This is great. Thanks again for a great video Jamie 😎. Static CSS grid builder has been around for free from jet for a few years now, and dynamic in query loop for a while now in premium like Greenshift and others, but having this as a native G is a gamechanger: seamless integration, clear and organized UI, zero bloat. Dealing with ever overcomplicating block addons or "builder" plugins, that eventually break along the way and leaves one in tricky situations with customers makes me value standard G+WP more and more and you are the champion in showing how great it is and how much one can do with stock WP rather than going the bloat way. Thank you for that and please keep up with this excellent work. Kudos !! 👍👍
This makes my day! Thanks, Jamie. Disappointed it won't be in 6.5 but at least we can play with an early version now. I have played with Grid in the CSS and found it somewhat rough going.
Looks like a good 20/80 implementation of the CSS Grid spec and that will make things a lot easier for a lot of people. Columns block will be used a lot less. I haven't looked at Justin's theme yet, but is looks more like a collection of useful patterns. And the question that came up in my mind is, if there already is a good way to transfer patterns from one theme to another? Other than copying manually? Because basically I'd like to use these patterns in TT4.
In a recent livestream, Kevin Geary said he might be planning his own April Fools Day gag. Admittedly, he says he's not very practiced at the art so he may forego it altogether. But you, Jaimie, are the reigning KING ... don't let us down this year, LOL
Well done Jamie. Your videos are always informative and entertaining. Keep up the good work. How do I get the plugin? When I enter /grid I get 'Layout Grid'
It's ok for some static content, but useless for outputting cpt/taxonomy/repeater loops (similar to Crocoblock JetEngine listings). If this feature comes to Gutenberg, lots of builders will suddenly reach end of lie, but I highly doubt we'll get so much love. One thing I would like to see though, is a feature that enables developers to write their own css directly in the Gutenberg blocks and avoid the limited frontend controls most of them offer. ☺️
All the patterns under Dev Hours Web Layouts theme are locked when you go under Design. Is there anyway around it ? I want to copy some of the wireframes. Thanks, Jamie
The "Gutenberg"-plugin causes a lot of confusion amongst beginners. I have even had readers asking whether they need the Gutenberg-plugin to use Gutenberg as without the plugin they don't even see the word "Gutenberg" in the backend 😂 It's a good idea to test new features in a plugin, but a simple renaming might help to avoid the confusion: "Gutenberg DEVELOPMENT"-plugin would probably be more appropriate.
@@jamiewp Yes, I read it back then, and I agree with the analysis of the confusion its causing, but I would not want to retire it. I do think that the plugin has a valuable place in the development flow. It just needs a new name that communicates its purpose more clearly. »Gutenberg Development« or »Gutenberg Experiments« or »Gutenberg Testing« or something like that. Or »Plugin for testing Gutenberg Development and Experiments« 😂
I like the idea of CSS Grid builder, but I wonder who it would appeal to? As a developer I'd prefer to get down and dirty in the code, unless I just want to do something quick and dirty. I keep using the word dirty 🤪🤪
Great question 👍 There's a few advantages 👇 Mobile Optimization: Ensures minimum width settings are respected, making layouts more consistent across devices. Cleaner Markup: Simplifies HTML structure, reducing complexity and improving readability. Ease of Maintenance: Layout changes can be made with CSS alone, without altering HTML, simplifying updates. Complex Layouts: Enables more complex designs with features like item spanning and precise placement.

Hooray! I knew I'd see table layouts come back if I lived long enough.
bwahahhahah.
Top notch as usual, Jamie. Well done. Very nice addition to core blocks. Hats off to the G team.
👍 thank you
One of the best, if not THE best, Wordpress RUclipsr. Well done Jamie, really enjoy your videos.
Thank you 🙏
This is great. Thanks again for a great video Jamie 😎.

Thank you , those are lovely words 🤩
Thanks Jamie. This is currently my favourite channel! 👍🏻😎
Thank you Jon - that’s lovely to hear 🙏
I love the Gutenberg plugin, always new stuff to play with. Had no idea you could make blocks span across rows like that. Thanks for sharing.
👍
CSS Grid can speed up the building process when it comes. Jamie, thank you for showing its nice features.
No problem 👍
Leave it to Justin to give us a new theme in time for one of the coolest features. Love everything about this video!
Yup Justin is doing amazing work 🚀
This makes my day! Thanks, Jamie. Disappointed it won't be in 6.5 but at least we can play with an early version now. I have played with Grid in the CSS and found it somewhat rough going.
Let me know what you think about the new grid block
Thanks Jamie. You're always my "go to guy for Gutenberg" !
thank you 🙏

