Grid

Description

This plugin is no longer in active development. Have a look at BlockX for a similar editor and developer experience.

What is Grid?

• Grid allows Editors to easily create and maintain Landingpages
• Grid is build of a grid containing Containers and Boxes
• Grid is a CMS-neutral Library and this is the WordPress plugin that implements it

Types of Boxes

• Static Boxes –

• Free-HTML-Box

• Medialibrary-Box

• Video-Box

• List-Boxes –

• Ordered and filtered Lists of Contents

• Number of Items as well as criteria for sorting and filtering are configurable

• Configuration Boxes –

• Container configuration

• Slot configuration

• Content-Boxes –

• Single Posts of any kind as Teasers

• Reuseable Boxes –

• All Boxes may be reused across several Landingpages

Easy extendable with new boxes. Have a look at doc.the-grid.ws (english is coming soon).

2. Extract the Plugin to a grid Folder

FAQ

How do the async features like author control work? Does Grid talk to an external service?

Generally speaking, yes! But you can easily turn it off in grid settings. And there will be no talking to any external server anymore. Alternatively you can host your own grid async service on your own server. Note that our service will not use or save any personal data at any time. It only uses data to keep the function going.

Table already exists error when I want to activate Grid. Why?

This happens if grid was installed previously and could not be uninstalled correctly. You have to delete in the wp_options the option_name ?grid“. Then try again to active Grid plugin.

How do I use Grid landingpages?

Goto Settings->Grid and choose which post types should be able to use Grid. Than goto one of the activated post types and click on Switch into the Grid and on next screen save changes. Now you can drag and drop your landingpage.

How do I get new box types?

Have a look at www.remarpro.com for plugins that provide new grid boxes or you can create your own plugin and use the grid_load_classes action to add new box classes. You can find a documentation at doc.the-grid.ws

What about Grid an caching?

Grid works fine with a varnish configuration and the comet cache plugin. If you use another caching that does not work with grid please contact us on github.com or www.remarpro.com.

Tested a few grid plugins. This is nothing. Sorry!

Key Slug generate ERROR

alexandredrefahl August 22, 2017 3 replies

After last update (1.6.15), MYSQL had a problem with adding the new key slug. * grid style tables slug key added [informed in What’s new] When the plugin try to add this new key slug in table wp_grid_box_style, MYSQL informs duplicate key slug and the website does not load! I tried to add this key manualy by MySQL WorkBench and had the same error message. MySQL version: 5.5.51-38.2 PHP version: 5.4.45 I had to restore my old backup to have my site online again. Thank you and I hope this comment can help to solve this issue. Alexandre
