    I just added this plugin and tested it out by adding two families/households. I put in this shortcode:
    [church_admin type=address-list member_type_id=1 map=1 photo=1] to my WordPress page, but in the main text area of the website, it turns out blank. All I get is the search bar and the link for the pdf version. When I click on the pdf link, it only gives me the header information but no names/addresses either. Am I missing something? I tried different versions of the shortcode like [church_admin type=address-list], but to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    If you are getting the pdf link then you have used the right short code. It’s most likely that you haven’t set the member type for the households, or a using the wrong member_type_id
    The member_type_id’s in use are shown when you click the shortcodes button top right of the main church admin screen

    Hope that helps

    Hi Andy,
    just installed this plugin and I’m noticing something similar. I’ve set up two users with address and same member level but when I go to the directory page I only see one user. If I selected the PDF download link I can see both users. This is the code I’m using

    [church_admin type=address-list member_type_id=# site_id=0]

    They have both been set as mail list members. I’ve also tried setting the member_type_id to 1 but get the same results. Is there a way I can list the full directory?

    At the top of the main screen is a shortcodes button, if you click it there’ll be a list of all the member_type_id’s you are using.
    Then use
    [church_admin type="address-list" member_type_id=1,2,3]

    Replacing 1,2,3 with your list of ids – the # needs to be replaced by something!
    There are other options on the list too.

    Thanks Andy, I’ve gotten around that now.
    Now what I’m seeing if I use [church_admin_register] on a page to register a new user, it adds it to an existing household instead of creating a new one. So the directory shows 4 different families in the one line. Is there a way to create a new household from the [church_admin_register] page?

    A household is a family unit at the same address.
    Clicking “add person” button in the register shortcode or back end Add household will keep adding people to the same household until you click “Save”, after filling in the address.

    See the tutorials…

    Yep that’s right. So I’ve worked that out. However when I use the registration page, hit save. Reload it and fill it in again it keeps creating in the same family instead of creating a new family. I also noticed if I added some users from the registration page, I couldn’t see them from my directory page I’ve set up. Adding families is fine through word press and showing in the directory. Is that the preferred method?

    Sounds like a bug, will have a look.
    [EDIT] – just tested again and it’s fine for me. Can you email me your db backup so I can see what is happening(top of the Church admin menu page – refresh it then download it)
