Hi support team,

I recently start using Blocks. It really helps me to get things done.
I made a 2 colums lay out for a CPT. For some reason the columns do not work in IE 11. In Chrome and Firefox it works fine.
I use the OceanWP theme .

Thank you for looking into it.

Kind regards,

Edwin

Dear Edwin,

Thanks for the details, I can duplicate the same problem in my localhost, and have escalated this issue, will update here if there is any news.

And according to Microsoft document, the IE browser will be retired soon:
hidden link
Internet Explorer 11 is the last major version of Internet Explorer...

So it is not a good idea to persist with IE browser.

Thank you Luo.
The information is helpful. 3% of my visitors use IE. Good to hear IE will be retired.

Kind regards,
Edwin

Here is the feedback from our developers, this won't be fixed, since this affects too few users and IE browser is going to retired.

it's unfortunate because there is a very simply ie.11 autoprefix css for css grid and for intranet users and certain industries that end up paying extended support we are going to see ie.11 in the wild for a while still unfortunately. It's just too risky building a full site out in toolset grid and then having a customer of a client mention the issue, and having no fix. So it's going to be flexbox gutenberg rows addon for me for the forseable future 🙁
