This plugin is currently aimed at developers so it doesn’t come with any CSS or JavaScript, it just ads the DIVs for the columns, the rest is up to the developer’s imagination. This will allow developers to easily add column functionality to custom WordPress implementations.
<h3>Usage</h3>
How do users use it?
To split the content into columns, you simply add the shortcode [columnbreak] where you want the one column to end and the next one to start.
It will add a container around the columns with the class ‘ninja_columns’ and the class ‘colsid_{post-id}’ that will allow you to target the post or page specifically.

Adds shortcodes to easily create columns in your posts or pages.
Sometimes you just need to divide your page into different columns. With this plugin you just select a column shortcode and it will add the column to the page. You can also change the padding of each individual column from the UI.
There are 10 different column widths available from which you can make all combinations:
<ul>
<li>full width (1/1)</li>
<li>half (1/2)</li>
<li>one third (1/3)</li>
<li>two third (2/3)</li>
<li>one fourth (1/4)</li>
<li>three fourth (3/4)</li>
<li>one fifth (1/5)</li>
<li>two fifth (2/5)</li>
<li>three fifth (3/5)</li>
<li>four fifth (4/5)</li>
<li>one sixth (1/6)</li>
<li>five sixth (5/6)</li>
</ul>
A preset stylesheet is included, which you can also overwrite to you liking in your theme’s stylesheet.
