Team List is a plugin that helps you to create a simple team site using your WordPress users with various display options. Either use a block, a shortcode, a template tag or the built-in widget to display blog authors.
After creating similar functionality for a couple of clients, we decided to roll our knowledge into this simple plugin. It’s really straightforward to use:
First of all, the plugin adds a small checkbox to the user profile in WordPress to toggle its visibility in the team list. This means you can decide for every user whether he should show up in the team list or not.
You can then use one of these ways to display the list anywhere on your site.
Action
Use the <code>wp_team_list</code> hook to directly display the users in your theme or plugin.
For example, you can show users of any role ordered by their name:
<pre><code><?php
echo do_action( 'wp_team_list', array( 'role' => 'all', 'orderby' => 'name' ) );
?>
</code></pre>
Note: Team List supports many of the arguments <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_User_Query" title="WordPress Codex Codex WP_User_Query" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>WP_User_Query</code></a> supports.
Block
Use the “Team List” block in the block-based editor to display one or more team lists in any post types. You can select one or more roles and change the order. If you want you can also provide a link to a full team page.
Shortcode
Use the <code>[wp_team_list]</code> shortcode to display a team list in your posts. Supported arguments:
<ul>
<li><code>role</code> – Filter users by roles (comma-separated). 
Use <code>all</code> to show users with any role. 
Default: <code>administrator</code></li>
<li><code>orderby</code> 
Default: <code>post_count</code></li>
<li><code>order</code> – Either <code>asc</code> or <code>desc</code>. 
Default: <code>desc</code>.</li>
<li><code>include</code> – Filter users with specific IDs (comma-separated).</li>
<li><code>has_published_posts</code> – Filter users with published posts. 
Either a comma-separated list of post types or <code>true</code> to filter by all post types.</li>
</ul>
Example:
<pre><code>[wp_team_list role="author" orderby="last_name" order="desc"]
</code></pre>
Pro tip: If you use the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/shortcode-ui/" rel="ugc">Shortcake WordPress plugin</a>, you’ll get an inline preview of the shortcode right in the visual editor. You can also add the shortcode with the click of a button.
Widget
Want do display the team members in your sidebar? Use the built-in WordPress widget. You can set the role you want, the number of users to show and even link to a separate team page.

<h3>Retired Plugin</h3>
Development, maintenance and support of this plugin has been retired in october 2023. You can use this plugin as long as is works for you.
There will be no more updates and I won’t answer any support questions. Thanks for your understanding.
Feel free to fork this plugin.
<h3>Usage</h3>
The plugin automatically replaces user names with 16 digits coded strings. There are no settings. Just install and forget. Deactivating the Plugin restores the default WordPress behavior.
<h3>Why use this plugin?</h3>
WordPress uses the pattern <code>example.com/author/name</code> for author page URLs where <code>name</code> represents the users login name.
This means that the login names from all your users are publicly visible which is a serious security flaw.
The Smart User Slug Hider Plugin changes all author page URLs from e.g. <code>example.com/author/john</code> to something like <code>example.com/author/e9e716def73f76ac</code>.
The codes are generated automatically and its impossible to make conclusions about the user names. The WordPress default URLs will cause a 404 (not found) error.
<h3>Shortcodes</h3>
The plugin adds three shortcodes you can use in your posts:
<ul>
<li><code>[smart_user_slug]</code> – the user slug of the post author – e.g. e9e716def73f76ac</li>
<li><code>[smart_user_url]</code> – the url of the post author’s profile page – e.g. example.com/author/e9e716def73f76ac</li>
<li><code>[smart_user_link]</code> – adds a link to the post author’s profile page</li>
</ul>
<h3>Theme Functions</h3>
The plugin adds two functions that can be used in theme files:
<ul>
<li><code>get_smart_user_slug( $author_id )</code> to get the user slug for the author – the parameter $author_id is optional, if omitted the author`s ID of the current post is used</li>
<li><code>the_smart_user_slug( $author_id )</code> to display the user slug for the author – the parameter $author_id is optional, if omitted the author`s ID of the current post is used</li>
</ul>
<h3>Plugin Privacy Information</h3>
<ul>
<li>This plugin does not set cookies</li>
<li>This plugin does not collect or store any data</li>
<li>This plugin does not send any data to external servers</li>
</ul>
