For some reason this plugin loads the masonry in columns so re- ordering is a nightmare. Taking me literal hours to re-order. Besides that loading is good but this problem makes the plugin virtually unusable IMO. Support also non- existant, check the support no replies for 5 months. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/bc838a5b751d5b95bb95cea3db15aeaa394ac63a972b226bea9ae5117ef06774? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Clean code](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/clean-code-3/)󠁿 [Sugar Ray](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mrwpress1/) May 18, 2022 Works like a dream.
