Group Members

Group Members​

Lists the members of a LifterLMS group in a grid of one to six columns. Each card shows the member's avatar, display name and group role, and you can switch any of the three off. The widget reads the group from the page it sits on, or from a group you pick in the panel, and sits under the Lifter Elements - Groups category of the Elementor widget panel.

Requires LifterLMS Groups

This widget is registered only when the LifterLMS Groups add-on is active alongside Lifter Elements.

Group Members widget rendered as a four-column grid of member cards with avatar, name and role

Usage​

Member roster on a group page — Add the widget to an Elementor Theme Builder template for the group post type (see Create a Group Landing Template) and leave Use Current Group on Yes. Every group that uses the template lists its own members. Pair it with the Group Member Count dynamic tag in a heading for a "12 members" caption.

Leaders-only roster — Put the widget in a section that only leaders and admins see, using the User group role condition on the section's Advanced tab (see Create a Leader-Only Sidebar). The widget itself renders the same grid for every visitor, so conditional logic is how you hide it from ordinary members or from visitors outside the group.

Featured cohort on a marketing page — Set Use Current Group to No and pick a group under Group to show one group's members on any page, for example a "meet the current cohort" block. Combine with Show Role set to Hide if the roles are not meaningful to prospects.

Groups directory — To list groups rather than the people in one group, use the Groups List widget.

How it works​

The widget asks LifterLMS Groups for the group's members with an active enrollment and prints one card per member, up to the Members to Show limit. It does not check who is viewing: a visitor who can open the page sees the grid, whatever their group role or whether they belong to the group at all. Restrict the page with the group's visibility setting in LifterLMS Groups, or the widget with Conditional Logic.

SituationBehaviour
Use Current Group is Yes on a single group page or a Theme Builder template for the group post typeMembers of the group being viewed are listed.
Use Current Group is Yes anywhere elseNo group can be found, so the widget prints the text "No group specified." instead of a grid. Switch to No and pick a Group on ordinary pages.
Use Current Group is No and no Group is chosenPrints "No group specified."
The group has no members with an active enrollmentPrints the Empty Message text (default "No members found."). Removed, cancelled or expired members are not counted.
The group has more members than Members to ShowOnly the first batch is listed; there is no pagination. Raise Members to Show (maximum 100) to list more.
Show Role is Show but a member has no role recordedThe card prints without a role line.
The visitor is a leader, admin, member or non-memberThe grid is identical for all of them.

Role labels come from LifterLMS Groups: Member, the leader name set in the add-on's settings (default Leader), and the group name plus Administrator (default Group Administrator).
