Overview
The Simple Staff List plugin allows you to build a staff directory for your website. You get an easy-to-use interface
which allows you to edit the following fields for each staff member: Name, Photo, Position, Email, Phone Number, and Bio.
There’s also a drag-and-drop interface to set the order of your staff members.
You’ll use the [simple-staff-list] shortcode within a page or post to display the full staff listing in the order set
on the “Order” page. You’ll be able to customize the information shown for each staff member on your website by editing a simple template. You can add your own custom CSS to style your staff list as well.

Simple, yet extremely powerful!
by jonnyekholm·6 years ago
Thank you very much for creating this one. I would recommend this plugin to any wordpress developer out there. This plugin has been to great help both for staff and product listings. Categorizing is also very easy. For anyone very new to CSS, I would strongly recommend reading about flexbox before using this plugin.
Great plugin, amazing support.

An easy to use plugin with many features that does what it’s suppose to do very well. I had a couple of questions so I reached out for support and received a detailed response amazingly fast. Brett, is knowledgable, friendly and professional. Thanks!

Great simple plugin – Even better support
by rogeratbing·8 years ago
We work with a local arts council and they needed a WordPress plugin to feature artists, their skills, details about them, their contact info, and some of their work. This plugin did what we needed without all sorts of add-ons that we did not need or want.
Since we’ve been using the plugin, Brett (the developer) has been exceptional in his speedy replies to questions and support needs. The latest update provides a very clean CSV export option that is something we had requested for some time. He delivered and is very much appreciated by our group and the arts council!
Don't use this plugin

This plugin technically works. It is not broken or anything it just won’t do anything you need it to do practically. You can’t sort. There is no page template for the actual staff members. It literally just outputs a list of post titles, nothing else. If you have a large amount of members do not use this plugin as there is no pagination. Its like somebody started making a plugin and just got bored a quarter of the way in to it and just quit.
