 * Hi, any idea why the grid is not displaying? I’m using this plugin on another
   site and it works great but I can’t figure out what happens here..
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fdoesnt-display-grid%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hi LasPalmas,
 * Did you specify how many columns you want to display in the “Teaser Columns (
   2-6)” value?

 * Hi John,
 * Yes, here are the settings. Not sure what could be wrong.

 * It looks like it is working to me. You have 8 “feature” posts showing at top,
   then 8 “teaser” posts displayed in three columns: [https://cl.ly/0F1I3K382y2Q](https://cl.ly/0F1I3K382y2Q)
 * Your theme is adding 80px left/right padding to all entries, so the teasers don’t
   look that great. You’ll want to write your own CSS that targets .entry.teaser(
   less padding, smaller heading…)

 * Hi Bill,
 * Thanks so much for your response. I didn’t see the 8 feature. Ok, I can remove
   the CSS so it has less padding.
 * One last question. Do you know if I can show the less excerpt? Right now is showing
   the entire post. I was able to do it with my other site janarebelo.com/blog/ 
   but I’m stuck again with Costa del Tennis. Thanks again!

 * Here are two tutorials:
 * 1. Use full post for feature (this assumes you use the excerpt for teasers): 
   [https://www.billerickson.net/code/full-content-features-in-grid-loop/](https://www.billerickson.net/code/full-content-features-in-grid-loop/)
   You can change the excerpt length using the `excerpt_length` filter
 * 2. Change length of excerpt for teasers (using excerpt for both feature and teaser):

 * That’s great. I now realize I was using this for my other site:
 * add_filter(‘excerpt_length’,’custom_excerpt_length’);
    function custom_excerpt_length(
   $num_words ){ return 10; // number of words to show }
 * Do you have any idea how to add the featured picture also?

 * The featured image can be added in Genesis > Theme Settings

 * Are there any shortcodes or documentation that would show me which ones to use?
