Gridpress – Grid Layout Design

Description

Gridpress is a flexible and powerful WordPress grid plugin that lets you display any WordPress post type — posts, pages, products, portfolios, team members, testimonials, and more — in beautiful, responsive grid layouts. Choose from 30 unique card styles, configure everything through a clean admin interface, and embed your grid anywhere with a simple shortcode.

Whether you’re building a blog, a WooCommerce store, a portfolio site, or a company website, Gridpress gives you the tools to present your content in a visually compelling, mobile-friendly grid layout — without writing a single line of code.

🎨 30 Pre-Built Grid Styles

Gridpress ships with 30 ready-to-use grid card designs covering a wide variety of use cases:
* Blog / Magazine styles – with post date, author, comments count, categories & tags
* Portfolio / Gallery styles – clean image-focused layouts with hover effects
* Video gallery styles – dedicated video card designs with views & likes counters
* Product-ready styles – layouts optimized for WooCommerce and eCommerce
* Creative / branding styles – multi-image cards, background color cards, Behance-linked cards and more

📦 Dual Data Source Support

• Posts Data – Pull content automatically from any registered WordPress post type. Filter by taxonomy terms, set order, sort direction, and number of posts per grid.
• Manual Data – Build grids with hand-crafted items. Add custom titles, images, URLs, video files or YouTube/Vimeo links, dates, authors, categories, excerpts, views, likes, and more — entirely independent of your site’s posts.

🔧 Full Grid Configuration

Each grid is configured through a tabbed settings panel:
* General Settings: Select one of 30 card styles
* Data Source: Posts data vs. manual items; post type, taxonomy filters, order, pagination
* Layout: Simple or Masonry grid; number of columns (2/3/4/6); hover effects
* Display Settings: Show/hide excerpt, button, date, author, comments, categories/tags; top taxonomy filters
* Typography: Custom font size, line height, font style, font weight and color for text elements
