The Categories Grid section can be styled in three different ways depending on your content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"grid\">Categories Grid (default)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Cards laid out in a responsive grid (3 across on desktop, 1 on mobile). Each card shows the category name, description, post count, and the three most recent articles within it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Best for: knowledge bases with 4u20138 categories of similar weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tree\">Sidebar Tree<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A two-column layout: navigation tree on the left, current category contents on the right. Readers can browse the entire knowledge base structure at a glance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Best for: technical documentation with deep hierarchies. Think API references or developer guides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"list\">Single-Column List<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Articles in a flat editorial-style list, grouped by category with a subtle divider. No cards, no grid u2014 just clean prose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Best for: editorial knowledge bases, brand documentation, internal handbooks. Pairs beautifully with the Editorial skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"switching\">Switching layouts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In <strong>Appearance u2192 Customize u2192 MyWiki Theme Options u2192 Homepage<\/strong>, set <em>Categories layout<\/em>.
