 * Hi Oliver,
 * I am trying to customize a category post archive in column format. It is currently
   displaying 3 columns per row, but I would like to change it to 2 columns per 
   row, as well as have it display in wide format instead of full-width format. 
   I would also like to display the published date on each post.
 * I tried adjusting what I thought were the relevant options (“Show Post Dates 
   in Grid”, “Grid Columns”) but it did not change portray the desired effect.
 * Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. Your plugin is great, I really
   appreciate it.

 * Hi Kyle,
 * The “Grid” options are just for the Grid layout.
 * I’ll look to provide some options for “Column” layout and get back to you. We
   hadn’t had any feedback for the Column layout so I’m glad someone is using it!
   🙂

 * Just following up with this thread. There are now options as follows …
 * “Customizer – Content Options – Show Post Dates in Column Template”
    “Customizer–
   Content Options – Column Template Columns (Small Screen)” “Customizer – Content
   Options – Column Template Columns (Medium Screen)” “Customizer – Content Options–
   Column Template Columns (Large Screen)”
