Add People with headshots and bios

Add cast and crew names under People >> Add New. Once artists are added, you can connect them to events and display them on flex pages. The most important info to add for a person is their headshot and Person Type (Cast, Staff, Teaching Artists, Musicians, etc). 




Add People to Events

Add cast headshots to event pages. A sample of how this looks (scroll to the bottom): http://archetype.gameflow.design/events/romeo-and-juliet/

  • Add a person to event on either the event page or the person page. 
  • Scroll down, the controls should be at the bottom:


Update the header for this section under Special Event Settings >> Related People Title. 



Displaying Artists on Tabbed Event Pages

When events are in Tabbed Content mode, you need to specify which tab should display your list of people.

  1. Add a tab for your Cast / Crew / Featured Artists list
  2. Add the People List Content Block.

    On an event, the People List block is set up to display the content of your "Artists to Display on this Event" field.
  3. Select a List Layout under Special Event Settings >> Related People Layout People List blocks have three layouts: Grid with Headshots, Text List, and Two Column List by Role Type. 



Add People to Flex Pages

This is good for a staff directory page or a listing of your teaching artists. For example: http://archetype.gameflow.design/our-company/

  • Create a new page. 
  • Add a new tab. 
  • Click "Add Content Block", then click People. 
  • Select the People Type you'd like (Staff, Cast, Teaching Artists, Musicians, etc.) 
  • Select a List Layout.   People List blocks have three layouts: Grid with Headshots, Text List, and Two Column List by People Type. Use a text layout when many people don't have headshots. People lists can also show phone numbers, which is useful for staff directories.

    Two Column List by People Type



  • Choose whether to display Bios on the page, or link to the person detail page if it is enabled.



Reorder People

People lists can be ordered either alphabetically or manually.  This setting is global on your site, and can be set in Groundplan Theme Settings >> People Settings.  In addition, for staff views that contain a large number of People Types, e.g. Orchestras, Gameflow can enable reordering People within a Person Type.

To order people manually:

  1. Go to People >> Reorder. 
  2. If Reordering by Type is enabled, click the "Reorder by Term" tab and select the Person Type you wish to reorder.
  3. Drag and drop people into your preferred order.
