Description
The Layout Switcher adds a visual control that toggles between display modes, such as grid, list, and map, inside listings built with JetEngine and filtered by JetSmartFilters. It is for people who build product catalogs, business directories, or real estate listing portals and want to let visitors choose between viewing results in grid, list, or map, without reloading the whole page on every mode switch.
