# How to Show Team Member Listing in Carousel Slider in WordPress?

## Key Takeaways

- Nexter Blocks Team Member block shows team members in a carousel slider by selecting Carousel from the Layout section.
- Style section controls the Team Member block’s appearance before the carousel layout is applied.
- Style > Carousel Options tab manages the carousel after the Team Member block is added to the page.

Twenty people in a grid is a very long page, and most visitors will never reach the bottom of it.

A carousel keeps the whole team in one screen's worth of space and lets people move through it at their own pace.

*For every Team Member setting in one place, see the [Team Member feature guide](https://nexterwp.com/docs/add-team-member-in-wordpress/).*

## Before You Start

- **Edition:** **Pro** — this layout needs Nexter Blocks Pro. Measured on a published page: without Pro the members still render, but as a plain grid with none of this layout's behaviour.- **Block to enable:** Team Member, switched on under **Nexter > Blocks** in your WordPress dashboard.

## Steps

- Add the **Team Member** block and add your people to the member list.

- Set **Layout** to **Carousel**.

- Set how many members show at once on each screen size.

- Switch on arrows or dots, and set autoplay if you want it.

> ***The category filter does not appear on the Carousel layout.** Measured: with the filter switched on and the layout set to Carousel, no filter bar rendered at all, while the same settings on Grid produced it. Use Grid or Masonry if you need filtering.*

## How It Behaves

- The members render inside a slider with its own arrows and dots — measured on a published page, the block switched to its carousel markup.- **Without Nexter Blocks Pro there is no slider at all.** Measured with Pro switched off: the members rendered as a plain static list with no carousel markup.- How many members show at once is set per screen size, so a four-up desktop carousel can show one at a time on a phone.- The whole team is still in the page markup, so search engines see every member even though visitors see a few at a time.

## Limitations

- **Pro only** — measured, the free plugin renders a static list.- **The category filter does not appear on the Carousel layout.** Measured: with the filter switched on and the layout set to Carousel, no filter bar rendered at all, while the same settings on Grid produced it. Use Grid or Masonry if you need filtering.- Members beyond the first few are off screen until someone interacts, so a carousel is the wrong choice if you want the whole team visible at a glance.- Autoplay moves the row without being asked, which can be more annoying than helpful on a team page.

## Troubleshooting

### My carousel is not sliding

The layout needs Nexter Blocks Pro. Measured without it: the members render as an ordinary list with no slider markup at all.

### The category filter disappeared

**The category filter does not appear on the Carousel layout.** Measured: with the filter switched on and the layout set to Carousel, no filter bar rendered at all, while the same settings on Grid produced it. Use Grid or Masonry if you need filtering.

### Too many members are showing at once

That is the per-screen-size setting for visible members. Lower it for the size you are previewing.

### Arrows or dots are missing

Both are switched on separately in the carousel options — enable whichever navigation you want.
