Maya Team Directory

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.

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 <div class="maya-settings-section"> 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.
