If you want to make a portfolio for anyone creative or make a blog for anyone that wants a blog, the masonry grid is a must. I would really really want to have the ability to make a masonry grid with cms items.
4 years later and still no solution to this (8 years from the original post). It's 2025 and Webflow doesn't have a proper masonry grid gallery solution (CMS or not). HUGE oversight. How can Webflow not have addressed the most commonly used gallery option? Don't point me to YouTube videos explaining how to set this up with text columns, that is not acceptable as you have no control over the order of your images at different breakpoints, and the lightbox order strictly adheres to the order of the DOM. I'm so frustrated by the lack of attention to this component I want to jump platforms as every single client asks for this, and is let down because they have to pick a less-than-ideal/inferior gallery. What gives? If you have an actual solution please post it because I don't see one anywhere (again, the layout is easy to achieve, it's the ORDER you cannot fully control).
Is there any word on this yet? This is a must for most blogs, and I would love to have an easy way to make some posts span columns to be easier on viewers eyes.
this would be extremely useful, and I agree with other people saying that there should be more options to change columns in CMS grids.
for example, www.semplice.com offers classic and fluid grid styles. webflow should definitely draw inspiration from that and all the other features of that product!
I just went through all of the available forum posts for masonry grid. but they all fall in one or two categories or rely on custom code that doesn't work really well.
One thing that none of the solutions address is having the number of columns being dynamic based on the width of the browser. 4 presets isn't enough. I want the number to change dynamically between 1 and as many as fits properly. if someone opens the page on a 27" iMac I don't want 4 columns. I want 8!
also horizontal sorting is missing. it goes down in columns. not acceptable in many cases. people don't read websites column by column. they do the F pattern of scanning a webpage. columsn just goes 100% against this. HUGE over sight in my opinion.
Please make it sort the content/pics horizontally and give it the ability to filter ( e.g. buttons above the gallery grid) the displayed content (e.g. CMS Content Categories).

this should also work perfectly with items of different height. having a fixed width limitation is understandable.

This has been around forever on Wordpress
PLEASE!
Add masonry, collage, slider, etc views to the CMS media editor asap!
These are needed very badly.
Would be awesome if this would be made a feature in webflow!
Yes please!

Great idea!
