Message:

I have a layout where we want to place the custom posts types on alternating rows and 2 & 3 columns.

so basically:

<div class="wrapper">

  <div class="row">

    <div>post 1</div>

    <div>post 2</div>

  </div>

  <div class="row">

    <div>post 3</div>

    <div>post 4</div>

    <div>post 5</div>

  </div>

  <!-- then 2 new row with 2 columns followed by 3 columns and so on  -->

</div>

Any suggestions?

My Answer:
columns. Here's how you can achieve this in WordPress using PHP:

1. First, you need to query the custom post types using WP_Query. You can specify the post type and any other parameters you need in the query.

php
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'your_custom_post_type',
'posts_per_page' => -1, // Get all posts
);

$custom_query = new WP_Query($args);


2. Next, you can loop through the custom posts and output them in alternating rows and 2 columns.

php
if ($custom_query->have_posts()) {
$count = 0;
while ($custom_query->have_posts()) {
$custom_query->the_post();

if ($count % 2 == 0) {
echo '

';
}

echo '

';
// Output your custom post content here
the_title();
the_content();
echo '

';

if ($count % 2 != 0) {
echo '

'; // Close row
}

$count++;
}

if ($count % 2 != 0) {
echo '
