Questions ## Team Spotlight: common questions What is Team Spotlight for? For introducing a small senior team, when each person deserves a full profile with a quote and focus areas rather than a thumbnail. Typical uses: about us page, meet the founders and studio leadership section. Does Team Spotlight need a plugin? Yes. Designed Patterns come with a subscription, which includes the Pattern Paste plugin that runs them; Team Spotlight arrived in plugin 0.23.0. Without the plugin, or on an older version, it pastes as plain WordPress blocks: the content reads in order, without the designed layout. What can I edit in Team Spotlight? As pasted it has 7 headings and 31 text lines, 22 of them optional and removable. The people are a repeatable set: the item controls add one or remove the last. The layout stays protected while you edit. Unlock layout, in the section’s settings, lets you insert, move and remove any block. Will Team Spotlight match my theme? Choose Designed to keep its own palette and type, or Use my theme to let it follow your theme’s colours and fonts. Either works in any block theme on WordPress 7.0 or later. Choose Use my theme in the preview above to see it follow a theme before you copy. Can the motion be switched off? Yes. Turn off Animate changes in the section settings, and visitors who ask their device for reduced motion get the same: the section shows its final state at once and anything they can press or drag still works. With JavaScript off, all content stays visible.
