Creating Your First Team Member

Follow these steps to add a team member and display them on your site.

Step 1: Add a Team Member

1. Go to Team Members > Add New.
2. Enter the member’s name as the post title.
3. Write their bio in the main content editor.
4. Set a Featured Image — this is the member’s photo displayed in the grid and lightbox.

Step 2: Fill In the Meta Fields

Below the content editor you’ll find three meta boxes:

• Details — Position (e.g., “Marketing Director”), Role (e.g., “Leadership”), and Company.
• Contact Info — Phone number and email address.
• Social Media — Website, Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, and Instagram URLs.

All fields are optional — only fields with content are displayed on the frontend.

Step 3: Assign a Team Group (Optional)

In the Team Groups panel on the right side, assign the member to one or more groups. This lets you filter members by group in the shortcode.

Step 4: Display on a Page

Add the shortcode to any page or post:

[our_team]

This displays all team members using your global default settings. Visit Team Members > Settings to configure those defaults.
