Title: Maya Team Directory Author: ayalip Published: May 15, 2026 Last modified: May 15, 2026 --- Search plugins ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/maya-team-directory.svg) # Maya Team Directory By [ayalip](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ayalip/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/maya-team-directory.1.0.2.zip) * [Details](https://test.wordpress.org/plugins/maya-team-directory/#description) * [Reviews](https://test.wordpress.org/plugins/maya-team-directory/#reviews) * [Installation](https://test.wordpress.org/plugins/maya-team-directory/#installation) * [Development](https://test.wordpress.org/plugins/maya-team-directory/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/maya-team-directory/) ## Description Maya Team Directory lets you create and display a clean, fast team directory on your WordPress site. Add team members with profile photos, positions, departments, contact details, and bios, then display them with a simple `[maya_team]` shortcode. The free plugin is intentionally lean and focused. It ships with everything you need to publish a working team page: the custom post type, group taxonomy, a responsive grid layout, search, group filtering, pagination, and a single-member template. This plugin makes no remote calls, has no license key, no in-plugin upsell prompts, and never asks for your credit card to unlock built-in features. Optional companion add-ons (CSV import/export, REST API endpoints, extra layouts, sidebar widget, custom CSS, accent color picker, social-network fields and icons— LinkedIn, X, Facebook, Instagram, GitHub, YouTube — featured-member highlighting, per-group layout overrides, and more) are available separately at https://mayanaikotech. com/maya-team-directory/. They install as their own plugin and are 100% optional— this plugin works fully without them. #### What’s Included (Free) * Custom post type for team members * Group taxonomy for organizing members * Custom fields: Position, Department, Email, Phone, Website * Responsive grid layout * Search bar and group filter * Pagination * Single-member profile template * Mobile responsive * Admin photo thumbnails and sortable columns * Translation-ready (.pot file included) * A documented hook & filter API for add-ons (see below) #### Shortcode Usage Display all team members: [maya_team] Filter by group: [maya_team group=”management”] Show multiple groups: [maya_team groups=”management,board”] Hide members in a specific group: [maya_team exclude_groups=”alumni”] Custom pagination and ordering: [maya_team per_page=”8″ orderby=”title” order=” ASC”] Hide controls: [maya_team search=”false” filter=”false”] Force grid column count (1–6): [maya_team columns=”4″] #### Template Overrides Copy templates from `maya-team-directory/templates/` to your theme: * `your-theme/maya-team-directory/single-maya_member.php` * `your-theme/maya-team-directory/archive-maya_member.php` * `your-theme/maya-team-directory/taxonomy-maya_group.php` #### Hooks & Filters These hooks form the public API that companion add-ons (and any third-party plugin) can use to extend the free plugin without modifying its files. Filters: * `maya_td_query_args` — Modify the main member query (receives `$query_args`, ` $atts`). * `maya_td_card_data` — Modify card template data before rendering (receives `$ data`, `$post_id`). * `maya_td_card_renderer` — Return a callable to take over rendering for a non- grid layout (receives `null`, `$layout`, `$data`, `$post_id`). * `maya_td_card_social_keys` — Add extra social networks to read for each card ( receives `network-slug => meta-key` map). * `maya_td_meta_fields` — Add extra fields to the Member Details meta box. * `maya_td_social_fields` — Add extra fields to the Social Links meta box. * `maya_td_social_icons` — Provide SVG icon markup for additional social networks. * `maya_td_member_meta_keys` — Extend the list of meta keys cleaned up on uninstall. * `maya_td_available_layouts` — Register additional layouts (list, compact, masonry, etc.) so they appear in the layout toggle and validate as shortcode `layout=""` values. * `maya_td_layout_icon` — Provide the SVG icon for a registered layout’s toggle button. * `maya_td_single_member_template` — Override the path of the single-member template file. * `maya_td_sanitize_settings` — Sanitize and persist add-on-registered settings fields. * `maya_td_resource_links` — Add, remove, or reorder links in the Settings page Resources sidebar. Actions: * `maya_td_init` — Fires after the free plugin’s core classes are instantiated. Add-ons should bootstrap from here. * `maya_td_register_admin_menu` — Fires after the Settings submenu is registered, so add-ons can add their own submenus under the Maya Team Directory menu. * `maya_td_settings_sections` — Render extra `
` blocks inside the settings form. * `maya_td_settings_sidebar` — Render extra panels in the settings sidebar. * `maya_td_before_directory` — Fires before the directory wrapper opens (receives` $atts`, `$members` WP_Query). * `maya_td_after_directory` — Fires after the directory wrapper closes (receives` $atts`, `$members` WP_Query). * `maya_td_after_card_content` — Add content inside each card, after the bio (receives` $data`, `$post_id`). * `maya_td_after_member_details_fields` — Add inputs inside the Member Details meta box. * `maya_td_after_social_fields` — Add inputs inside the Social Links meta box. * `maya_td_display_options_fields` — Add inputs inside the Display Options side meta box. * `maya_td_save_member_meta` — Persist add-on-owned member meta keys when a member post is saved. #### External Services This plugin does not connect to any external services. All processing happens locally on your WordPress site. No data is sent to any third-party server. ### Support For support, please email ayalip@mayanaikotech.com or visit https://mayanaikotech. com/maya-team-directory. ## Installation 1. Upload the `maya-team-directory` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/` 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress 3. Go to Team Members > Add New to create team members 4. Use the `[maya_team]` shortcode on any page or post 5. Configure settings at Team Members > Settings ## FAQ ### How do I display team members? Use the shortcode `[maya_team]` on any page or post. You can filter by group with`[ maya_team group="your-group-slug"]`. ### Does it work with page builders? Yes. The shortcode works with Elementor, Beaver Builder, Divi, and any builder that supports WordPress shortcodes. ### Can I customize the design? Override any template by copying it from the plugin’s `templates/` folder into your theme under `your-theme/maya-team-directory/`. You can also style the front-end output from your theme’s stylesheet — every element has a stable `.maya-*` class. ### Does the plugin call any external services? No. The plugin operates entirely on your own WordPress install. Nothing is sent to any third-party server. ### Where did Import/Export, the REST API, the sidebar widget, list/compact layouts, custom CSS, accent color, and the social-network fields go? They were moved to a separately-distributed companion add-on so the free plugin can stay small and focused. The hooks and filters required to add them back are documented above. The add-on is available at https://mayanaikotech.com/maya-team- directory/ and is entirely optional. ### Why are there no LinkedIn / X / Facebook fields in the member editor? Social-network fields and their icons (LinkedIn, X, Facebook, Instagram, GitHub, YouTube, etc.) are entirely owned by the optional companion add-on. The free plugin exposes the `maya_td_social_fields`, `maya_td_social_icons`, and `maya_td_card_social_keys` filters so any plugin can register networks and have them appear in the Social Links meta box and on member cards. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Maya Team Directory” is open source software.
