    Hi, I’m using this plugin to display my posts under each letter. But I have a lot of entries that start with “The” – is it possible to make the plugin ignore “The” when sorting the post titles? (So “The Anthem of Creation” would appear under “A”)

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Interesting I never added this before. Here’s a beta release including this option. Try it and let me know if it works and I’ll make an official release once I finish some of the other additions I’m working on.

    add title_divider="The" to your shortcode.

    Looking at your site, what page are you using my plugin on? I found this: https://anshar-arcanists.com/index/ but that’s not this plugin.

    OMG it works perfectly! Thank you!!!

    It’s on my homepage – I had temporarily removed it when the “The”s got completely unmanageable lol. It’s up again now. And is exactly what I wanted!

    Another question, and I dunno if it’s possible – with the columns, at the moment, if I specify 4 columns, it’s great on widescreen (4 columns) and mobile (1 column) but in between, the fourth column just appends under the third for 3 columns and when it hits 2, the third goes under the second and the fourth goes under that but in line with the first. Is it meant to do that? It’s a little messy on those “in between” stages.

    Cool glad it worked as planned. For columns, you really should try and use the responsive option. It takes a couple other dependencies but it makes columns, well… responsive.

    This plugin was originally written almost 10 years ago back when static sites were the norm and back then, columns option worked fine. Now? Not so much.

    try:

    [mctagmap show_posts="yes" title_divider="The" columns="4" width="190px" responsive="yes"]

    That’s much better!!! But I’m finding the ‘width’ definition isn’t taking hold. I tried reducing it but the columns don’t conform.

    But I think I’ve got something that works for now using pagebuilder to indent each site by slightly less than before.

    Thank you so so so much!!!

    Marking as resolved. Sorry, I forgot
