Hi Evolve

**Would it be possible to add the ability to control how many items appear in the Course Page Element when set to Display: Grid view?**

Often we have courses with even numbers of pages. Currently if I have 2, 4, 5 etc pages we end up with an empty gap. This is especially noticeable with 2 pages. Wondered if we could add the ability to change the number of items on show? (Similar to Legacy Box menu functionality)`

That’s assuming I’ve not just missed that setting! 🙂

Thanks

I have a problem with this. I set items per row to 2 in the Editor, which looks like pic 1 in preview. However after Publishing (to web), the page looks like pic 2. Doewsn’t seem to ackknowledge the number of columns.

Hi @Anders - not sure what’s going on there, I just tried a quick test of this myself and it seemed fine. Would you mind logging a ticket with Evolve Support so that they can take a proper look?

Hi Matt  
You know, I think I know what was happening (since it works OK today).  
Sometimes the Azure Storage we use to store the course doesn’t serve the latest uploaded CSS files. Newer CSS files seem to be cashed for 20 minutes and not served through their web server until cache time has exired.  
Anyway, forget the issue. IT WORKS AS EXPECTED!

Br, Anders
