In an age of cluttered design and unintuitive interfaces, sliders have become a divisive subject
…which is why we won’t actually talk about them at all!
Instead, we’ll be covering two main topics: Presenting content in a tile-based layout with Masonry and how to actually get that content using WP_Query.
At the end of this session, you should have the tools needed to present your latest posts with their featured images or Custom Post Types with custom attributes in a modern layout. You’ll also be a bit more familiar with the process of getting information to loop through.
Level: Beginner designer, Beginner developer, Intermediate developer
Prerequisites: It is strongly suggested that you’ve looked under the hood of a theme at least once. You don’t need to master every aspect of theme development. Minimal knowledge of “The Loop” is a plus. A familiarity with CSS will be helpful.
