The default shows two columns. Am I able to increase this to 4 on the listings page, or is this only available when adding the listings block to a regular page?

Hi @Knode,

I haven’t tested this snippet myself, but HivePress AI suggested this:

```php
add_filter(
	'hivepress/v1/templates/listings_view_page',
	function( $template ) {
		return hivepress()->helper->merge_trees(
			$template,
			[
				'blocks' => [
					'listings' => [
						'columns' => 4,
					],
				],
			]
		);
	}
);

```

You can use a plugin like [Code Snippets](https://share.google/kr2msLL7ou3fxydtO) to easily add the PHP snippet.

Alternatively, you can [override the template](https://share.google/46bKwJT1hAhdhXVy9), rebuild the default layout, and customize the number of columns. This allows you to completely customize the page if you want to make further changes, too.

I hope this helps!

Edit: see [this topic](https://community.hivepress.io/t/howto-setup-listing-page-into-3-or-4-collumn-instead-of-default-2/16749), re: confirmed solution & changes for mobile, too.

Cheers,  
Chris ✌
