About A Staff List Plugin
From the official readme · v1.1.2Description
The plugin creates a Widget Area named Staff Lists and a Staff List widget. There are a few ways that you can use the plugin in your theme,
you can place the Staff List widget in your existing Sidebar, or you can use the widget area provided and place it into your theme using the [stafflist] shortcode.
The shortcode will also allow you to display the Staff List widget area in a post or page if you don’t want to edit your template files. Options for the short code are class and title. Defaults are class=”ag_staff” and title=””.
Example:
[stafflist class=”yourclass” title=”The Title”]
Note:
This plugin comes with some very basic css so you may need to edit to suit your site needs.
