ColumnStarta
WordPress Shortcode Columns


ColumnStarta is a WordPress plugin designed to make it easy and fast to set up columns of content in any WordPress post, page or other type of WordPress content. It's the perfect solution to help you easily organize the display of your content.
With ColumnStarta you can display your content in one, two or as many columns as you want, anywhere you specifically want, regardless of how your theme normally displays content.
The plugin uses a simple and easy system of shortcodes.
All you have to do is insert the relevant shortcode to identify where in your content you want a row or column to start and end, and how wide you want each column to be.
Simply wrap the content you want displayed in any given column by the shortcode. And yes, you can type the shortcodes straight into your content as you prepare it without the need to switch between visual and html editing modes.
It's that easy.
Want to see an example of ColumnStarta in action? Then take a look at the ThemeStarta Help Guide Contents Menu. Using ColumnStarta, the links to tutorials you see at the top of the page were easily organized into rows and columns without using tables or having to perform other hair pulling methods of column organization.
In "The Shortcodes" area below, we'll give even more examples.
The shortcodes are simple. To start a row or column:
[startarow] starts a row
[startacolumn] starts a new column
[startacolumn width="50%"] starts a new column with a specified width (in this case the width would be half the length of the entire row).
To end a row or end a column, simply repeat the shortcode with a / at the beginning. For example:
[/startacolumn] ends a column
[/startarow] ends a row
The row will automatically span the width of the content area you're working with, saving you from performing any manual calculations at all. Each column is then set to a % width of the row. You specify the percentage and ColumnStarta automatically calculates the precise width for you.
The following example shows how the shortcodes work to create three equal width columns together with content:
[startarow][startacolumn width="33%"]This is the 1st column in the row.[/startacolumn][startacolumn width="33%"]This is the 2nd column in the row.[/startacolumn][startacolumn width="33%"]This is the 3rd column in the row.[/startacolumn][/startarow]
And this is how the above code will display:
If you want to convert any of your existing WordPress content into columns, all you have to do is install the plugin and then wrap your existing content with the appropriate shortcodes. Simple!
And, of course, you can display any kind of content you want in your columns. In the above example, we could make the columns look a lot better with an image, heading, and some sub text. To do that, all we need to do is insert an image in each column, bold some text, and we get the following:

This is the 1st column.
Here's some example text for the first column. You could write as much text here as you wanted and include links or any other type of content you want.

This is the 2nd column.
Here's some example text for the first column. You could write as much text here as you wanted and include links or any other type of content you want.

This is the 3rd column.
Here's some example text for the first column. You could write as much text here as you wanted and include links or any other type of content you want.
As you can see, if you want to organize your content into columns, ColumnStarta is the easy way to do it.
