How to add post grids to any WordPress page with Nimble Builder ?
Nimble Builder for WordPress includes an awesome Post Grid module. The quick video below illustrates how to insert and customize a grid of post in any page of your WordPress site. With Nimble Builder Pro, there are more options, like masonry grids.
Here’s also a live demo including a few examples of post lists that you can achieve with it. I recommend to also visit this demo with your mobile phone to see how it nicely adapts.
The design is optimized for mobile devices. If you plan to include many post grids, it won’t impact the speed of your site when the option “ Load images on scroll” is enabled in your global options.
1 - Open the customizer interface
On front you can click on the Nimble Builder icon in the admin bar.
2 - Drag and drop the post grid module
3 - Customize
You can embed an unlimited number of post grids in any page of your site. The module offers 2 layouts for your posts : list or grid, and many customization options for almost any element of the grid.
Here’s an overview of the main features included :
