This plugin **hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress**.
It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when
used with more recent versions of WordPress.

## Sharraxaad

Lightweight Grid Columns are super easy to use! Install and activate the plugin,
then look for the columns icon within your TinyMCE toolbar (see screenshots).

Specify your desired desktop, tablet and mobile widths of the columns, add your 
content and then insert your shortcode into your content.

Lightweight Grid Columns uses the awesome Unsemantic Framework: (http://unsemantic.
com/)

Check out GeneratePress, our awesome WordPress theme! (https://wordpress.org/themes/
generatepress)

#### Features include:

 * Desktop grid width
 * Tablet grid width
 * Mobile grid width
 * Add custom classes
 * Add custom inline styles
 * Equal height columns

## Rakibaad

There’s two ways to install Lightweight Grid Columns.

 1. Go to “Plugins > Add New” in your Dashboard and search for: Lightweight Grid Columns
 2. Download the .zip from WordPress.org, and upload the folder to the `/wp-content/
    plugins/` directory via FTP.

In most cases, #1 will work fine and is way easier.

## SBI

  How do I add the shortcodes?

 * Make sure Lightweight Grid Columns is activated.
 * While editing your post or page, go into the “Visual Editor”.
 * Look for the columns icon (see screenshots tab).
 * Choose your desktop, tablet and mobile grid widths.
 * If you’re adding the last column in a row, check the “Last” checkbox (this is
   important).

  What if I don’t want to use the TinyMCE button?

Fair enough! Simply add the shortcode to your content.

For example, the below will output 4 columns on desktop, 2 columns on tablet and
1 column on mobile

    ```
    [lgc_column grid="25" tablet_grid="50" mobile_grid="100"]Some content[/lgc_column]

    [lgc_column grid="25" tablet_grid="50" mobile_grid="100"]Some content[/lgc_column]

    [lgc_column grid="25" tablet_grid="50" mobile_grid="100"]Some content[/lgc_column]

    [lgc_column grid="25" tablet_grid="50" mobile_grid="100" last="true"]Some content[/lgc_column]
    ```

Take note of our last column – see the last=”true” part? Don’t forget 😉

  What are my options for percentages?

This is taken directly from (http://unsemantic.com):

There are grid classes named grid-x where “x” is a number that represents the percentage
width of each grid unit. These cover multiples of 5, up to 100 (grid-5, grid-10 …
grid-95, grid-100). There are also classes for dividing a page into thirds: grid-
33 and grid-66 which are 33.3333% and 66.6667% wide, respectively.

  Are there any other options I can use in the shortcode?

Yes!

You can use:

  class

[lgc_column grid=”25″ tablet_grid=”50″ mobile_grid=”100″ class=”push-25″]Some content[/
lgc_column]

  style

[lgc_column grid=”25″ tablet_grid=”50″ mobile_grid=”100″ style=”padding-left:0px;”]
Some content[/lgc_column]

  equal_heights

By default, JS equal heights are set to “true”.

    ```
    [lgc_column grid="25" tablet_grid="50" mobile_grid="100" equal_heights="true"]Some content[/lgc_column]
    ```

The admin bar breaks upon installation and activation of this plugin. If you’re 
having similar issues, deactivate to troubleshoot.

The plugin does exactly what it is designed to do. Does it without all the bloat
too. I use the classic editor and absolutely love this plugin:) Seems many are trying
to make it over complicated. Just follow the instructions folks… I do no use Gutenburg
and will not until it matures. Maybe at that time this plugin would make a great
block for Gutenburg. Thank you Tom for sharing it with us!

Great Plugin, I recently started using Gutenberg and if you could turn this into
a Block that would be awesome. Maybe for Generatepress, as a feature.
