Is it possible to use a query on some external database and present the data in blocks instead of columns and rows? For example I want to present a list of companies that sell product XYZ. I would then like to create blocks of information about these companies (logo, company name, address, short description etc.) and present these blocks underneath each other.
Someone told me that this is possible but I haven't figured out how and unfortunately could not find it in the documentation.
If you can confirm that it is possible and described somewhere in the documentation I only need a link to that section and can probably find it out myself from there.
I am sorry to disappoint you, but unfortunately something like this is not possible with the plugin's built-in features.
You may be able to do that with some custom code, but it can't be done from plugin's functions. We don't yet have a single cell shortcode, so there's nothing to pull that info from the table.
