A post grid for Elementor with a bold, image-led card — magazine layouts built from any query you care to point it at.
A picture-led weekly. Six photographers, four writers, one printer in Leeds.
Every cover story runs at full bleed for a week, then moves down the page like everything else.
Photographed on the street, printed at full width, and never retouched beyond dust and scratches.
“A picture desk earns its keep by leaving things out. These three came back from the same week and none of them needed a caption to work.”
Renée Alcock, picture editor since 2021
Eight pieces this year, each one read by a clinician before it went out. We print the corrections at the top, not the bottom.
The lead frame carries a standfirst; the rest of the wall stays quiet so the pictures do the work.

A repeating mosaic on a six-track grid. Every third post starting with the first — posts 1, 4, 7 and so on — takes a large tile four tracks wide and two rows tall with a 28px title, and the two posts after it take half-width tiles with a 20px title. A limit of nine therefore produces three feature tiles and six supporting ones.
No, and this is the one thing to know before choosing it. The mosaic rhythm is fixed, so there is no Columns control — you shape it with Row Height and the two gap sliders instead. If you want plain equal columns you can dial from one to four, use the Sapling Grid or the Generic Grid in Sky Addons for Elementor.
Set Row Height, anywhere from 100 to 600 pixels. Left empty, row height simply follows the proportions of the featured images, which can leave the mosaic ragged when your library mixes portrait and landscape art. Give it a value and every row matches, with the large tile spanning exactly two of them.
The stylesheet hides the meta row and the excerpt on the half-width tiles so their overlay stays legible in a small frame — only the large tile carries the full set. Your Show Author and Show Date switches are still doing their job; they simply have no room to show on the supporting tiles at desktop width.
It collapses to a single column below 768px, every tile gets a 320px minimum height so the overlay always has something to sit on, and the byline and date come back on the tiles that had them suppressed at desktop width. The excerpt stays hidden from 1024px down.
Yes. Show Pagination prints numbered page links beneath the mosaic and hides them by itself when the query fits in one page. Because it uses WordPress’s standard paged variable it reloads the page rather than fetching in the background, and each new page restarts the large-tile rhythm from the top.
Row Gap and Column Gap are separate responsive sliders, both accepting pixels or ems, so you can run tight columns with generous rows on desktop and even them out on tablet. They set the grid gaps rather than padding on the cards, so the images stay flush to the edges of their own tiles.
Position decides it, so control the order. Order By plus ascending or descending sets the sequence, Offset skips posts from the front, and turning Ignore Sticky Posts off lets a post you have marked sticky in WordPress rise to first place — which is the simplest way to promote one article into the large frame.
Yes. Setting Source to Current Query makes the grid render whatever the page itself queried, so the same widget can be dropped into a category archive, a tag page or a search results template and stay correct. Source also offers Related, which pulls same-author posts of the same type as the item being viewed.
Neither. The Luster Grid is part of the free Sky Addons for Elementor plugin, runs on Elementor free, and builds the mosaic with native CSS grid spans rather than a JavaScript masonry library — so there is no reflow flash on load and nothing extra to enqueue.
