Description
Members Directory creates public member listing pages in WordPress, displaying profiles registered in a navigable directory with filters by role, registration date, and custom fields. It is aimed at those who maintain communities, BuddyPress networks, membership sites, or multisites and need to turn the user base into an accessible catalog, with pagination, name search, and a direct link to each individual profile.

Who Is Members Directory For?
- Those maintaining a BuddyPress community who want to expose profiles on a discovery page.

How to Download Members Directory
Members Directory is available for download here on Ultrapack. After downloading the .zip file, install it at Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, select the file, and activate it. The new configuration section appears in the admin menu, where you define the directory page, filters, and member display model.
For sites already operating with user registration or active communities, Members Directory solves a common gap in WordPress: the lack of a native member listing available to the public. Configuration via dashboard keeps control in the administrator’s hands, without requiring custom development to display, filter, or sort the profiles registered in the database.
