we need WP Columns with WordPress 3.5.1
Please update new version
Hi
I’ve just installed the WP columns plugin.
I have added the CSS to the stylesheet of my theme which is a child of twentytwelve. It does not work at all.
I inspected the element with firebug : the tags and class are there but the styles are not present in the CSS. Strange!
Any idea how to fix it ?
Thanks!

Using the Weaver II template with Wheat sub-template. After activating this plug-in, I see the config listed in he dash board and can go to it. However, when I enter text with the “More” breaks, viewing the page takes a long time and has all the text in a single column. And then WP Columns has disappeared from the dashboard.
]]>I’ve been trying to find a solution to display a second set of columns on the same page.
Example: I have a top article, in columns that work fine with the plugin. But when I try to create the bottom article (a columned article just below the top one) the WP Column tags simply remove all columns on that page.
So, how can I have multiple columned items on the same page?
Thanks for that plugin by the way!
]]>When I first installed this plugin, using the column tag did not affect my page content at all. (I want to have it in two columns)
After seeing another post on here, I added this to my theme stylesheet:
/* @group Columns */
.wpcolumn-clearfix {
clear: both;
}
.wpcolumn-wrapper-2 .wpcolumn {
width: 47.5%;
}
.wpcolumn-wrapper-3 .wpcolumn {
width: 30%;
}
.wpcolumn-wrapper-4 .wpcolumn {
width: 21.8%;
}
.wpcolumn {
float: left;
margin: 0 2% 0 0;
padding-right: 2%;
}
.wpcolumn-last {
margin-right: 0!important;
padding-right: 0!important;
margin-left: 480px;
border: none;
}
/* @end */
The second column now starts halfway across the page but is still located below the content for the left column (you have to scroll down to see it). Obviously I want them to be next to each other, not one after the other.
I am not very experienced with all this, so if anyone could help, that would be great!
I’m just trying to find a columns plugin – I had been using Magazine Columns but it does not work with WP 3.3.1.
I’m using it here… https://www.ratest5.com/2012/01/school-based-display/
]]>Hi
This works really well thank you.
However I have had to hack the code a little to add the opening p tag for the first paragraph in each column.
If it was possible to correct this then this would be a perfect little plugin.
]]>The plugin does NOT come with pre-defined CSS styles.
Frankly I find this a problem, and a bit of a waste of time. One has to figure out the way the wrappers work, whereas a few simple sets of CSS styles would simplify the whole customization process for everyone.
I strongly recommend the developer to include CSS styles in the next version, so that the plugin can work out-of-the-box for the less experienced users.
For the rest it works pretty good! And it doesn’t break shortcode tags in posts like “magazine columns” does.
]]>css missing. Instead used css example from plugin website for testing. Tried 2 WP versions, 2 WP themes: not working
]]>Tried several times to get this to work, and couldn’t see any changes other than it broke my theme in Archive view.
Examining the generated code, I saw several inserted DIV’s, and oddly, lots of blank CODE groups. Didn’t see where the CSS was included, which might be the problem.
Love the idea of the simple shortcode. Unfortunately I couldn’t get it to work.
p.s. Seemed odd that the plugin’s settings panel wasn’t under the Settings menu.
]]>it does not make columns.. the best i can get is a two column when i am calling for a 3 column and the css does not get called as i had to insert your custom css into my css file to even see results which were horrible..
great idea but it doesnt work.. wish it did!!
]]>I just tried to get some columns on a clean WP 3.1 install on the Twenty Ten theme and it didn’t work. Also added the CSS code you posted but that is not helping either.
Any suggestions how we can fix this?
]]>can you connect it with different layouts ?
theme default I have full window wight and left and right side column
I want to divide the center column in sub-columns with your plugin
A | B | C – in ceter column by resolution 1920x…
A | B – 1400x…
C
A – 1024x…
B
C
can it be done ?
]]>I have just downloaded WP columns. I am confused what to do next. Do I copy the short code and paste it into the HTML version of my web page? I am not a techie and what may be obvious to most, is lost on me.
Thanks
This seems to be some sort of conflict with the TinyMCE editor. Any entry with columns that starts with a paragraph (as opposed to a header or some other tag), ends up with a missing opening <p> tag at the beginning of any column (meaning it doesn’t get recognized and formatted the way it should).
<div class="column column-1 column-first">Paragraph 1</p>
<p>Paragraph 2</p></div>
<div class="column column-2 column-last">Paragraph 3</p>
<p>Paragraph 4</p></div>
<div class="column-clearfix"></div>Anyone else have this problem?
* UPDATE: I was able to fix the problem with a little hack. By adding an opening <p> tag to the inserted column code on line 48 (v1.0), it seems to correctly append it for paragraphs but will not insert it if the first element is a non <p> tag. Again, I’m guessing this has more to do with how WP detects where to place <p> tags, so I’m not sure if there’s a less ‘hacky’ fix or not.
$content .= "<div class=\"{$class} {$class}-$columnindex{$columnClass}\"><p>";
Plugin activates fine, but a page I created with 3 columns using the default separator did not display the columns. Content inside each column was a widget, FYI.
