Does Multi Column Order - Down not do what you want?

I think this is a feature request.

Also Joomla 1.5 displayed blog items in rows without vertical adjustments. Headlines always starting at the same height. Joomla 1.5 used TABLEs. Since 1.6 DIV rows. Thar's the only difference.

Maybe you used template overrides plus masonry effects? Or a CCK plus additional extensions? Or special templates (there are some for all Joomla versions)?

EDIT: Templates JA_Purity and rhuk_milkyway in Joomla 1.5 used template overrides. Thus they had vertical adjustments.

Masonry is not a bootstrap plugin and not implemented in Joomla core (never was).

An override in JA Purity in an old J1.5, so indeed it was already an issue is the solution that should be done in Joomla Core. Also in the new Purity iii their is no override.
Let us not lose energy on what, why and because, but try tot make a n solution in Core Joomla.

I know that some 3rd aprty exteions has solutions, but that is not what my issue is. I think Joomla should make this possible in an option inside the blog-settings. Being straight forward....it is very ugly to leave it this way (with white spaces) because customers ask for this kind of article-blog possibilties with full displayed article in blogview.

Besides that, I think a standard change in the core-layout shouldn´t be that difficult.

@brianteeman
Sorry, but I explained that the core blog-solution (even in Core Joomal templates) not gives a solution. Just that is my statement. In he pull down should be another option.
In by the way...why not make this possibe ??

-Use Global
-Down
-Accross
-Masonry (tied up article vertical)

I am a bit flabbergasted that I have to explain this issue in this forum.

Sorry but I really dont understand you

What you're recommending requires a fair bit of custom JavaScript. Standard HTML/CSS behavior makes it so that the row is the height of the largest item in it (so if you have two items with varying length, the longest one will define the height for the full row). It takes JavaScript to alter the appearance to make it look as you suggest (or even put different elements of different sizes into a container that appears to be the same size). I think this type of behavior really does belong at the template override level and not something that is feasible to offer in core because of the amount of customization it would take to accomplish it.

As @FrankVo and @mbabker told you already this needs javascript. Best option is masonry as already stated in previous comment:
try http://masonry.desandro.com
All you need is to include some css the js library and some js to initialize it. Also some id’s for the div you want to reposition. It is not very hard to accomplish and you can do all of that in template override!

I wouldn't do that in core. It would very likely break templates and only complicates things. Also it would add yet another unneeded dependency into core.
It can be done easy using a template override if needed.

Closing as expected behavior.
