Add functionality to have a content block with five columns..

You have functionality for content with 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 columns. Why not five?

We need it please.

What is the business process you are trying to achieve?

Our business has five core selling points that we are trying to communicate with five icons and wording and present it neatly in five columns.

I have tried it with two columns and three columns on top of one another but it does not look good.

Please add a module with five columns.

    At this stage, we will not be making changes to the system to support 5 column layouts.

    We will re-assess in the future should future versions of Bootstrap make this a more feasible option.

    I want to provide a further update on this request following initial review with the engineering team.

    The web pages that are generated via the content management system within the Recruitment Marketing Module are based on an underlying technology called "Bootstrap". This is a well adopted and supported technology which helps ensure that page layouts are responsive to different screen sizes and devices.

    The "Bootstrap" layout doesn't naturally support a five column layout, which is the reason why we haven't to this point looked to add support for it in the system. Whilst it might be possible to extended the capabilities to support a five column layout, we need to ensure that this doesn't compromise the responsive behaviour of the site as a result.

    You can read more about Bootstrap here if you are interested: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.0/layout/grid/

    We will investigate this further, however, in the meantime, I'd suggest that a practical alternative to a five column layout might be to have a 2 row layout, with the top row having three columns (1/3 each), and the second row having 2 columns (1/2 each).

    Thanks for taking the time to submit this suggestion Alyce.

    I'm working with the engineering team to understand whether it is feasible for us to add an option for 5 columns.

    I'll provide an updated once we've had an opportunity to review.
