Let's start with the WHEN part ...

I'm pretty sure that you have seen many websites where the posts are displayed in a nice, eye-catchy grid layout ...

And there are many cool themes out there designed for magazine, photography, news, etc websites that can and will use grid based layouts by default.

Now, the thing is that the traditional vertical layout of displaying posts works well for most websites.

However, this type of layout has a quite big disadvantage ... It will take up a lot of space, specially when you want to display a large number of posts on your blogroll or some recent posts on your custom homepage.

The point: there are many possible scenarios where you it could be a good idea to display your posts in a beautiful grid layout. It will save space, allowing you to add other items and enhancements to your page and it also looks more visually pleasant ...

The problem?

Most of Wordpress themes do not come with a grid layout display feature for your posts ...

In which case you'll have to create your own theme template files for that ... And of course, that would require a strong HTML, PHP, CSS, etc knowledge ...

But, there is always another way :)

So, I've decided to create this short tutorial where I will show you how easy is to display your Wordpress posts in a nice grid layout on any theme ... without having to write a single line of code ...

Interested?

Let's do this!

I use a static home page and a short code that produces a blog roll on it, but I like the looks of this grid much better. I'm going to swap to this grid plugin and see how it works--thank you so much!
