Hi Elliot,

I want to know if is virtually possible, with a new custom field (via plugin), to create a grid layout (example with two columns) and drag and drop flexible content between them. See the graphic in attachment. I think is missing feature in your powerful plugin. It have a lot of page builder (theme or plugin) some work great but is very complicated to add custom block, not work in multilingual (wpml)…

Continue your great work.

Have a nice day.

Patrick

Hi @pboisclair

Currently, the flexible content field does not offer this column layout.
Perhaps you could play around with some CSS / JS to set a width of 50% and float left/right on the layout div? This would allow you to sit 2 layouts next to each other, but I’m not sure if the ordering would work as expected.

Thanks

Hi there,

I was also thinking of doing something like this.. i think it would help the users understand what they are editing if it visually aligns to the two columns. But what if there are more than two columns?

~ I think it’d get crazy.

Probably just best to keep it tidy and consistant in the back end. Plus, no additional hackery is always good.
