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.

After adding members, you can display them on your site with the list and portrait components.

Example:

tim-member.md

---

aliases:
  - T Member
