Are We Talking About the New Grid or Old Grid?

    It seems there’s a newer way of doing the grid using CSS, which is not as flexible as the old way, but easier to handle. As far as I can tell it appears to be based on the Bootstrap Grid, but with some refinements. Have you looked into the new CSS Grid?

    Hi,

    The way i write a plugin is described here.
    Grid WUD is not based on the Bootstrap Grid, which is using a totally other way to create grids.
    Grid WUD uses only 1 type of short code to create tiles/grids/galleries or widgets, beside that it’s 90% CSS3 and 10% JQuery based.

    All grids/tiles are stored in the file: grid-wud.css
    You wil see there sections from:
    #grid-1-wud-wrapper-1 to #grid-1-wud-wrapper-20
    and this until:
    #grid-7-wud-wrapper-1 to #grid-7-wud-wrapper-20.
    Here are all the available types of grids/tiles stored.

    Is this an answer to your question?

    Regards, Danny

    To correct your misapprehension, I’m not talking about BootStrap, but about CSS. I think it comes under CSS3 Grids, but try a search on CSS3 Grids to see what you get.

    And now that I’ve been reminded; have you thought about including other CSS3 Grid functions?

    Hello,

    Sorry for my misunderstanding …

    Seems to be a nice thing the CSS3 Grids, however it’s not yet all browsers supported.
    CSS3 Grids
    I can start already with it and let the end user decide (with a drop-down list) which one they want to use.

    To answer your question … yes ?? i will include it (as an option).
    Note here that it takes some time to learn and implement this CSS3 Grids.

    Regards, Danny

    Hello,

    I did some search today and discovered that this CSS3 Grids is not ready yet.
    Some sample and explanation: https://wud-plugins.com/wp-help/grids-css3-nok/
    Maybe it’s better to wait until we can do something with it.
    If you have some working samples, let me know ??

    Hi,

    I mark this topic as resolved, there CSS Grids is not ready for public release.
    Not all browsers support this kind of CSS, so we have to wait until it is …

    I agree. Adobe’s Regions sounded like a good idea, but it turned out to be too fussy for many folks. Flexboxes and the new Grids not so much, but still it is a good idea to get things hammered out before they become a standard.

    In any case I thank you for your replies, and I apologize for not answering sooner.
