Tab Displaying specific connection types only

I'm really glad I bought your guys stuff. And thanks for the quick reply on my last question. But I do have another question. :)

How do I have a tab show specific lists of connections based on type.

For example, there is the connection type called Family, and I have a Tab called Family, and I want that tab to show a list of current connections that are of the "Family" type only, excluding all other types of connections.

(I'm actually wanting this for the "Honored" type I created, but I figured this example would be a little easier to understand.)

Help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately you'd need to develop a new plugin to do this. The only tab provided for Connections is the Connections tab and it has no such filtering. Good news is it'd be a very basic tab that handles display only as the Connections aspect of CB would handle the rest. Would be a database query then displaying of that query data. API documentation can be found in the free downloads section to help in creating such a plugin. Additionally reviewing the connections plugin would help in constructing the display aspect of the new tab.
