# Columns Shortcode – wrapping prematurely?

 * Hi,
 * I’m still new to wordpress, so it’s possible I’m not doing this right, but I’m
   trying to add 3 images in a single row on to my homepage. The way that seems 
   the best way to do it is to use the Shortcode for One Third Columns.
 * When I do this, the 3rd item wraps to a second line.
 * I tried using the One Fourth Shortcode instead, and the last item again wraps
   to a second line. (This solution can work for my needs, since I only have 3 items
   I’d like to present, but it strikes me as perhaps buggy??)
 * The same thing happens if I use text or images for the content.
 * Please advise if this is a bug, if this functionality is not meant to work on
   a homepage, or if I’m just doing it wrong.
 * Thank you!
 * Joey

 * I have since found some examples that include position=”first” and position=”
   last”, which has been helpful, but what about the 2nd and 3rd positions?
 * Thanks for your help!

 * All the positions should be “first” except for the last one, which you should
   name
    “last”
