Metaphor Members Plugin

Creates a custom post type to display info about members of your group or organization.

This is not a membership plugin.

Create individual posts to display information about the members or your organization. Includes a shortcode to generate a grid based archive of your members.

The Member post type includes the following fields:

  • Basic content editor
  • Featured image
  • Member title
  • *Contact info – Unlimited title/desciption fields
  • *Social links – Unlimited list of social site icons/links
  • *Social links target
  • *Twitter handle – Add the member’s Twitter handle

*Use these fields in conjuction with Metaphor Widgets to display this info on each single Member post sidebar.

Member Archive Shortcode

* posts_per_age – Set the number of members to display per page. Default: 9.
* columns – Set the number of columns in the grid. Default: 3.
* excerpt_length – The length of the post excerpt. This will max out at the set excerpt length of your theme. Default: 80.
* excerpt_more – The display of the ‘more’ link of the excerpt. Wrap text in curly brackets to create a permalink to the post. Default: &hellip.
