Suggestion - alternate version that doesn't use the word 'grid'

[tinamayswinkels]

I love gridlex, but I often run into difficulties where another plugin, pre-existing code library etc is already using classes with the word grid in them. As a workaround I edit the initial code to replace 'grid' with 'gridlex' everywhere to prevent conflicts, but I wonder if this is a common use case?

There seems to be a way to do this. If you scroll down to the "Documentation: Sass variables" section of the Gridlex website, it says:

---

So that Gridlex fits into your workflow, you can import it and override the next variables:

Variable names	Default value
$gl-gridName:	grid
$gl-colName:	col
$gl-attributeName:	class
$gl-gutter:	1rem
$gl-gutter-vertical:	1rem

---

I haven't tried that, but it might be worth investigating.

Yes @tinamayswinkels @trafnar that is the best solution: you can surcharge sass variables before including gridlex.scss

$gl-gridName: theGrid;
@import "gridlex";
