• Wondering if you can help me please.

    I was trying to create three columns. On my index – https://www.savorysimple.net/recipe-index/recipes-by-ingredient/ – the left column is way longer that the right one because it’s dividing up the alphabet equally, I think. I tried dividing it into 3 columns, which didn’t seem to matter.

    There’s a shortcode that should fix this, but it turns the page into one column when I try, so I must be doing it wrong.

    I also tried the nice anchor option where you can list all of the letters with anchor jumps at the top, but nothing is happening when I try inserting it.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Yes. What it does is take the number of tag starting letters (a,b,c etc..) and divides it by the number of columns you set. So let’s say you have all 26 letters represented but say in a, b and c, you have 100 tags but in x, y and z, only 3 each. That would make the first column a lot longer simply by the number of tags.

    On the show_navigation, you have a curly quote issue it appears. ”yes”

    But, as this plugin has a lot of legacy options in it, I would try this first (assuming you want three columns):

    [mctagmap columns="3" width="120px" show_navigation="yes" tag_count="yes" responsive="yes"]

    Note: Copy/paste into a text editor first as WP might wrap /code/ around it other wise messing with your font.

    The responsive=”yes” will add CSS and JS to the page to use CSS columns and try to dynamically find your break points. Note: I just guessed at 120px but that’s easily tweaked.

    See if that works better and let me know.

    Thanks for trying my plugin!
