Hello, I an a novice compared to other designers but I am trying to learn. I really like this script and have downloaded it. I used the template to create my own working layout but when I try to implement it into my design it stalls. I believe that there might be a conflict with the version of bootstrap that I am using or that I have a javascript conflict. I have commented out all other javascript files to see if that will remedy the problem with no success. Which leaves me to believe that it has to do with the core bootstrap.css version that I am working with. I am using a free template to learn on and it uses bootstrap v2.1.1 and this script uses v3.1.1. Am I on the right path in trying to troubleshoot my problem?

Michelle Ricketts () - 7 years ago - Reply 0


I did figure out what my problem was. It was a javascript conflict. This script does work in BS2 but as previously mentioned, the columns overlap in my container. Now I just need to figure out how to resize the columns to fit my space. I believe this is a javascript issue in the pinterest_grid.js file. I'm not sure I can fix it with css. Any suggestions?

Hi Guys,
I want to break the grid on i-pad in two columns and on i-phone in one column. Does anyone have an idea how it is possible?

yogesh () - 8 years ago - Reply 0


Add:
double_column_breakpoint: 640,

//Make two cols
Plugin.prototype.calculate_two_cols = function (double_column_mode) {
var self = this,
tallest = 0,
row = 0,
$container = $(this.element),
container_width = $container.width();
$article = $(this.element).children();

if(double_column_mode === true) {
article_width = $container.width() - self.options.padding_x;
} else {
article_width = ($container.width() - self.options.padding_x * self.options.double_columns) / self.options.double_columns;
}

$article.each(function() {
$(this).css('width', article_width);
});

columns = self.options.double_columns;

$article.each(function(index) {
var current_column,
left_out = 0,
top = 0,
$this = $(this),
prevAll = $this.prevAll(),
tallest = 0;

if(double_column_mode === false) {
current_column = (index % columns);
} else {
current_column = 0;
}

for(var t = 0; t < columns; t++) {
$this.removeClass('c'+t);
}

if(index % columns === 0) {
row++;
}

$this.addClass('c' + current_column);
$this.addClass('r' + row);

prevAll.each(function(index) {
if($(this).hasClass('c' + current_column)) {
top += $(this).outerHeight() + self.options.padding_y;
}
});

if(double_column_mode === true) {
left_out = 0;
} else {
left_out = (index % columns) * (article_width + self.options.padding_x);
}

$this.css({
'left': left_out,
'top' : top
});
});

this.tallest($container);
$(window).resize();
};

//Replace make_layout_change function

Plugin.prototype.make_layout_change = function (_self) {

if($(window).width() > _self.options.single_column_breakpoint && $(window).width() < _self.options.double_column_breakpoint) {
_self.calculate_two_cols(false);
} else if($(window).width() > _self.options.single_column_breakpoint) {

_self.calculate(false);
} else {
_self.calculate_two_cols(true);
}

};

This solution doesn't work for me. Grid goes crazy at the .double_column_breakpoint...

Abdullah T. Aqrabawi () - 8 years ago - Reply 0


If i resize browser down to min, the margin/padding is off. Left has 0 and right looks like about 15px.

Hi guys, I really liked this plugin and I think that I fixed it. The problem was in the "for" loop. On line 108 just changed $this.removeClass('c'+t); to $this.removeClass('c'); . It works fine for me with no errors.

True, maybe @mrmccormack would be able to take a look and fix the CPU overload :)

maxsurguy () - 8 years ago - Reply 0


Be careful! This plugin is too much load cpu.

Кирилл () - 8 years ago - Reply 0


Could you elaborate on how one could reduce the load? Really great work.

Gottlieb () - 8 years ago - Reply 0


get rid of hover and shadows effects the boxes those are the biggest CPU and GPU hogs, performance has increased 45%

Any ideas why this is not laying out correctly in Bootstrap 2.3.2? It seems that the image widths are not calculating properly. I realize that you did this for BS 3, but I have had great success working with V3 code in V2 with a little tweeking.
