A WordPress plugin that adds staff management and custom staff profile pages.
Installation Instructions
- Upload the \’staffer\’ folder to the
/wp-content/plugins/ directory
- Activate the plugin through the \’Plugins\’ menu in WordPress
- Visit the Settings panel to set up Staffer.
How Do I Use Staffer’s Shortcodes?
Follow this format for shortcodes:
[staffer]
The above example would output all of the staff listings in default order.
To fine-tune, you can use parameters:
[staffer number="5" department="slug" layout="grid"]
In the above example, “number” refers to the number of entries to retrieve, and “department” refers to the department name slug. For instance, if you only wanted to show a list of members in department term with the “management” slug, you would pass “management” as a parameter. Layout can be either grid or list.
Other parameters include “order” and “orderby” — and all parameters are optional.
Using the extra parameters, you could reorder the entries using WP_Query’s order and orderby parameters.
For example, if you wanted to display 50 staff members, ordered by name alphabetically, you would do the following:
[staffer number="50" order="ASC" orderby="name"]
How Can I Set the Order of Staff Profiles?
For now, use a custom ordering plugin, such as Post Types Order, available in the WordPress plugin repository. I plan on adding this functionality to Staffer in the future.
What Size Should the Staff Images Be?
When you upload an image, a custom thumbnail for Staffer is automatically generated, so feel free to use any image size for your Staff profiles.
