I need a page with 2 columns, one english and the other for the Dutch language.
But I do not know anything about codes.
I did upload the plugin and see all the different possibilities of the columns. I took de button 2 columns and I get the following.
[one-half-first][/one-half-first][one-half][/one-half]
What do I have to do next?
]]>Hi and thank you for the plugin!
I use it often, but find that all the buttons can sort of clog up the toolbar in the editor, and often the column buttons are not used that often.
Could I suggest an option in the settings that allows us to move the buttons to the second row of the TinyMCE editor?
It would mean adding a checkbox in the settings options and then conditionally changing
add_filter('mce_buttons', 'gc_register_button');
to
add_filter('mce_buttons_2', 'gc_register_button');
when I try to add a line of text to an existing column, a space is added above the text line. I have added a name at the end of the 3rd column as an example. How do I get rid of the space between names? Below is a link to the page.
]]>Hey there,
Quite happy to use your plugin and it was very helpful.
But recently, a minor issue occurred regarding mobile responsive. The columns used to be mobile responsive as they would automatically change to vertical on mobile as screen size goes down, while, now, it just sticked to, for instance, 3 columns, in which case the images are simply down size and quite hard to read.
Could you help to advise on this issue?
Thank you.

]]>Hello,
How can I put a color background to the box? I have made a three column and in order to differenciate from the previous area, I would like a different color in all the area that enclose the columns.
Thanks in advance,

]]>I know the columns have classes, but what if I want two x two columns inside a post? In between I want a header. Can I give certain columns an extra class like this?
[one-half-first class=”top”]Test[/one-half-first][one-half class=”top”]Test[/one-half]
<h2>Subtitle</h2>
[one-half-first]Test[/one-half-first][one-half]Test[/one-half]
I need that to style the top a bit different from the second one.
]]>I downloaded this plugin because the div-code for 5 columns that I found online wasn’t working. But neither did the plugin. After some research I found that Genesis 2.0 dropped the 5 column option because it didn’t fit the grid being used by Twitter Bootstrap — which Genesis is based on? (guessing on this last part, as I don’t understand what one has to do with the other).
Anyway, I added the 5 column code back in to my child theme CSS and all was well — until I viewed it on an iPhone. UGH. Obviously there is no if/then blah blah blah for the 5 column layout for smaller screens.
Is there anything I can do besides diving into that? (Which I absolutely don’t want to do).
]]>Hi, thanks for your plugin. I’ve seen it mentioned here a couple of times, it would be really good if we could use your shortcodes to create columns that aren’t of equal width (like Genesis allows us to do with HTML). For example, 2 columns, the first column being ‘two-thirds’ in width and the second column being ‘one-third’ in width.
They don’t need extra buttons, but would be great for people wanting more advanced layouts but who don’t want to use HTML.
eg.
[two-thirds-first]First Column[/two-thirds-first][one-third]Second Column[/one-third]
Hi!
This plugin has a conflict with the “WP Mobile Detect” plugin, probably because it uses [tab] and [tabs] shortcodes. Any help to avoid the conflict, keeping both plugins?
Thank you.
Hello,
Having an issue where the Column Buttons only appear in the editor for Editors and Admins. Note this is using WP 3.9.1 G 2.1.2 and TinyMCE Advanced 4.02 on a custom Genesis Child Theme.
]]>I do not have the Genesis theme, but I did add the css to my theme’s style sheet.
I’m trying to make a left column 3/4 wide and a right column 1/4 wide.
I used the classes three-fourths and one-fourth in the shortcode, starting with [three-fourths] and wrapping that column with [/three-fourths], and then doing the same for the one-fourth column. However, nothing happens, the shortcode just shows up as text. I also tried [three-fourths-first], but that doesn’t work.
How do you use these classes?
I also tried just using [one-half-first] and changing the css for that to a different percentage (72%), as well as changing the percentage of the next column [one-half], but that just resulted in both being the percentage of the [one-half] for two very skinny columns.
Please help. Thanks.
]]>I am trying to make an artist gallery page and it’s not working. Did check the additional CSS even though I am a Genesis user (Modern Portfolio Pro).

Any ideas?

