Overview

About this plugin

GS Team Members puts faces to your business. Add each person once with their photo, job title, bio and social links, then show your team anywhere as a grid, circle, horizontal card, list or slider. Pick a design in the shortcode builder, see it in the live preview, and paste one shortcode or block.

A clear “Meet the team” page helps visitors trust the people behind your business, and it is one of the most visited pages on many company sites.

How it works

  • Go to GS Team > Add New Member. Enter the name, bio and job title, set the photo as the featured image, add social links and choose a group.
  • Go to GS Team > Team Shortcode, create a shortcode and pick a design. The live preview updates as you change settings.
  • Copy the shortcode, for example [gsteam id=1], into any page or post, or use the GS Team block or widget in your page builder.

Each shortcode has three tabs:

  • General: design, carousel, columns per device, link type, image size and which details to show.
  • Style: fonts and colors for names, roles, bios and cards, plus carousel arrows and dots.
  • Query: how many members to show, sorting, and which groups to include or exclude.

Under Preferences you can change the profile page slug and layout, rename any front-end text, turn lazy loading off and add custom CSS.
