What it does
Sites with lots of content often struggle to present it in a way people can browse. A long blog archive, a portfolio or a product catalog becomes hard to search once it grows. This plugin gives you a query builder that pulls posts, taxonomy terms or users, then displays them in Masonry, Justified, Metro or carousel layouts. Each item is rendered as a card that you design yourself or adapt from more than 20 pre-made card templates, all through an admin interface that needs no coding.
Filtering is handled by facets, and there are more than 20 types, including checkboxes, radios, buttons, range sliders, ratings, dates and search. A custom indexing system feeds Ajax filtering, so results update on the page without a reload. It works with WooCommerce and Easy Digital Downloads for product grids, and with Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), Meta Box and Pods for custom field data. Facets can also filter third-party content on their own, and developers get hooks and APIs to build custom facet types.
Best for
- Online stores using WooCommerce or Easy Digital Downloads
- Portfolios and blogs with large content archives
- Developers building custom directories with custom fields
Features
Query builder
Select and display content from any post type, taxonomy terms or users, so each grid shows exactly the items you want to present.
Several layout styles
Arrange grids in Masonry, Justified or Metro layouts, or switch to a responsive carousel when you want content to slide horizontally.
Drag and drop card builder
Design how each grid item looks by dragging elements into place, or start from more than 20 included pre-made card templates and adjust them.
More than 20 facet types
Add filters such as checkboxes, radios, buttons, range sliders, ratings, dates and search so visitors can narrow down results in different ways.

Questions about WP Grid Builder
Can I filter WooCommerce products with this plugin?
Yes. It displays and filters products from WooCommerce and Easy Digital Downloads. You can combine product grids with facets such as checkboxes, range sliders, ratings and search, so shoppers can narrow your catalog by the criteria that matter to them.
Will it show my custom fields in the grid?
It works with Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), Meta Box and Pods, so values stored in those custom fields can appear directly inside your grid cards. This is handy for directories, listings or portfolios that rely on extra data beyond the title and content.
Do I need to know how to code to build grids?
No. Queries, layouts, cards and facets are all set up in the admin interface, and the card builder uses drag and drop. Developers who want more control can use the available hooks and APIs to customize facets, indexers and even build their own facet types.
Can I use the filters without using its grids?
Yes. Facets can be used independently to filter third-party content, so you do not have to use the grid and card features. This lets you add faceted filtering to content displayed by other parts of your site.
