When I divide a row into two or three columns and place a block 16 or block 4 in each one (because I want to control the filters separately) (https://www.dropbox.com/s/yolo0ulni583mv2/Screenshot%202017-03-15%2013.19.53.png?dl=0), the blocks stop behaving consistently. Either they don’t look the same at all (text in different place in relationship to the photo, not displaying excerpt etc) or the thumbnails are not the same size.
I’m not sure why this is happening, since at least block 16 can clearly can fit three across and 4 can fit at least two.
Hello,
I have tested a block 16 on a 3 column layout as you describe and it works properly as expected: https://www.screencast.com/t/c3mVViwVU
Please provide a link to your site pointing at a page that has the problem you describe so we can investigate.
Thank you!
Our site isn’t live and is pw protected. Is there a secure way for me to send you login info so you can see what’s going on?
But also the link that you show has the text to the right of the image, no byline, no excerpt. That’s not what my understanding of how it’s supposed to look is. (Not what the layout description shows here https://www.dropbox.com/s/v8b9zsn2t869jny/Screenshot%202017-03-20%2017.49.23.png?dl=0)
This is how it works when it has one block with three entires following the same filter–it follows the preview image in VC and behaves as expected:

That’s what I want.
But as soon as I divide the row into three columns with their own blocks so I can control the filters separately it changes to this:

Totally different look in the exact same space with the same block.
Hi,
You can see how block 16 for example looks in different layout settings here in the demo – https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-16/ This block is using these modules – https://www.screencast.com/t/HH1Pm04bmy Please note that not all modules have the same design and structure – https://www.screencast.com/t/HH1Pm04bmy has this structure – https://www.screencast.com/t/qvRP364uu and in this case – https://www.screencast.com/t/7UWcYu9C has this structure – https://www.screencast.com/t/cTvwweIMU
Maybe you could have a layout like this – https://www.screencast.com/t/ITpJTMGSvx and use each of the block settings to limit the posts number, filter, sort or offset the posts displayed in the respective blocks.
Thanks
I’ve tried your suggestion, but then they stack on top of each other rather than being next to each other horizontally. I want it to look like the “Block 16 in 2 columns” as shown in the demo, while still controlling the filter for each separately.
Hi,
That is not possible unfortunately. Placing that block on a 1/3 layout changes the module used. Block 16 will display like this

In a 2/3 or full row it will display like this

I am sure that you can find a different block and layout combination to create your page. There are 25 predefined blocks that you can try in different row settings.
Block 12 looks somewhat similar on one column for example

Thanks
