[Members List Plugin] Problem with the installation

I would be very much interested on solutions for that too…

Well, I auto-answer to myself, at least for some points. but I have other questions.

– First, for the problem of installation. You need to create a page called members.php. Just make a copy of the default page or the default post in your theme and rename it. They are called “page.php” and “single.php”. Choose one of them.

If your current theme doesn’t include them, don’t panic, an go to the default them to copy one of them.

– Do the change as exaplained in the installation instructions.

– The instructions dont explain how to affect the theme “members.php” to your page : just go in the admin interface, modify your members page, and choose another model/guide on the left. Save, and it ‘s ok.

– There is an error in the installation instructions :

This is false :

URL for members page – This option is necessary for searching and paging through members. This URL should be the link to your members page, i.e. https://youwordpresssite/members

It dosen’t work in the version 2.8

It doesnt work either if you write in the settings : https://youwordpresssite/members.php

You need to write something like : https://youwordpresssite/?page_id=700

Where the and of the URL match the URL of the members page you created in the admin interface. That’s a detail, but you need to think to it.

– My problems :

Now, the plugin works, but

1) If I can make a search on the normal fields (last name, first name, etc), i cannot make a search on the meta fields. The tool of search is on this picture and you have a demo here.

(Here, the URL is written with “members” and it works, but i don’t know why or how)

2) I don’t understand how to create new meta fields with the “configure mark up section” ?

Id like to add meta fields “occupation, specialization, country, insitution”.

And to use them to allow seraches on these meta fields.

3) I’d like to show other fields on the directory screen.

See it, there is the gravatar, the email and site web, but I would rather to show last name, occupation, and country.

Someone know how ot do please ? ??

I have the same problem, I have tried everything and in WP2.8.4 doesnt work

Something that is necessary is this pluging PHP Shortcode, and modify the code to insert in the page to

[php]
	$members = new tern_members;
	$members->members(array('search'=>true,'pagination'=>true,'sort'=>true));
[/php]

It runs ok once until I changed to permarlinks and never again !!!???

I have tried to repeat all process and I cant be able to obtain again the table. I understand nothing….

I have tried with other php plugins and… great it works!!!

You can do it with the plug-in “Register Plus” that can make new fields, and this plug-in recognize it.

With the pluging EXEC-PHP
https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/exec-php/

you only need to paste the code

<?php
     $members = new tern_members;
     $members->members(array('search'=>true,'pagination'=>true,'sort'=>true));
?>

in the page you want the list and in the [Members List Plugin] options the permarlink adress.

Edit members option doesn’t work, if you sign not to see one person, still appears in the list.

mine is working but i didnt create members.php file at all. i just paste the code to the new page.

i sure that’s wrong.

any advices please.
