Grid Block

Description

A Grid Block allows you to display content in a neatly organized grid. You can easily put other blocks into the grid, and control its presentation.

You can accomplish the same basic function using columns and rows, but a Grid Block is quicker and more efficient in some situations.

There are tons of uses for a grid, including logos (see the specific Logo Grid Block), posts, locations, team members, highlights/icons, and much more.
