nebula grid layout

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

I have never understood the grid symantics for laying a four block grid and now I want to do it in nebula T3 theme.

The general template has 2 lists across for text in the slide2 position named "book us now" ( what is usually named a tab, but its a slide1 here) ... the html custom module says
{ grid6} { / grid6} { grid_ last} {/ grid_last} (minus the spaces of course)

But I want to make 4 grids across as oppossed to two. And I can't get it. It goes all wacky when I do grid 1, 2, 3, 4 in succession.
I just want to make 4 paragaphs across. How do I write the html code?

Does that make sense?

Yeah the link above, when I place the code exactly as the second slide position with {grid6 } 's I can fit the 2 paragraphs fine. But I want four paragraphs across and possibly 4 videos and I don't quite know how to do that.

it's a 12 column grid, so i think the divisions would be... grid3, grid3, grid3, grid3_last?

Thank you very much, that worked. So is it 12 columns divided by the number of grids you are wanting to put in there to determine what grid it is? Such as 12/4? to make {grid 3} I always thought the grid was a labeled position. such as grid 1, 2, 3, 4 . That is what the documentation looks like.

That was simple, I guess i just never understood it.

Thank you.

Yes this is the the case - you are using jb type syntax to divide up the available space between 12 columns

@Thanks Blueshift :)

You could also use bootstrap for this but I find this easier to remember :)

Same process I think but it needs a parent div from memory :)

Got to work through my backlog but quite possible it may make it
