Posts in 3 or 4 columns

Had to truncate the post…

for any number of columns:

</td>
    <?php $num_columns = 4; //set the number of columns here//
	if ($column == $num_columns) echo "</tr>"; $column++; (($column>$num_columns) ? $column=1 : $column=$column); ?>
	<?php // END of the LOOP
	endwhile;
	if ($column != 1) do { echo '<td class="column'.$column.'"></td>'; $column++;
	} while( $column <= $num_columns );
	if ($column != 1) echo "</tr>";?>
	</table>

this code is designed to fill the row with empty cells to finish the table properly.

Thank you, I am going to try in a minute.

Would the correct CSS code be the following for the above example?
.column {width: 25%;}

there is no need/purpose to use a css style;

the code does not generate a css class .column for the td tags

‘Paypal’ drink on me this Sunday, thank you very much.

cheers – you are welcome ??

How do I turn this into a template for pages?

have you read: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Pages#Page_Templates ?

you would need to make a custom query before the loop to tell the loop what posts to show.
https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/query_posts
all parameter: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Parameters

i.e. you need to decide what you want to show in the page template, and then create the query accordingly.

if you get stuck, please paste the full code of the template into a https://pastebin.com/ and post the link to it here (how to: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Forum_Welcome#Posting_Code )

Ok, thanks, I am trying it: https://pastebin.com/GB3Gz85d

please re-read: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Pages#Page_Templates

what part of these instructions do you not understand?

what you want to show in the page template?

then re-read: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/query_posts

see how far you get, then tell us what worked or what did not work, and what part of the instructions do you not understand.

This is the new link.
I just added the following to my previous example:

<?php
/*
Template Name: PageOfPosts
*/
?>

would like to achieve something like “A Page of Posts”
