Trainers are a custom post type for showcasing your gym’s instructors and personal trainers with profiles, photos, quotes, and contact forms.
The Trainers Screen
Navigate to Trainers in the WordPress admin sidebar to see all your trainers. The screen works like the standard Posts screen — you can edit, delete, or view individual trainers using the links under each title. Use Quick Edit for fast inline changes, or Bulk Actions to update multiple items at once.
Organizing with Categories
Trainers have their own category taxonomy. Go to Trainers → Categories to create and manage categories. Assign categories when editing individual trainers to keep your content organized.
Displaying Trainers on a Page
To create a page that lists your trainers:
- Go to Pages → Add New.
- Give the page a title (e.g., “Trainers”).
- In the Page Attributes panel, select the Trainers template.
- Save the page — the archive options will appear below the editor.
Archive Options
- Category — Filter to show trainers from a specific category.
- Number of Columns — Choose 1, 2, 3, or 4 column layout.
- Trainers per Page — Set how many trainers to display per page (1–100, default: 9).
