Themify Builder Tiles

Description

The Builder Tiles addon adds to Themify Builder layouts in a mosaic with blocks of varying sizes to display posts, portfolio, and galleries in a Pinterest-style grid. Built for photographers, designers, and creative studios that need to present visual collections with a hierarchy of emphasis, it controls width, height, and the proportion of each tile through a drag-and-drop interface directly within the builder.

Key Features of Builder Tiles

• Tile module in the builder
  New element appears in Themify Builder and can be dragged into any row or column.
• Customizable sizes per block
  Each tile gets its own width and height, forming asymmetrical patterns in a mosaic style.
• Category filters
  Filter buttons reorder the tiles in real time according to the taxonomy chosen by the visitor.
• Configurable hover effects
  Overlays with title, description, and link appear when hovering over each block.
• Automatic responsive grid
  The tiles reorganize the layout on smaller screens while maintaining item proportions and readability.

Benefits of Builder Tiles

• Distinctive visual presentation
  Breaks the pattern of uniform grids and adds personality to portfolio and blog pages.
• Clear content hierarchy
  Highlighted items get larger tiles, guiding the visitor’s eye to the main content.
• Higher visitor engagement
  Irregular layouts capture more attention and encourage exploring long galleries.
• Work within the same workflow
  No external plugin—build everything in the builder you already use for the rest of the pages.

Who Is Builder Tiles For?

• Photographers who need to display a portfolio with visual hierarchy between main and secondary photos.
• Creative studios and design agencies that present branding, illustration, or interior projects in galleries.
• Editorial sites and digital magazines that organize cover stories in magazine format.

How to Download Builder Tiles

The Builder Tiles is available for download here on Ultrapack. After downloading the .zip file, install in Plugins > Add New > Upload plugin, select the package, and activate it. With Themify Builder also active, the tile module starts appearing in the list of elements in the visual builder.

For those already working with Themify Builder and who want to break the repetitive look of blogs and portfolios in equal columns, the Builder Tiles addon adds a mosaic visual vocabulary that the default builder doesn’t cover. Native integration with WordPress taxonomies and content types ensures that filters and galleries keep up with the site’s growth without layout rework for every new publication.
