Displaying a List of Staff
To display a list of staff on your website, use the shortcode [staff_list]
in the page content area that you want them to appear.
To limit the Staff displayed to a specific category, use the shortcode [staff_list category='the_slug']
, where the value of category
is the slug of the Category you want displayed. You can locate the slugs by looking at the List of Staff Member Categories.
To show all of your staff members, grouped by category, use the shortcode [staff_list group_by_category='true']
. You can control the order of the categories by using the attributes category_order and category_orderby, but the default is to sort them by their last name, in ascending order.
To paginate your staff list, use the staff_list shortcode with the per_page parameter set. For example: [staff_list per_page='5']
. Pagination links will be automatically added if needed.
Tip: You can also use a plugin such as ‘Category Order and Taxonomy Terms Order’ to order your Staff Categories.
Displaying a Single Staff Member
To display a single Staff Member on your Website, use the shortcode [staff_member id="123"]
, where the value of id is the Staff Member’s internal ID (you can get this shortcode by looking at the Staff Member List or the Edit Staff Member screen, inside WordPress.)
Create your own Templates
Create your own templates for the staff list shortcode, the content of single staff member pages, and the staff search results page
To do so, navigate to the wp-content/plugins/staff-directory-pro/templates/ folder (note: this will vary a bit depending on your installation). In that folder you’ll find a template file for staff-list.php and single-staff-member-content.php, which correspond to the [staff_list] shortcode and the single staff member pages, respectively.
To create a search staff results page, navigate to your theme’s folder copy index.php or search.php to search-staff-members.php, and make a visible change. Confirm that you see the visible change when searching for staff members. If you are, you’ve setup the template right!
PRO: Table and Grid Views
Please Note: Company Directory Pro is required to gain access to advanced features such as the Grid and Table views.
To display a Table of all your Staff Members, use the shortcode [staff_list style='table']
.
To display a Grid of All Staff, use the shortcode [staff_list style='grid']
.
Both of these styles work seamlessly with the new Group By Category feature.
