Short Bio
A Short Bio page features multiple people on a single page and is ideal for providing brief bios with basic information; Short Bio pages are often used as contact pages. Unlike regular Bio pages, Short Bio pages do not require you to create a separate page for each person.
Short Bio pages include the following features:
- Pre-defined fields for a variety of information including name, title, department and contact information
- Option to upload a photo
- Sidebar for website links
- A single open text area for bio
- Hero and additional content area
Short Bio pages are styled with alternating rows of grey and white.
