Lightweight Grid Columns and Category Description
7 replies · Started by surfing on March 24, 2018
I'm entering descriptions into post categories. I click on an existing category and then I see the Lightweight Grid Columns toggle when using the visual editor. I set up my text and columns using LGC and then save. Below is what I see when viewing the post category on the front end.
[lgc_column grid="50" tablet_grid="50" mobile_grid="100" last="false"]first col[/lgc_column][lgc_column grid="50" tablet_grid="50" mobile_grid="100" last="true"]second col[/lgc_column]
How can I get the columns to work within post categories?
Hi there,
Not sure if I understand.
Can you link me to the site in question?
You can edit the original topic and use the private URL field.
Let me know :)
It's on my localhost dev computer. I notice that the code didn't come through clearly on my last post so I added an exrta l in llgc. Here is what I see on the frontend after using LGC within Post categories within admin:
[llgc_column grid="50" tablet_grid="50" mobile_grid="100" last="false"]first column[/llgc_column][llgc_column grid="50" tablet_grid="50" mobile_grid="100" last="true"]second column[/llgc_column]
Sorry where exactly are you entering the code?
Perhaps that field doesn't accept HTML?
In WP admin go to posts > categories > edit category then you will see a text editor for entering a description for the selected category. Please notice the LGC option in the text editor.
Hmm this screen? http://www.screencast.com/t/IbzecOY7kS
Perhaps you need a plugin like this? https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/allow-html-in-category-descriptions/
No, that is for a new category. Edit an existing category. Then you will see the editor and the LGC option when selecting the visual tab.
No, that was edit category as the title indicated.

Not sure why you are seeing the visual window but WordPress does not allow HTML in category description which is what the plugin is for.
