Block layout settings

How many columns one block spans inside a grid section.

Last updated About 7 hours ago

Block layout settings appear on blocks inside grid-mode sections — Multicolumn, Collage, Image with text, and similar. They control how wide a single block sits in the row.

Make a block span more columns

  1. Open the section (Multicolumn is the most common).
  2. Confirm Desktop layout is Grid.
  3. Select the block.
  4. Under Block layout settings, raise Desktop column count (1–8 depending on section).

A value of 2 spans two columns; the rest of the row reflows around it.

Set mobile width

Mobile column count1 or 2. Only applies when Mobile layout is Grid.

One column is safer for text-heavy blocks; two works for small image tiles.

When you will not see these settings

Block layout options hide when the section uses a Slideshow layout on that breakpoint — the section scrolls as a carousel instead of a grid.

Other settings

Section-level column counts are in Layout settings. Image framing within blocks uses Aspect ratio settings.
