All templates are available inside gs-team-members/templates
To override templates, create a folder named gs-team in your current themes folder, and you can override the files from the templates of the plugin.
For example, to overwrite a single template copy gs-team-single-default.php from /gs-team-members/templates/singles/gs-team-single-default.php to /yourtheme/gs-team/singles/gs-team-single.php and make the required changes. You’ll see the changes in the front end.
By doing this, you can customize the plugin’s templates without modifying its core code, preventing the changes from being overwritten during future updates.
The default path for template override is: gs-team
Copy any file from the plugin templates folder to /themes/theme-name/gs-team folder and override them accordingly.
However, if the user wants to set up his folder something like this: themes/theme-name/templates/gs-team
This is also possible, just need to add a filter in this theme to change the default path.
Here’s it:
add_filter( 'gsteam_templates_folder', function() {
return 'templates/gs-team';
});
The partial templates can be found in gs-team-members/templates/partials. You can similarly override these templates by copying them to yourtheme/gs-team/partials.
By referring to the Template Override Documentation, you can easily customize Team Members templates to suit your project’s needs.

By default, the most recently added members will be displayed at the top of the screen in the Team Members section. Members are ordered in descending order, meaning the newest additions are shown first. However, if you prefer to display members in ascending order, you can adjust this setting using the Query Settings feature.

– Go to Query Settings (3rd tab)
– Set Order > ASC (From Dropdown)
– Save the Shortcode.
To display Team Members according to their unique IDs, follow these steps:
When you add a new Team Member and publish it in WordPress, the platform automatically assigns an ID to each member. For example, 1893 represents Hugh Jakman in this instance. Other team members have similar IDs: 1894 (Haley), 1895 (Richard), 1896 (Garza), and 1897 (Solaytic).
To arrange members based on their IDs, follow these steps:
– Set the Query Settings to Order: DESC and Order By: Team ID.
– With this configuration, the last published members will be displayed first, sorted according to their IDs. For instance:
– 1897 (Solaytic)
– 1896 (Garza)
– 1895 (Richard)
– 1894 (Haley)
– 1893 (Hugh Jakman)
To Display Members as per Published Date, follow these steps:
– Go to GS Team
– Team Shortcode
– Crete/Edit Shortcode
– Go to Query Settings (3rd tab)
– Set Order By: Date (From Dropdown)
– Set Order: DESC (From Dropdown). ASC/DESC may be set to your liking.
– Save the Shortcode.
To Display Members randomly, follow these steps:
– Go to GS Team
– Team Shortcode
– Crete/Edit Shortcode
– Go to Query Settings (3rd tab)
– Set Order By: Random (From Dropdown)
– Set Order: DESC (From Dropdown). ASC/DESC may be set to your liking.
– Save the Shortcode.
If you need to rearrange or reorder your groups/categories within the Team Members plugin, the process is straightforward and mirrors the steps for reordering members.
Customizing the order of Groups/Categories involves two primary steps:
– Step 1: Drag & Drop to rearrange Groups
– Step 2: Query Settings for Groups
Please refer to the detailed documentation on Reordering Groups/Categories, which includes screenshots for better understanding.
