Thanks! Next up, pick n’ click column styles and more div/container options. Any thoughts?

I should have this updated this week. Sorry, got a few projects screaming for attention!

I had the timer in there before because at one point I had some caching issues, or at least that excuse sounds good! I removed it for the next build, and I’ll minimize the CSS as well.

Yup, looks like I’ll need to add a little more CSS to float everything left. I’ll work on a fix and load to the repo. So the prpopsed widths and breakpoints are good then?

It looks like you’re hitting a carriage return/enter after you insert the columns, which is where WordPress automatically inserts the <p> tags. So that’s not Easy Columns inserting that code. The shortcodes do automatically strip the autoP functionality to ensure that columnn content isn’t wrapped in <p> tags.

What you’ll need to do is go into the html mode and remove them, or not hit the enter key when adding the columns.

You could do this with Easy Columns. To get rid of the gap, just go to Settings > Easy Columns and edit the options to change the margins to “0px”. However, that’ll affect any column created with the plugin sitewide. It may be better to add some CSS to the site like:

.gallery {
margin: 0px !important;
}

Then when you create the columns, add that class to the column like so:

[ezcol_1half class=”gallery”]content here[ezcol_1half class=”gallery”]

I’m working on a newer version that’ll let you bulk set classes to columns, as well as pick from several styles.

Whoops, I accidentally left some text enhancements in the css. I’ll remove in the next update.

Here’s my proposal guys:

.ezcol>* {
	/* parent class added to all columns.
	keeps all content from  overflowing*/
	max-width: 100%;
}

@media all and (max-width: 768px) {
	.ezcol-one-quarter,
	.ezcol-one-half,
	.ezcol-three-quarter,
	.ezcol-one-third,
	.ezcol-two-third,
	.ezcol-one-fifth,
	.ezcol-two-fifth,
	.ezcol-three-fifth,
	.ezcol-four-fifth {
		width: 48% !important;
		margin-right: 2%;
	}
}
@media all and (max-width: 480px) {
	.ezcol-one-quarter,
	.ezcol-one-half,
	.ezcol-three-quarter,
	.ezcol-one-third,
	.ezcol-two-third,
	.ezcol-one-fifth,
	.ezcol-two-fifth,
	.ezcol-three-fifth,
	.ezcol-four-fifth {
		width: 100% !important;
		margin-right: 0;
	}
}

Let me know if that works and I’ll release an update.

I’m actually working on the finishing touches to 2.1.1 as I type. I was wondering what I’d be able to do with the column widths to make them truly responsive since they can vary in width. So the common consensus is we go 100% width at max-width 600?

I was going to make the CSS take all columns to 50% at max-width 768 and 100% at 480. will this work?

I think we got that fixed, didn’t we? Please let me know. I’ve tested this with all the shortcodes, both new and legacy.

Nope, scratch that. One of our people was pasting links to images on another domain that we have, and that was causing the problem. Plugin is working great!

Sorry, it’s still not changing the path on images. Style sheets and everything else looks great, but content assets aren’t being forced to use shared ssl path.

SilentLikeFish – on a side note, I’d be very interested in seeing how you have yourself set up on EC2 – I’ve been wanting to migrate that direction myself!

Thanks Andrea – looks like I’ll be calling support! I REALLY need to finish getting my own hosting going on Amazon’s EC2 …

Yes, it’s shared hosting, but apparently they support it now if you’re using the subdirectory install. I can’t imagine having the static IP would make network settings show up though, right?
