Post Grid & Post Slider – Carousel, Filter Tabs & Related Posts

1. 01In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Add New and search for “Post Grid & Post Slider”, or upload the post-slider-carousel folder to /wp-content/plugins/ .
2. 02Activate the plugin.
3. 03Go to Post Slider & Grid in the admin menu and set up your slider or grid.
4. 04Add it to a page: Block editor: add the “Post Slider & Grid” block, then pick Slider or Grid in the sidebar.
5. 05Shortcode: [psc_print_post_grid] or [psc_print_post_slider_carousel]
6. 06Theme file: <?php echo do_shortcode('[psc_print_post_grid]'); ?>
7. 07For related posts, add related="1" to the shortcode, or turn on Related Posts in the settings.

How do I show related posts under my articles?

Turn on Related Posts in the grid settings, then place [psc_print_post_grid related="1"] where you want them – usually in your theme’s single.php , below the content. The plugin matches posts by category and leaves out the post being read.

Related mode only renders on a single post. On an archive or a page it shows nothing, which is intentional.

Pro can insert them automatically under every post, so you never touch a template file.

Can visitors filter the grid by category?

Yes. Switch on “Category filter tabs” in the grid settings and buttons appear above the grid. Clicking one filters without reloading the page.

The tabs only list categories your grid is allowed to show, so a visitor can never land on an empty result.

Does it work with custom post types?

Yes. Any registered public post type, including WooCommerce products. Choose it under “Post types to include or exclude”.

Will it work with my theme?

Yes. The grid and slider inherit your theme’s fonts, and you can set your own colours for headings, meta text, content and the Read More link.

Does it work in the block editor?

Yes, there is a native “Post Slider & Grid” block. Add it, choose Slider or Grid, and pick your settings in the sidebar. Shortcodes work too, in the Classic editor or a Shortcode block.

Can I put more than one grid on the same page?

The free version has one saved configuration, which you can place more than once. If you need several grids with different settings on one page, that is what the Pro version’s unlimited grids are for.

Why is my masonry grid not staggering?

Masonry is a Pro layout, and it needs two things to look different from a normal grid: image cropping switched off, and featured images with different heights. If every image is the same shape, every card is the same height, and masonry looks like the default grid.

Are private or password protected posts shown?

No. Only published posts your visitors are allowed to see.

Does the plugin slow my site down?

It loads its CSS and JavaScript only on pages where a slider or grid is actually present. There is no tracking, no external requests and no fonts loaded from third parties.

Is my data sent anywhere?

No. The plugin makes no external requests and sets no cookies.
