The Case Study Ninja Admin Panel Once the Case Study Ninja plugin is activated, you can access its admin panel by going to Tools / Case Study Ninja. The Case Study Ninja admin panel can be used to customize how your case study previews appear on your website. The following controls are available to you: Display as directory listing? – this allows you to choose to display case study previews as a directory list with case study showing per row. If you select no, then case studies will display in a grid format and you can choose the number of case studies displayed on each row. Help support us by displaying Powered by Case Study Ninja – if you’d like to help us grow, please select yes to display a small Case Study Ninja logo at the bottom of your case studies with ‘Powered by Case Study Ninja’ text. Total number of case study previews to display – this allows you to specify the total number of case study previews that will be displayed. Number of case study previews to display per row (for non-directory listing style) - this allows you to specify the number of case study previews to display per row. For example, if you chose to display a total of 10 case studies and 2 per row, a total of five rows would be displayed with 2 case studies on each row. This setting is only used if you have selected ‘no’ in the ‘Display as a directory listing’ setting.
