Blocks
Author Profile Blocks
Author boxes and team pages for the block editor
Show your authors and team members in polished cards, grids, lists and carousels, straight from the block editor.
What is Author Profile Blocks?
Author Profile Blocks helps you introduce the people behind your site. Add a single author card, a grid of your team, a list, or a carousel, all from the block editor and all in a refined design that fits most themes.
Show WordPress users, or keep a separate team list for people who do not have a login, with photo, position, bio and social links.
Who it is for
- Blogs and magazines with several writers
- Agencies building About and Team pages
- Organisations that want to introduce their people
What you get
The main things Author Profile Blocks does for you.
Users or a team list
Show your WordPress authors, or add team members separately, with departments to group them.
Photo, position and links
Each person can have a photo, job title, bio, location and links to their social profiles and website.
Designed to look good
Card, minimal, bordered and shadow styles, with animations and hover effects you can switch on or off.
Yours to adjust
Change colours, fonts, spacing and the shape of the photo from the block settings.
Works in any theme
Blocks work in classic and block themes, and shortcodes and a widget cover older setups.
Quick to load
Pages are prepared ahead, and photos load only as they scroll into view.

Common questions
Quick answers before you install.
Do I have to use WordPress users?
No. You can show users, a separate team list, or both.
Can I show only some people?
Yes. Filter by role, or by department for team members.
Does it work with block themes?
Yes. It works in both classic and full-site-editing themes.
Will it slow my site?
No. Each block saves its output so repeat visits load quickly.
