<p>Want to create a column-based layout with easily customizable column-width and positions? Or perhaps you want to align your content to a global layout grid across your post. With this Layout Grid block you can do both or either. There are also options to provide specific layouts to mobile or tablet breakpoints. Pick a number of columns (1-4), then go ahead and resize and position each column as you want them to look, for any screen. Optionally apply background colours and paddings to add emphasis.</p>

Layout Grid Block

Started using this block layout on a WordPress.com site as it was just there by default, then when I realised it wasn't available on my WordPress sites, I had to go get it. Very handy layout...

Very handy layout

Already working really well. It's clean and solid and intuitive. I'm working with it with the Kadence theme and it's excellent. Hope to see this in Gutenberg core soon!

Works really well


The is a more flexible replacement for the standard columns block. If you've ever battled with the standard columns to make multi-column components that adapted at mobile, tablet and desktop then I would definitely recommend this block.

Great block that allows placing and resizing blocks in a more flexible way than the regular columns block. I hope it is continually supported.


Great block!

A Gutenberg container block to let you align items consistently across a global grid.

Advanced Bootstrap Blocks

... and that's not saying much because the others were broken or terrible. Even still, this one is on the right track, and I'm happy to see that at least somebody is getting it right. Thanks for your hard work!

So far the best bootstrap block plugin

This is really well done, it does lack some features to become perfect, and has some issues with the editor (columns chaos if multiple classes are set) but it works perfectly. By far the fastest way to get Bootstrap into Gutenberg : THUMBS UP

Very usable !

Build responsive Bootstrap 4 layouts inside the Gutenberg editor.
