  Hi everyone! I’m kind of learning as I go here so maybe this is a lot simpler than I’ve been making it. :)

  I have a blog that is primarily in English, but I want to eventually post in several languages, starting with French. To keep the languages separate, on my menu I have a page “En Français”, where all my French posts will be. I want these posts to display in a grid formation, three columns and as many rows as I need, with new posts appearing in the top left corner and bumping the others down, like this:

  Post 1 | Post 2 | Post 3
  Post 4 | Post 5 | Post 6…

  I’ve used the display-posts shortcode in Edit Page, where I’m using “France” as the example tag (I haven’t published any posts in French just yet):

  [display-posts include_excerpt="true" image_size="thumbnail" wrapper="div" display-posts tag="France"]

  I just can’t seem to get the posts to display horizontally. Is there any way to do this? I am not on a Premium or Business plan; could this be the problem? Thank you for any and all help :)

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  PS – I suppose what I am trying to do is mimic the Gateway homepage posts display, but with multiple columns instead of only one
