5. Also another field “where to buy?” .. just inside a list of places to people that need something can buy in that website list (according to country)

    6. Would be interesting if, in some way, we can connect to those brands’ official social networks to check the Number of Fans / Followers by each brand. So we also can rank them.

    Maybe you don’t have these options… so I hope can be developed because will be new ideas ?? Please let me know if you will have these options, PM/Poke me!

    This would have to be custom-developed. There is nothing available in Connections that offers this “off-the-shelf”.

    RE: 3. In these listings is there a possibility to add categories or hashtags for topics related to that brand list?

    Yes, Connections support attaching categories to the directory entries. It is very similar to how you attach categories to WordPress posts.

    RE: Is there a possibility to create a space with annual voting for each brand on the DB, for each company? And at the same time, have a global cumulative vote (of all the years).

    Yes, custom fields can be added to Connections.

    RE: Also another field “where to buy?”.. just inside a list of places to people that need something can buy in that website list

    I am sorry. I am not exactly sure what is being asked. But, it sounds like a custom field might be the answer.

    RE: Would be interesting if, in some way, we can connect to those brands’ official social networks to check the Number of Fans / Followers by each brand. So we also can rank them.

    Are you asking if directory entries can link their social media accounts? If yes, then the answer is yes.

    I hope this answers your questions! Please let me know.

    Hi Steven. Thanks for the feedback!
    I’m searching for a solution to display a dB table list view.

    Can be like this samples:

    Users can vote by Year or if they want to go into details (check the total number of votes for all years inside each profile, read reviews, or find official links for each profile), Add comments, and connect to the Social Media API of each official Page for Facebook, Twitter, VK, Youtube, Instagram, etc… People, so we can see the rank for each person/brand on that listing (and numbers are always updated).
    Would be interesting if we join add/edit/remove all related pages or related groups for each social network (for each person/company) just to add the numbers and have a more realistic number of fans/followers. We can rank the person/brand according to each platform on that list.

    I think you might be looking for something more similar to BuddyPress for WordPress.
