Add each person on your team once, with a photo, a role and a short bio. Every Team section on your site shows them, in the order you choose. Who can do this: Contributors, Editors, Admins and Owners can add and change team members. Publishing them needs an Editor, an Admin or an Owner.

Before you start

  • Have a photo of each person ready. A square or portrait headshot works best. You can upload it as you go.
  • To show people on a page, add a Team section too. See Team.

Fill in the basics

  • Title: the person’s name, as visitors see it.
  • Role / title: the line under the name, such as “Owner” or “Lead trainer”.
  • Tagline / fun fact: an optional one-liner. See the table below for where it shows.
  • Bio: an optional short biography. See the table below for where it shows.
  • Featured: mark your key people. A Team section can show only featured people, and the Spotlight (featured large) layout shows them large.
  • Sort order: people are listed lowest number first. Give your founder 0, then 10, 20, 30, so there’s room to add someone in between later.
Which details a Team section shows depends on its Card layout, or on the List (wide rows) section layout:The section’s Show bio and Show tagline / fun fact switches must be on too.

Add a photo

Open the Photos tab.
  • Photo: choose a headshot from your media library, or upload one. Without a photo, the card shows the person’s first initial.
  • Alternate photo (shown on hover): an optional second photo, such as a candid shot. It fades in when a visitor points at the card.
  • Photo URL and Alternate photo URL (hover): use these only if the photo already lives on another website. An uploaded photo always wins, and lets you crop it.
  • Paste the address of the photo itself, not of the page it’s on. It usually ends in “.jpg”, “.png” or “.webp”.
  • To get it, right-click the photo in your browser and choose Copy Image Address (Copy Image Link in some browsers).
  • If you’re not sure, leave these empty and upload the photo instead.

Add contact details and social links

Open the Contact & social tab.
  • Email and Phone: shown only when the Team section’s Show email / phone is on. It’s off by default.
  • Social profiles: add a row per profile. Choose the Platform, then paste the Profile URL.

Save it

To finish later, open More save options (the arrow next to the main button) and choose Save Draft. When it’s ready, choose Publish to show the person on your site. Contributors choose Submit instead, and an Editor publishes it.

Change the order

Open the person in Team Members and change their Sort order. Lowest shows first. The manager’s Order column shows each person’s number, so you can see the whole lineup at a glance. Every layout but one follows this order. In the Spotlight (featured large) layout, Featured people take the large spots above everyone else. Featured spots (top row) sets how many: 1 or 2. Everyone else follows in sort order.

Use a different typeface on one card

The Fonts tab has Typeface for this card. Use it to set one person’s card in another typeface. Leave it empty to follow the section and your site fonts. See Typography. Add a row, and under Apply to choose which text it changes:
  • Headings: the person’s name.
  • Body text: the role, tagline and bio.
  • Everything in this section: the whole card.

Try it with sample team members

Admins and Owners can fill a new site with 10 sample team members, to try out the Team layouts before your real team is in.
1

Open Team Members in the command palette

2

Choose Seed Demo Team Members

You’ll see “Seeded 10 demo team members.”
The samples are published straight away, so any Team section already on a live page shows them to visitors at once. Each sample bio starts with “DEMO TEAM MEMBER:”, and signed-in editors see a “Demo content only” notice above the section. The samples are deleted on their own the moment you publish your first real team member. To remove them sooner, archive them in the manager. See Archive, restore and delete.
Visitors can see the sample people on any live page with a Team section. Their photos and names are placeholders, so add the samples only while no live page shows a Team section, and publish your real team before you add one.

What happens next

A new person appears in every Team section as soon as they’re published. Visitors never see drafts. While you edit a page, you also see draft and unpublished people, so you can check them in place.

Troubleshooting

Check these in order:
  • Is the person published? Drafts show only while you edit.
  • Is Featured members only on in the section? Then only featured people show.
  • Does the section limit how many people show? Raise Maximum members on the section’s Team tab. It starts at 12.
The section decides which details appear. Open the Team section’s editor and turn on Show email / phone, Show bio or Show tagline / fun fact. Some card layouts leave the bio out by design. See Team.
Check that the person has an Alternate photo (shown on hover), and that Swap to the alternate photo on hover is on in the Team section. It’s on by default. Visitors who ask their device for reduced motion always see the main photo.
The samples couldn’t be added. Reload the page and try again. If it keeps happening, contact Fetchski Support.
