Team members
How to add, remove, and edit team members
Add/remove members
To add or remove a team member, create or delete a Markdown file in /_members.
Each file will automatically generate its own page according to its filename. For example, a file with the name tim-member.md will generate a page at /members/tim-member.
Example:
name
Display name of team member.
image
URL to portrait photo of team member.
role
description
Description of team member's role in your organization. Overrides any default text set from of role.
aliases
By default, team member pages have a link at the bottom that goes to the "Research" page and searches for any papers by them. This field is a list of aliases/variations/abbreviations of the team member's name to search for.
links
Social media links for the team member, without any prefixes like @, www., etc.
See /_data/types.yaml for what types of links are built-in or to add your own.
role vs description
You can organize your team members any way you want with List filters and by customizing /_data/types.yaml. However, by default, role is intended to be a high-level type (only a few unique ones in your organization) that you assign an icon and use for coarse list filtering (e.g. "always list PIs first, then postdocs, then undergrads"). description is intended for a more specific description that might be unique to each member.
Customize member page
The skeleton arrangement and style of team member pages are based on the /_layouts/member.html template, which you can freely edit to your liking.
