AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
CSS Columns is a newly-listed WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Post category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. no published reviews yet means feature claims are unverified by the wider merchant base. Without a published review base, the only fit-signal available is the developer's own documentation plus the marketplace's listing-quality audit (linked below). Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +Published by redwerks — established developer track record

How CSS Columns works
This plugin provides a [columns] shortcode that gives a section of post content multiple columns using css3’s column properties.
The [columns] shortcode requires a closing [/columns] shortcode and accepts the arguments count=”#” to specify the number of columns and gap=”1em” to specify the gap size between columns.
Some examples:
A simple 2 column block of columns.
[columns count=”2″]…[/columns]
A 3 column block of columns with a 2em gap in between columns.
[columns count=”3″ gap=”2em”]…[/columns]
