Can the number of columns in a grid be edited in Webflow, or is it only possible to hide/show the grid?

TL;DR
  • Select the Grid element, click "Edit Grid" in the Style panel to add, remove, or resize columns.
  • Adjust columns per breakpoint for responsive layouts, and optionally hide grid items using display settings.

Yes, the number of columns in a grid can be edited in Webflow. You can change both the number of columns and rows for any CSS Grid layout using the Webflow Designer.

1. Access the Grid Settings

  • Select the Grid element on your canvas.
  • Go to the Style panel (right sidebar).
  • Under the Layout section, click the Edit Grid button.

2. Change Number of Columns

  • Inside the grid editor, you’ll see options to add or remove columns and rows.
  • Click the "+" button on the right edge of the grid to add a column.
  • Hover over the top of any column and click the "trash bin" icon to remove a column.
  • You can also click and drag column lines to adjust column width or select the unit (e.g., FR, %, PX).

3. Use Breakpoints for Responsive Layouts

  • You can modify columns per breakpoint (desktop, tablet, mobile, etc.).
  • Webflow allows you to customize the grid layout for each screen size, letting you hide or reduce columns as needed.

4. Hide/Show Grid Items (Not Columns)

  • If your goal is to visually simplify the layout without actually changing columns, consider using the Display setting (e.g., Display: None) on selected grid items.
  • This is different from modifying the column count—it only hides content.

Summary

You can edit the number of columns in a grid directly using the Webflow Designer’s Edit Grid tool. Columns can be added, removed, or adjusted, and different configurations can be set for different breakpoints.
