[Resolved] An extra column?

[Trevor Jordan]

I’ve just bought GeneratePress and GP-Premium and already I like it a lot: pretty much does everything I wanted for my new website. But it would be even better if I could have four columns for the content (i can live with just one sidebar). Can it be done, please?

I’ll be adding some shortcodes in an addon to create columns, but for now, I use this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/leightweight-grid-columns/

Let me know if this helps or not 🙂

Sorry, didn’t make myself clear. I have used grid-column to create columns within individual posts and that’s fine, but what I’m looking to do is have four ‘masonry blocks’ side by side on the screen.

Ah – gotcha!

As of right now, masonry will display however many columns it can comfortable within the container width. By default, this is usually 3 columns. If you make your container width larger, it should go to four.

I’m looking to add a feature in the future that lets you choose how many columns, but I’m not quite there yet.

OK, I widened the container to 1500px and got four masonry blocks side by side, but I look forward to the possibility of deciding to do that even with a narrower container so my audience can see it the way I want to see it.

Thanks for your quick and most helpful responses. This was the best $30 I’ve spent in as many months!

[Tom]

Definitely working on it 🙂

Thanks, that’s awesome!
