HI Great product. Before I purchase, I have 3 questions:- 1) Does the product sync with MailChimp 2) MailChimp has an API that allows me to sync my MS access database with it (loading new members, member changes, campaign drives, etc) 3) Can the pro template formats be customized https://wordpress.org/plugins/connections-business-directory-login/ @ RockySwartz The answers to 1 & 2 are no. The templates are very customizable. Each template has a lot of shortcode options to allow basic tweaking. In addition to that, there is support for custom CSS file, custom template override file and even custom template files that can be loaded based on condition. Here are the like to the QuickTip pages with more detail. http://connections-pro.com/2014/05/04/quicktip-custom-css/ http://connections-pro.com/2014/05/07/quicktip-custom-css-templates/ http://connections-pro.com/2014/06/04/quicktip-custom-template-override-files/ The templates support this, they do not come with custom files, they’re for you to create. Hope that helps! Thank you for the quick response. A pity that there are no API’s to sync with MailChimp. Fortunately I can sync my Access Database with Mailchimp. I know that in Joomla, MailChimp and Joomla use the same usere files. I will check if this is the case with WP. I am just starting on WP, which is quite different from Joomla.
