<p>Code is adapted from the plugin ‘Columns’ by Konstantin Kovshenin.</p>
<p>Bootstrap is an HTML, CSS, and JS framework that is used to develop responsive, mobile websites. It employs a grid system that divides the viewport into twelve distinct columns. On desktops, the columns scale proportionally to the width of the viewing area while on mobile devices and tablets the columns stack on top of one another. This plugin takes advantage of that grid system to allow for WordPress content to be split up equally between the twelve columns.</p>
<p>To create a group of columns, use the <strong>[column-group]</strong> shortcode. To add columns to a group, use the <strong>[column]</strong> shortcode. For example:</p>
<pre><code>[column-group]
        [column]This is the first column[/column]
        [column]This is the second column[/column]
[/column-group]
</code></pre>
<p>The first column will occupy the first six columns of the Bootstrap grid while the second column will fill the remaining six.</p>
<h4>Spanning Columns</h4>
<p>The plugin’s columns can also be manually spanned across the Bootstrap grid. By adding the <em>span</em> attribute to the starting column shortcode, the number of Bootstrap columns that the WordPress columns take up can be assigned. For example:</p>
<pre><code>[column-group]
        [column span=“4”]This is the first column.[/column]
        [column span=“6”]This is the second column.[/column]
        [column span=“2”]This is the third column.[/column]
[/column-group]
</code></pre>
<p>The columns will take up four, six, and two of the Bootstrap columns respectively. Note: The span value is actually a ratio so if the total value of the spans in a column group does not equal twelve, then the plugin will assign the column sizes by means of percentage.</p>

Gridable

I really appreciate the minimal code it adds to the page. I usually write something similar to this for my client projects, but this is much nicer in several respects.

However:

	It's impossible to insert the cursor after a row if the row is the last thing in the content.
	You can't rearrange rows or cut and paste.
	The Add Row button does not work in the Text editor.
	Front-end JS file is mostly a giant comment. Minified version should be used, and possibly the dependency on jQuery removed for this tiny little function.


Nicely minimalistic, but buggy

It works and creates columns, however, it has too many bugs, in it disables other functionality in the custom editor and paste deletes the whole paragraph not just the highlighted word.

Good idea too many bugs

Gridable adds row and column layout controls to the WordPress Classic Editor.
