 * Hello,
    I have a big problem with the visual Editor. The drag&drop does not work
   for post, if I add a layout with 3 or 2 columns and I try to insert a post does
   not work.
 * Please help me, I have last version of wordpress 4.9.6.
    Thanks a lot. Matteo

 * I look this warning in console:
    ” Warning: a `span` tag (owner: `Tooltip`) was
   passed a numeric string value for CSS property `maxWidth` (value: `400`) which
   will be treated as a unitless number in a future version of React. mailpoet.ad7f3d4b.

 * I think we’re all having this same problem.

 * Hi [@mttdl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mttdl/),
 * Unfortunately, since we had introduced the image alignment feature, it’s no longer
   possible to add posts into columns.
 * Enabling image alignment means that we’re relying on column layouts. Column layouts
   can’t be embedded in one another.
 * Moreover, you can still drag content from a single column to 2-column. In other
   words, your post can still be moved to a 2 or 3-column layout with a bit more
   effort.
 * Sorry for the inconvenience!

 * So, create the post as normal in a one column section first, then drag it to 
   a prepared two or three column section?

 * Yes, I already found this workaround.
 * But please staff mailpoet solve this problem, for many of my clients who make
   emails every day is a huge damage.
    Please remove image alignment. Which version
   can I enter without this problem? Thanks a lot for support. Matteo

 * Options – single columns can have left and right alignment for images. Double
   and triple columns offer simple image options. You can do it.

 * [@mttdl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mttdl/) for the context, image alignement
   was the single most requested feature by our users. This feature is only possible
   if posts are added in a single column block.
 * Obsviouly, this change is annoying if you need to add many posts in 2 or 3-column
   layouts.
 * How many posts are you adding in 2 or 3-column layouts? Over a dozen?

 * Yes [@mailpoet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mailpoet/),
    I have two customers
   who make a newsletter with 15 articles at the end of the day.
 * For them is a big problem…
    I await your fix or I must change plugin unfortunately.
 * Thanks for support.

 * Egads, I have the same problem and the workaround described does NOT fix it.
 * Adding a post to my latest newsletter, then drag-dropping either the post headline
   alone, or the entire post, onto to the content area of a two column layout fails.
 * Oh, wait, now I see that the image and the text below the image CAN be individually
   drag-dropped into a 2 column layout, but not the post headline.

 * Sorry, correction: regular drag-drop does work as a workaround. Using the move
   icons to push post content into multiple column layouts however does not work
   for the post headers.

 * Hi Matteo,
 * At this moment in time, we don’t have any plans on changing the functionality
   back to how it was, as this would then break the image alignment functionality
   which was much requested.
 * We have made a note though on our feedback loop board.
 * Thanks!

 * Sorry if I come back, there is news on my request?
    Thanks, it would be very 
   welcome by my customers.
 * It’s very important to us.
 * Thanks a lot.
