Hi @fkohrt,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you on this. We have identified an unexpected style conflict that was previously introduced and removed in CoBlocks version 2.22.6. Would you mind giving that a test and seeing if it resolves the issue?

Hi @webbmonster,

Sorry to see this is going on for you on your site. I had a quick look and I see the gallery show briefly while loading but then disappears surprisingly. Looking through the page code I see that you have the gallery and I also see that the relevant scripts masonry-js and coblocks-masonry-js are present which should in theory be all that these galleries need to work correctly.

Do you mind identifying the versions that you are running for WordPress and CoBlocks? You mentioned a PHP upgrade, what was that change specifically?

Thanks,

Anthony

Hi @goingawesomeplaces,

There was an issue discovered with some galleries on published pages that were set up using old versions of CoBlocks. This issue has been resolved and we have pushed out a patch release of 2.22.1 which resolves the issue specified.

Do you mind testing the new version and letting us know what your results are? If you encounter further issues please do make a new support request where we can continue to investigate.

Best regards,

Anthony

Hi @stef-nikkel,

Thank you for taking the time to write such a descriptive report of the issue as well as sharing your CSS fix and re-creating the issue for me to see. I see the issue now. I suppose this issue is exacerbated when a variety of image sizes are present. Regardless we will take a look at this and see if we can get a fix in place.

For reference, I attempted using the solution that you have here but I am still not able to achieve consistent masonry depending on image height.

I have filed a bug report so our developers are made aware and can work to resolve this issue. The bug report can be found here:

Hi @stef-nikkel,

I’ve attempted to replicate your report on the staging site provided using all the latest versions of Safari, Chrome, Firefox, and (unsupported) Internet Explorer. In all cases, I am seeing the same layout with these images where the portrait image does not have an image below. What browser are you using specifically and what version?

Hi @sybakhar,

CoBlocks version 2.21.5 has been released which solves this issue. Thank you for taking the time to make the report to us.

Hi @sheratonwalls,

I am not sure what the issue is what the controls that remove the top and bottom spacing are. Are you able to provide any more information about the issue you are encountering? I was able to successfully use the controls on a few blocks without issue.

Hi @wardencenter,

Thank you for this support request. Yes, you are right the Masonry gallery has changed. Yes, we do have plans to add the ability for a user to specify the column count on the Masonry gallery.

Here is some CSS you can use to set a custom column count on all masonry galleries.

/* Masonry on mobile */
@media only screen and (min-width: 1px) and (max-width: 768px) {
    figure.wp-block-coblocks-gallery-masonry {
        column-count: 1 !important;
    }
}

/* Masonry on tablets */
@media only screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1023px) {
    figure.wp-block-coblocks-gallery-masonry {
        column-count: 2 !important;
    }
}

/* Masonry on big screens */
@media only screen and (min-width: 1024px) {
    figure.wp-block-coblocks-gallery-masonry {
        column-count: 4 !important;
    }
}

Best regards,

Anthony

Hi @uprantl,

Thank you for writing this support request. It is true that the Masonry gallery has changed from rows to columns. There is no pure CSS way to accomplish a row layout with the elements and there was a need to switch away from the JavaScript solution that was in use prior. Unfortunately for that reason the Masonry gallery now lays out images in columns. I would like to add a feature to the Masonry gallery in the future where a user can toggle on a script for a horizontal layout but that does not exist at this time. Furthermore, I would like to include the feature for a user to select the number of columns.

I am not sure about the same layout on mobile as on desktop as the mobile layout was one of the reasons for the need to switch away from the JavaScript solution. That I would need to know more about.

Best regards,

Anthony

Hi @createwithnomad,

It is true that the Masonry gallery has changed. For instance, the layout has essentially changed from rows to columns making the order of the gallery different. It is also true that the Ul/LI style is now different and the current structure is figure with nested figure > img elements. The Masonry layout is now CSS-based and does not rely on JavaScript to accomplish its layout.

I have not been able to replace a case where the new version of the Masonry block does not render in a masonry style. Please provide a bit more information about that.

Best,

Anthony

Hi @erin01234,

I am sorry to hear about your experience. Unfortunately with the release of 2.19.0, we had released a bug with the Row block to where block deprecations did not work as anticipated. We have now released a patch with version 2.19.1 that will resolve that issue and allow you to properly edit your site as before.

Best regards,

Anthony

Hi @miguelprado,

Thank you for taking some time to report this issue. Our team has taken some time to test out the block deprecations from previous versions including 2.18.0 and 2.17.0 of CoBlocks to see if we could replicate your reported issue however we were not able to repeat the errors.

Are you able to provide some additional information about the situation? What was the previous version of CoBlocks that you were running before your update? Also, I am curious what theme and other plugins you are running but I am not sure what could be causing the issue yet.

Best,

Anthony

Hi @mjgardner,

Thank you for taking some time to write this request for us. I would be glad to change this for you. Generally, I keep only the latest version changelog on the .org repo. In cases where we release a patch, it will essentially overwrite the changelog leaving a minimal list.

My initial thought is to include the changelog back to the last minor version update. Something like (2.18.0 -> 2.18.1) when patch exists or (2.17.0 -> 2.18.0) sans patch.

This change would likely come with the next CoBlocks release.

Best,

Anthony

Hi @theinnerlynk,

Thank you for letting us know about this issue and thank you @verygoode for the prompt follow-up. We have pushed out CoBlocks 2.18.1 which will resolve this bug. We appreciate the time you have taken to bring this to our attention.

Best regards
