Plugin Description

MM Post Grid displays your posts, pages or any custom post type in a responsive card grid. Add one shortcode and you get a grid that already looks finished, with sensible spacing, readable typography and a hover state that does not shout.

It is built to be a good neighbour. The grid inherits your theme typeface instead of forcing its own, every class name is prefixed, no global element is styled, and there is not a single !important in the stylesheet. Nothing is loaded on pages that do not contain a grid.

What makes it different

• Genuinely lightweight. One small stylesheet and, only when you use Load More, one small script. No jQuery on the front end, no CSS framework, no icon font, no external requests.
• Loads nothing where there is no grid. Assets are registered up front and enqueued only when a grid actually renders.
• Theme friendly. Font family is never set, so the grid picks up your theme typeface and only controls size and rhythm. All selectors are scoped to the .mmpg wrapper.
• Accessible by default. Real heading levels you choose, no duplicate links per card, unique accessible names on every Read more link, visible focus rings, a live region for Load More, and full support for prefers-reduced-motion.
• Customisable without CSS. Over 35 styling settings drive CSS custom properties: card layout, hover and image effects, spacing, typography, line clamping, category badges, button styles and pagination alignment. Only the values you actually change are printed, so a default site sends no extra CSS at all.
• Seven styling templates. Default, Minimal, Soft, Outline, Dark, Magazine and List. Apply one as a starting point, then fine-tune anything on the Styling tab.
• Three card layouts. Image above the text, image beside the text, or text laid over the image. The side-by-side layout only engages when a card is wide enough, so it never gets squeezed.
• Per grid overrides. Any setting can be overridden on a single grid through a shortcode attribute.
• Works without JavaScript. The Load More control is a real link to the next page, so it degrades to normal pagination.
• Developer friendly. Namespaced classes, a documented filter on every piece of markup, and no third party dependencies.

Usage

[mm_post_grid]

That uses your saved settings. Add attributes to override them for one grid:

[mm_post_grid columns="4" posts_per_page="8" pagination="load_more"]

Shortcode Attributes

Every attribute is optional. Anything you leave out falls back to your saved setting.

Query

• post_type – One or more post types, comma separated. Default: your setting.
• posts_per_page – Number of posts per page, 1 to 48.
• orderby – date, modified, title, menu_order, comment_count, rand or ID.
• order – ASC or DESC.
• category – Category slugs or IDs, comma separated.
• categories – Alias of category.
• tag – Tag slugs or IDs, comma separated.
• taxonomy – A taxonomy name, used together with terms.
• terms – Term slugs or IDs for the taxonomy above.
• author – Author IDs, comma separated.
• exclude – Post IDs to leave out.
• offset – Skip this many posts.
• ignore_sticky – yes (default) treats sticky posts like any other post; no pushes them to the front.

Layout

• columns – Desktop columns, 1 to 6.
• columns_tablet – Columns below 1024px, 1 to 6.
• columns_mobile – Columns below 640px, 1 to 6.
• gap – Space between cards in pixels, 0 to 80.
• image_size – Any registered image size.
• image_ratio – 16-9, 16-10, 3-2, 4-3, 1-1, 3-4 or auto.
• pagination – none, numbers, prev_next or load_more.

Content

• show_image – yes or no.
• show_title – yes or no.
• show_date – yes or no.
• show_author – yes or no.
• show_category – yes or no.
• show_excerpt – yes or no.
• show_read_more – yes or no.
• image_fallback – yes or no, show a placeholder when a post has no featured image.
• title_tag – h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p or div. Pick the level that fits the page outline.
• excerpt_length – Words, 0 for the untrimmed excerpt.
• read_more_text – Link label.
• button_style – link, button or outline.

Style

These switch a class on the grid, so one grid can look different from the site-wide styling. Colours and sizes stay site-wide on the Styling tab.

• card_layout – stacked (image above the text), horizontal (image beside the text once the card is wider than 460px) or overlay (text over the image).
• hover_effect – lift, shadow, border or none.
• image_hover – zoom, none or grayscale.
• text_align – left or center.
• term_style – text or badge.
• button_size – small, medium or large.
• pagination_align – left, center or right.
• title_lines – Clamp titles to this many lines, 0 to 5. 0 shows the full title.
• excerpt_lines – Clamp excerpts to this many lines, 0 to 8.

Wrapper

• class – Extra class names on the wrapper.
• id – A specific HTML id, useful for anchor links.
