Adding new Bootstrap Row class for every 3 products in wordpress loop?

Hey Guys,

Does anyone know how to add a new row class every 3 products? I know how to do it with a regular PHP foreach loop, but i'm not sure where to put the conditional on a wordpress loop?

Any help would be great!

Thanks!

Joe

You can use $wp_query->post_count to get the count while in the loop and run whatever logic you need based off of it.

Hey Stephen,

        <div class="col-sm-12 col-md-9 text-center">
            <h3>Products</h3>
            <hr>

            <?php
              $args = array(
                'post_type' => 'products'
              );
              $query = new WP_Query($args);

              if( $query->have_posts() ) : while($query->have_posts() ) : $query->the_post(); 

            ?>


            <!-- ===== Start of Product ====== -->
              <div class="col-md-4 product-item">
                <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" data-toggle="modal" data-target='#<?php the_field('target'); ?>'>
                  <?php the_post_thumbnail('large'); ?>
                </a>
                <h4><?php the_field('product_name'); ?></h4>

                <button class="btn btn-default"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">view</a></button>
              </div>

            <!-- ===== End of Product ====== -->
            <?php 
                endwhile; endif; wp_reset_postdata();
            ?>



        </div> <!-- end col-md-9 -->

This is what I have at the moment, but because some of the wording is longer than others it causes some styling issues. I therefore want to insert a row every 3 products so that it maintains its structure.

Thanks,

Joe
