## Description

**Team Members & Staff Profiles — Our Team** lets agencies, law firms, clinics, 
and corporate sites showcase their team professionally — without writing a single
line of code.

Whether you need a simple staff directory or a fully branded team page with department
filters, profile modals, and Schema.org Person markup, this plugin handles it out
of the box.

#### Key Features

 * Custom Post Type for Team Members with photo, job title, bio, email, phone
 * Department and Job Role taxonomies with custom icons and colours
 * Multiple display layouts: Grid, List, Carousel, Masonry
 * Gutenberg blocks: Team Grid and Single Team Member
 * Native Elementor widgets with full style controls
 * Schema.org Person/Employee JSON-LD markup for SEO
 * vCard (.vcf) download — visitors save a contact card in one click
 * AJAX-powered department/role filtering with no page reload
 * REST API (webtend-tm/v1) for headless and custom integrations
 * WooCommerce “Handled By” product tab — link a product to its account manager
 * Import/Export settings, one-click reset
 * Translation-ready (POT file included), RTL support
 * HPOS-compatible, multisite-compatible
 * Built with PSR-4 OOP architecture, fully namespaced, PHPCS-compliant

#### Four Card Style Presets

Choose from **Classic Card**, **Overlay** (hover reveal), **Horizontal**, and **
Minimal** — all configurable from Settings  Display without touching any code.

#### Accessible Profile Modal

Enable a full-profile lightbox popup on card click. The modal is fully accessible—
focus trap, ESC to close, ARIA roles, keyboard navigation, and in-memory caching
for instant second opens.

#### Privacy & Public Data

Email and phone fields are **hidden from public display and the REST API by default**.
They are only exposed publicly when the site administrator explicitly enables them
in **Settings  Display**. The vCard download endpoint honours the same setting.

#### Compatibility

Tested alongside Astra, Kadence, GeneratePress, OceanWP, Blocksy, Hello Elementor,
Storefront, and Flatsome themes; Elementor, Elementor Pro, Gutenberg, Spectra, Kadence
Blocks, and GenerateBlocks; WooCommerce (including HPOS); Rank Math, Yoast SEO, 
and AIOSEO; WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, and Perfmatters; WPML, Polylang, and TranslatePress;
Wordfence.

### External services

This plugin does not connect to, send data to, or receive data from any external
service.

All functionality — including team listings, Schema.org markup, the REST API, and
vCard generation — runs entirely on the user’s own installation. No analytics, telemetry,
license checks, update pings, or remote API calls are made by this build.

## Blocks

This plugin provides 2 blocks.

 *   Single Team Member Embed a single team member card anywhere — great for author
   bios or 'meet your consultant' sections.
 *   Team Grid Display a filterable grid of your team members with photos, job titles,
   and social links.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `webtend-team-staff-manager` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install
    via Plugins  Add New  Upload Plugin.
 2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu.
 3. You will be redirected to the Getting Started page — follow the 4 steps to add 
    your first team member.
 4. Use the `[webtend_team]` shortcode, the “Team Grid” Gutenberg block, or the Elementor
    widget to display your team anywhere.

## FAQ

### Does this work with my theme?

Yes. The plugin ships with its own lightweight, theme-agnostic templates and CSS
that adapt to any standards-compliant theme, including all major business themes(
Astra, Kadence, GeneratePress, OceanWP, Blocksy).

### Can I override the templates?

Yes. Copy any file from `/templates/` into `your-theme/webtend-team-staff-manager/`
keeping the same relative path, and the plugin will use your version automatically.

### Does it slow down my site?

No. All CSS/JS is loaded conditionally — only on pages that actually display team
members. No assets are loaded site-wide.

### Is it GDPR compliant?

Yes. Email and phone number are hidden from public display and the public REST API
by default. The site administrator explicitly opts in to publishing them via Settings
Display.

### Does the plugin call any external services?

No. All functionality runs entirely on your own installation. No analytics, telemetry,
license checks, or remote API calls are made.

## Changelog

#### 1.1.2

 * New: Location field — add an office, city, or region to each team member. Displayed
   as a pin-icon badge on every card style.
 * New: Featured Member toggle — mark individual members as “featured” via a checkbox
   in the Display Options meta box. Featured members show a gold star badge on their
   card.
 * New: Shortcode `featured` attribute — `[webtend_team featured="1"]` displays 
   only featured members. Works with all other shortcode attributes.
 * New: Shortcode `location` attribute — `[webtend_team location="New York"]` filters
   members by location (LIKE match, case-insensitive).
 * New: “Show location” toggle in Settings  Display — globally enable or disable
   the location badge on cards.
 * New: “Location” and “Featured” columns added to the Team Members admin list table.
 * New: `location` and `is_featured` fields exposed in the REST API (`/wp-json/webtend-
   tm/v1/team-members`).
 * Improvement: `build_query_args()` now handles `wttm_featured` and `wttm_location`
   meta_query injection cleanly without polluting WP_Query with unknown args.

#### 1.1.1

 * Fix: Corrected inconsistent method indentation in Admin class register() and 
   handle_rewrite_flush() methods (WPCS compliance).
 * Fix: Corrected extra indentation on activate_single() method in Activator class.
 * Fix: Plugin name string in requirements-check admin notices now matches actual
   plugin header name.
 * Improvement: Activator::seed_default_options() now includes card_style, enable_modal,
   enable_search, search_placeholder, and pagination_type defaults so fresh installs
   never rely on fallback coercion.
 * Improvement: handle_rewrite_flush() settings_version calculation reformatted 
   for readability; no logic change.
 * Improvement: Main plugin file doc-block comments improved for clarity on webtend_tm()
   and webtend_tm_requirements_met().
 * Optimization: Removed redundant double-tab indentation across several class methods
   that caused PHPCS warnings.

#### 1.1.0

 * Fix: Modal social icons now render as proper SVGs instead of plain text network
   names.
 * Fix: aria-busy=”true” set on modal dialog while REST API data is loading; removed
   when content is ready.
 * New: In-memory member data cache — opening the same profile modal a second time
   is instant with no repeat API call.
 * New: Copy email to clipboard button inside the profile modal — one-click copy
   with a checkmark confirmation.
 * New: Skeleton shimmer loading animation on the team grid during filter/pagination
   fetch.
 * New: aria-live=”polite” region announces member count to screen readers after
   each filter change.
 * Fix: Removed inline style attribute from admin settings page live preview panel.
 * Improvement: Modal loader div now has role=”status” for better screen reader 
   compatibility.
 * New: Four card style presets — Classic Card, Overlay, Horizontal, and Minimal.
 * New: Profile Modal / Lightbox — enable a full-profile popup on card click.
 * New: Modal is fully accessible — focus trap, ESC to close, ARIA roles, keyboard
   navigation.
 * New: Modal pulls rich profile data from the REST API.
 * Improvement: Replaced jQuery AJAX with native fetch() — removes jQuery dependency.
 * Improvement: Card style preserved on AJAX filter/load-more requests.

#### 1.0.1

 * Fix: Added missing elementor-editor.css file.
 * Fix: Team Grid Elementor widget empty-state in the editor.
 * Fix: Added get_script_depends() and get_style_depends() to both Elementor widgets.
 * Improvement: Elementor Team Grid Style tab now includes controls for Job Title,
   Bio, Filter Tabs, Social Icons, and vCard button.
