It’s A LOT simpler than people think, all you need to do is change three different widths, that’s it! 

Step 1: decrease the post width

Step 2: increase the wrap width, you should start with having the center width at twice the post width & then keep on increasing the wrap width until you find two columns will fit in it.

Step 3: The final thing you need to change is the width of your photo posts to the exact same width of your posts, you’ll need to do this every time you change the width of your posts.

That’s it!
