## Description

ExpertFile users now have another quick and easy way to add their expert content
to their website, saving time, money, and IT resources. Modern, customizable templates
help you showcase your expertise in professional and accessible formats, complimenting
your current design and enhancing your WordPress website’s functionality. Pre-built
dynamic and customizable meta and schema data ensures your new content is SEO-friendly
for added discoverability. With full freeform search and dynamic filtering options,
visitors can easily explore the breadth of your expertise while integrated inquiry
workflows ensure that you never miss valuable connections.
 Your expert content 
can be added as part of a “new” purpose-specific page(s) such as an “Expert Directory/
Expert Center” or as a component of a current page such as your homepage, topic/
department page, or newsroom section of your website.

All your expert related content is available to be added which includes:

 * Expert & Staff Directories
 * Expert & Staff Profiles
 * Inquiry Forms
 * Feature Expert Callouts
 * Spotlights (News Posts)
 * ExpertAnswers (Q&A)

Once activated, you continue to control your expert content updates through your
ExpertFile dashboard with your changes automatically reflected on your website, 
all without having to continually log back into WordPress. To learn more about implementing
ExpertFile for WordPress visit: [expertfile.com/wordpress](https://expertfile.com/wordpress)

We are also integrated with popular plugins like “Yoast” and “All in One SEO” allowing
us to automatically add a sitemap URL with all your expert content to the sitemap
index file created by these plugins. For those not using “Yoast” or “All in One 
SEO” but running WordPress Version 5.5 or greater it will also be automatically 
added to the default sitemap that WP creates. **Note: To activate this plugin, you
require an ExpertFile subscription for your organization with administrative privileges.

### 󠀁[I highly recommend this Plug-In!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-highly-recommend-this-plug-in/)󠁿

I highly recommend this Plug-In.  Made our job a lot easier as a web agency.  We
recently used it to design an experts center and speakers bureau for a healthcare
client.  Super easy to set up.  Very intuitive.  Saves a lot of time on getting 
content layout to look nice in mobile and desktop.  But also incorporates some nice(
Elastic) search and filtering features to drive traffic. Very slick tech.  Does 
a nice job of integrating detailed expert profiles, posts and multimedia into a 
WordPress site. Some of the features I liked: “Shortcodes” they provide make setup
a lot easier Nice layout of the directory and profiles – looks amazing in mobile
as well. Like the built in features designed to boost SEO Also we were able to do
some nice customizations in the plug-in to accommodate the client Loved the search
and filtering functions (uses Elastic) to improve the UX.  Real-time tech support
was great for a few quick questions I had.  They actually talk to you over the phone!

At first I was just going to use embed code but the plugin was a better option. 
Reasons why ExpertFile's plugin is great: – The ease of setting up with the “shortcodes”–
Access to real-time support for any questions – Crisp layout of the directory and
profiles  – Customizable nature of the plug-in – Built in features around maximizing
SEO – The range of search and filtering options built into the directory
