Your team on your website
Does your website have Team? Then you add the people of your organisation: staff, board members, volunteers or coaches. For each person a photo, job title, email, phone, a short bio and links to social media. You group them (for example Management and Board) and decide the order yourself.
Groups (if you want them)
Groups are optional. With a small team you can skip them; everyone is then in one list.
- Go to Collections and click Team groups (or Groups in the Team list).
- Click Create new, type the name (for example Management) and click Save. With Save and add another you create more straight away.
- Grab a group by the dots and drag it to the right place. The top group appears first on your website. Then click Save order.
Adding a team member
- Go to Collections and click Team.
- Click Add team member.
- Fill in the name, the job title (for example Owner or Treasurer) and choose a group if you like.
- Drag the photo onto the box with the dotted line, or choose it with File manager. A portrait photo with the face in the middle works best. If the head is cut off, choose Crop and click on the face. See also Tips for good photos.
- Under Contact: email address and phone. Only fill in what may appear on the website; leaving it empty is fine.
- Under About: a short bio of up to 600 characters, for example what someone does or why they are part of the team.
- Under Social media: click Add account and paste the link, for example to LinkedIn. The platform is chosen automatically. Instagram, Facebook, X, TikTok, YouTube, Bluesky, Threads, GitHub and a personal website work too. Use the arrows to put them in order.
- Click Save draft and then Publish at the top right.
Your design decides whether and where the bio, the contact details and the social media appear on your website.
The list of team members
- Your team is shown as photo tiles, per group, with the name and job title. Without a photo you see the initials. An orange dot means: not published yet. A star: featured.
- Order: drag someone to another place. Drag them onto another group and they get that group. Then click Save order. With the keyboard: select someone with Tab and move them with Alt + arrow keys.
- On or off: with the switch you take someone off your website, for example during leave. Their details are kept; turn the switch back on and they are on the website again.
- Search works on name, job title or group.
- Click a tile (or the pencil) to change someone. The copy icon makes a copy, handy for someone with the same job title. The trash can puts someone in the trash for 30 days.
A multilingual website
The name stays the same in every language. You translate the job title, the bio and the group names in the other language, just like other texts. See Translating your website.
Linking to someone
In a text or button you can link to one team member: in the link window choose Collection item and then Team. The link goes to that person on the team page of your website. See Creating or changing a link.
Deleting a group
If you delete a group, the team members in that group remain. They then appear in the list under Without group until you drag them to another group.
No Team in your menu?
Team is included in the Compleet plan. With Groei you can add it; with Start it is not available. Your website must also be able to show it. Contact Windkracht if you want to use it.