]]>Hi, I have installed Genesis Easy Columns.
From Q&A:
“You must have the necessary CSS to format the columns. Genesis users should have this in your styles.css. Non-Genesis users should convert, but if you want to stick with your current theme- simply use the optional CSS loacted in the plugin directory and add it to your themes CSS.”
I don’t know how to do this.
With best regards,
Magnar
Thank you for this valuable plugin. I notice that on small screens like on the iPhone there will become more space between the then vertically oriented columns than between the paragraphs. Is this intentional? Can the space between columns on small screens be adjusted to equal the space between paragraphs?
]]>Hello Plugin Support
I recently activated the Genesis Easy Columns plugin and I am not able to get the text to appear in column format. When I click the column menu button they appear in rows:
[one-third-first][/one-third-first][one-third][/one-third][one-third][/one-third]
How am I to insert the text so that it will appear in column format? It is probably quite simply, but I appear to be having a brain freeze.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Is it possible to merge columns?
Like the equivalent of <div class=”two-thirds first”> </div><div class=”one-third”> </div>
Thanks

Hi
is there any way I can make the center column in my 3 column layout wider? The center column has too much white space either side of it.
thanks

For some reason the footer floats over the top of the columns, very strange.
]]>With Genesis 2.01 and WP 3.71 this adds extra <p></p> tags between image and image captions.
I deactivated the plugin and the extra <p></p> tags are removed and normal caption spacing returns.
This occurs using both the WYSIWYG or text editor. Please let me know when this issue is fixed because this is a very helpful plugin – I prefer to using the snippets in text expander. Easier for clients, too.
]]>There is an issue with this plugin adding the filter ‘wpautop’ to ‘the_content’ in shortcodes.php.
The problem is two-fold.
Problem #1
If another plugin which manages/disables wpautop has removed the filter prior to this plugin running then this plugin will re-enable the filter anyway breaking the other plugin’s functionality.
The solution here needs to be a check at the beginning of shortcodes.php to see if the filter exists in the first place. At the end of the file, where the filter is re-enabled there needs to be a conditional check based on the initial state before re-enabling the filter.
i.e At the beginning:
//Turn editor auto format off
$wpautop_on = has_filter('the_content', 'wpautop');
if ($wpautop_on) {
remove_filter( 'the_content', 'wpautop' );
}
At the end:
//Turn auto format back on
if ($wpautop_on) {
add_filter( 'the_content', 'wpautop');
}
Problem #2
When you re-enable the wpautop filter at the end of the shortcodes.php file, you are adding it with priority 12. However the default filter in wp-includes/default-filters.php is at default priority, i.e. priority 10. Again, this breaks any other code that assumes this filter is at 10 or that has a legitimate reason to change the filter’s priority to something else.
So, actually the add_filter line should look as follows to preserve the priority:
`add_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘wpautop’, (is_int($wpautop_on) ? $wpautop_on : 10));
I would kindly ask if you could ensure that this, or a similar fix is added to the next release of the plugin.

]]>I am using Parabola theme, and I want to create two columns on the page https://jandbconcreteindustries.com/services – one on the left describing services, and then one on the right containing images. I use Image pro plug in for my images (tried disabling it – didnt do a thing) I checked enable css under settings – easy columns.
The plug in is not creating any columns, is there a CSS code i need to insert manually? or does it automatically do it when i checked the box? Any ideas of how i fix this issue and get the columns i desire?
Thanks
Using this plugin with Genesis 2.0 causes line breaks all throughout several themes. You’ll have to take a look at this one. Drove me crazy being unable to find what was adding line breaks. Adds it into contact forms, any kind of generated form.
]]>Hey guys,
I am using the Genesis Plugin to have columns on the members page of a society website. https://www.nzcine.com/members
The problem I am having is aligning the small pictures beside each members name to the right of the column… while still be inline with the text (members name) on the left.
I have noticed the columns are favouring the left hand side as well.. as in, there is heaps of space on the right hand side, compared to the left
Can any one help me with this issue?
Cheers, Cameron.
]]>The new CSS in Genesis 2.0 no longer defines the clear and clear-line CSS classes so the buttons/shortcodes for these no longer work.
For now the fix is to paste the following into your CSS:
.clear {
clear: both;
}
.clear-line {
border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd;
clear: both;
margin: 0 0 25px;
}
Also, for some reason I couldn’t get the .clearfix available in Genesis 2.0 to work with this. Sorry, but I don’t have the time to look into it properly at the moment.
]]>I’m trying to use the one-third column shortodes.
They are coming through with no dramas, only the displaying of them once published is not correct.
What happens is that the first 2 columns are shown correctly, but the third is being displayed under the first instead of next to the second.
(https://www.beacheddesigns.com.au/services/logo-design)
This error is not displayed if I use the one-fourth columns with the fourth being left blank….
Any help is appreciated.
]]>Instead of the information being nested in columns, they are nested in rows.
[one-fifth-first]1[/one-fifth-first][one-fifth]2[/one-fifth][one-fifth]3[/one-fifth][one-fifth]4[/one-fifth][one-fifth]5[/one-fifth]
This produced 5 rows rather than 5 columns.
