Card Grid

Reuses the card template your theme already ships. Point it at a query and it renders through your own template part, so the grid matches every other listing on the site.

OVERVIEW

One card, everywhere.

Reuses the card template your theme already ships. Point it at a query and it renders through your own template part, so the grid matches every other listing on the site.

Query blocks ship their own card markup, which is why a block-built grid never quite matches the archive page sitting next to it.

This one renders nothing itself. You name a template part, it runs the query, and the output is indistinguishable from the rest of the site because it is the rest of the site.

It uses my template part. That is all I ever wanted.

WHAT YOU GET

A query block that renders nothing.

Your template part

Name a template part in the block and it renders through that. The plugin contributes no markup.

Full query control

Post type, taxonomy, meta, ordering and count, all exposed in the editor without writing a query.

Accurate preview

The editor preview renders through the same template part, so what you see is what publishes.

Cached per query

Results are cached against a hash of the query arguments and cleared when matching content changes.

FULL FEATURE LIST

What the block exposes.

Query controls in the editor, markup left entirely to the theme.

  • Renders through a named template part
  • Post type and taxonomy selection
  • Meta key filtering
  • Editor preview matches the front end
  • Per-query result cache
  • Optional pagination
  • Manual post selection mode
  • Empty state slot
