This plugin extends the existing Gutenberg Group and Post Template blocks by introducing responsive grid layout controls. This allows for a more customizable grid system that can adapt to various screen sizes.

Features

Grid Control (PRO)

Adds grid column controls for different devices directly within the “Group” and “Post Template” block.

Installation

  1. Upload grid-variation-options to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
  3. Simply navigate to any page/post editor and you can adjust the responsive grid via block settings (or via custom CSS classes if you’re a free user).
  4. (Optional) You can also modify the grid breakpoints from the admin dashboard (PRO).

How to use the free version?

Free users do not have access to the UI controls for changing grid settings and cannot customize breakpoints via the admin dashboard. They can utilize the predefined CSS classes for grid control as specified below.

After selecting the “Grid” variation for a Group or Post Template block, users can adjust the number of columns for different devices via custom CSS classes.
