Grid builder is a flexible content area that allows you to construct multiple sections and rows of blocks on the page with custom display and layout options. 

  1. Start by adding a row and choosing the number of columns you want in the row: one, two, three, or four columns.
  2. Next, assign a block or page to a column by dragging and dropping it in.
  3. Continue adding rows and/or sections of content to the page as needed.
  4. When applicable, modify the display and layout options through the section settings, row settings, and/or column settings.

Rows and sections can be reordered by dragging and dropping them from the top-left side toggle.
