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.

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.

When viewing the front end of the site, a “Responsive” button is added to the WordPress Toolbar. Clicking that will toggle an overlay with your website presented in various sizes for easy responsive design testing.
This can be useful both during theme development, and when writing content to verify it will be presented properly.