Great points Peter 👍 I’ve considered building a pattern cloud plugin for your second point, because i agree with you .
Another vote for this!@@jamiewp
Love this Jamie, this is a wonderful update.
Thanks so much!
That is so great. I haven't been using the Gutenberg plug in for a bit, looks li,e I need TO start again. Thanks ja,ie as always.
Cheers Tim 👍🙏
Thanks Jamie! Outstanding information! Outstanding plugin!!
Cheers Brent 🙏
Your channel thumbnail designs are very nice, do you design it yourself or someone else?
That is so … wow! 🤯
Also great presentation, as usual. 👏🏼
Your cat must be heavy overweight from all the like buttons I already clicked?
Thank you (from me and the cats)

hehe I'm struggling this year - i had some great ideas planned but they've been overtaken by real life events in certain WordPress plugins 😬
Well done Jamie. Your videos are always informative and entertaining. Keep up the good work.
How do I get the plugin? When I enter /grid I get 'Layout Grid'
Great video and thanks for the instawp link - I'll be stealing a few ideas from Justin's theme patterns. This definitely should be in 6.6!
Agreed 🚀

The Query loop block is based on CSS grid so this is possible with a little dev 👍
This is absolutely brilliant !! 👏👏👏
Thank you 🙏

Hi Ben - i think maybe just put them in a page and copy from there 👍 lemme know of that works for you
@@jamiewp Many thanks for this idea, Jamie. That worked. Put it on a local site also created a pattern in My Patterns.
Great new feature! Can't wait until it's part of WP itself.
Yup me too Harry
Amazing. Looking forward to it coming to core soon.
Thanks Helena 👍
Truly good content; thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is also AWESOME. So many good videos on this channel. 😺
Cheers Carl 🙏
As usual, amazing video.
🙏
Thanks Jamie. Where can I find Justin Tadlocks theme base on CSS Grids?
This needs to get here now!
Agreed 👍
is there a way to combine query loop with this grid to make easy bento layouts? if possible please make a tutorial on this
Well done, as always!👍👍👍
Thanks Eddy
Hey... are you using a plugin? or is it Block Editor default? I can't figure out it?
Atm you’ll need the free Gutenberg plugin installed to use the grid block
@@jamiewp Thank you Jamie, you are always awesome!
Thanks for the heads up! Functionally, what's the difference between an item being in core vs being in Gutenberg?
Gutenberg generally the functionality first, it's a like a proving ground. Once it's proved in Gutenberg then it should move into core a little later.
The "Gutenberg"-plugin causes a lot of confusion amongst beginners. I have even had readers asking whether they need the Gutenberg-plugin to use Gutenberg as without the plugin they don't even see the word "Gutenberg" in the backend 😂
It's a good idea to test new features in a plugin, but a simple renaming might help to avoid the confusion: "Gutenberg DEVELOPMENT"-plugin would probably be more appropriate.
@@pmmueller agreed - i wrote a blog post about this a while back www.pootlepress.com/2023/05/its-time-to-get-rid-of-the-wordpress-gutenberg-plugin/

@@pmmueller 👍 interestingly it's installed by default on WordPress.com sites
How will the release of this kind of feature impact sites created today in block themes?
Excellent review. Thx Jamie
Cheers Mel
Amazing work Jamie, I really enjoying your videos.
Thank you sooo much 🙏
nice feature. seems the mouse snapping missing at the moment but i am sure the devs will implement this in the final release.
👍
Did you turn on in Experiments (i show this in the video)
no just by watching your video it seems the drag mode does not to snap inside a grid cell to the nearest border@@jamiewp
If I have a website template in html how I can clone same in WordPress without using elementor builder,is it possible with default builder
It depends on the design
I like the idea of CSS Grid builder, but I wonder who it would appeal to? As a developer I'd prefer to get down and dirty in the code, unless I just want to do something quick and dirty. I keep using the word dirty 🤪🤪
When is the Cover Block updating to include the Aspect Ratio Setting ?
26th March, when WordPress 6.5 is released 🚀
Me encantó justo lo que estaba buscando
why dont i have this grib block in mine. My wp is up to date.
Cool feature !!! :D
👍
How is this different from simply using columns?
Great question 👍 There's a few advantages 👇
Mobile Optimization: Ensures minimum width settings are respected, making layouts more consistent across devices.
Cleaner Markup: Simplifies HTML structure, reducing complexity and improving readability.
Ease of Maintenance: Layout changes can be made with CSS alone, without altering HTML, simplifying updates.
Complex Layouts: Enables more complex designs with features like item spanning and precise placement.
I don't have this Gutenberg menu... how to get that anyone ?
Yep ... like this !
thanks
thaNK you from manhattan ©2024
Thanks Victoria 👋
Very interesting trips
They are!
I hope this make s core soonish.
me too!
Jamie you rock
Thanks George 🙏❤
Thumbs uped! :)
Thank you 🙏
There are about to be Bento grids all over WordPress sites now lol
🤩
My first thought was that will let me create some easy bento boxes.
Here is my comment
Here is my socially interactive reply
And here’s mine 😬
@@jamiewp nice 😊 lets boost this channel 🚀
not working actually lol
0:10 0:10 0:10 ! Nzznn mmmmmmm
This looks cool. Too bad you need hours of training to use it unless you're already a pro. The UI is horrible if you are new to WP.
Thanks - it's pretty easy to get started (took me about 10 minutes)
We have this in wp 6.43
I think you must have the Gutenberg Plugin installed on that site.
Not every week, not every day .. but EVERY HOUR there is something new with and for WP. .. ... soon it will hid da wall ?
👍
