Rebecca365 Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Every template I look at has a single column going down the middle. I would like two columns of text. I appreciate any help you can offer. Link to comment
creedon Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Add the following to Blog Settings > Advanced > Page Header Code Injection for the blog page. Please see per-page code injection. <style> .blog-single-column .blog-single-column--wrapper { display : grid; gap : 30px; grid-template-columns : 1fr 1fr; } </style> Let us know how it goes.

Rebecca365 Posted December 5, 2022 Author Share Posted December 5, 2022 This did not give me two columns. I added your code using "Post Blog Item Code Injection" but it does not give me two columns. Link to comment
creedon Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Quote Post Blog Item Code Injection That location is for individual blog posts and is different form where I instructed the code be installed. My code is for altering the blog post listing page from one column to two columns. Is your Layout set to Single Column? Find my contributions useful?

Rebecca365 Posted December 6, 2022 Author Share Posted December 6, 2022 I have the blog listing page set for side-by-side blogs, but I will change it if you tell me to. I may not have been clear; my wish is to have each individual blog entry have two columns of text. Or better, two columns of text and then a full-width block (the width of the two above) beneath it. But I'll take what is possible. I'm new to Squarespace, I appreciate you taking the time to help me. Link to comment
Solution creedon Posted December 6, 2022 Solution Share Posted December 6, 2022 Quote I have the blog listing page set for side-by-side blogs, but I will change it if you tell me to. No no. Only do it if you want your blog listing page to have two columns. And, of course if you don't want two columns on the blog listing page the don't use the code provided. To have two columns in a blog post you can do that by putting two text blocks side by side. Being new to editing on SS you might find it a bit tricky. SS likes to combine text blocks that are vertically aligned into one. If you find yourself having trouble reaching the above layout, use a text block, line block, text block. Then align your text blocks side by side and remove the line block. The line block keeps the SS combining feature from happening. Let us know how it goes. Rebecca365 1 Find my contributions useful?
