Overview

About this plugin

Query Loop Masonry Lite transforms your WordPress Query Loop blocks into stunning masonry and Pinterest-style layouts. Built specifically for the WordPress block editor, this plugin works seamlessly with core blocks – no proprietary markup, no vendor lock-in.

What is Masonry Layout?

Masonry layout arranges items in a grid where each item flows into the next available space, like bricks in a wall. Unlike traditional grids with fixed row heights, masonry creates dynamic, visually engaging layouts where content of varying heights fits together perfectly.

Features

  • Masonry Layout – Transform any Query Loop into a beautiful Pinterest-style grid
  • Works with Core Blocks – Uses native WordPress Query Loop blocks
  • No Vendor Lock-in – Standard WordPress markup, easy to switch or customize
  • Lightweight – Optimized Masonry.js library with minimal footprint
  • Responsive – Automatically adapts to different screen sizes

Any Issues or Bugs?

This plugin was created by a solo developer who genuinely cares about quality. org support forums on this page and open a support topic before leaving a negative rating.

I actively maintain this plugin to work with the latest WordPress codebase and I’m very responsive to user feedback. Give me a chance to help you – most issues can be resolved quickly!
