I'm trying to wrap multiple same class divs into a div and to skip divs not with the same class. .wrap doesn't combine them, and .wrapAll throws the non-classed divs underneath. I've been tinkering around with attempts to create an alternate solution but with no avail.

You can loop pretty quickly through your <div>
elements using a for
loop. In the below code, just change the initial selector here to grab all those siblings divs, e.g. #content > div.entry
or wherever they are:
var divs = $("div.entry");
for(var i=0; i<divs.length;) {
i += divs.eq(i).nextUntil(':not(.entry)').andSelf().wrapAll('<div />').length;
}
You can give it a try here. We're just looping through, the .entry
<div>
elements using .nextUntil()
to get all the .entry
elements until there is a non-.entry
one using the :not()
selector. Then we're taking those next elements, plus the one we started with (.andSelf()
) and doing a .wrapAll()
on that group. After they're wrapped, we're skipping ahead either that many elements in the loop.
I just whipped up a simple custom solution.
var i, wrap, wrap_number = 0;
$('div').each(function(){ //group entries into blocks "entry_wrap_#"
var div = $(this);
if (div.is('.entry')) {
wrap = 'entry_wrap_' + wrap_number;
div.addClass(wrap);
} else {
wrap_number++;
}
});
for (i = 0; i <= wrap_number; i++) { //wrap all blocks and remove class
wrap = 'entry_wrap_' + i;
$('.' + wrap).wrapAll('<div class="wrap"/>').removeClass(wrap);
}
You could alternatively append new divs to your markup, and then append the content you want wrapped into those.
If your markup is this:
<div class="wrap">
<div class="col-1"></div>
<div class="col-1"></div>
<div class="col-1"></div>
<div class="col-1"></div>
<div class="col-1"></div>
<div class="col-2"></div>
<div class="col-2"></div>
<div class="col-2"></div>
<div class="col-2"></div>
<div class="col-2"></div>
</div>
Use the following to append two new divs (column-one
and column-two
) and then append the appropriate content into those divs:
// Set vars for column content
var colOne = $('.col-1').nextUntil('.col-2').addBack();
var colTwo = $('.col-2').nextAll().addBack();
// Append new divs that will take the column content
$('.wrap').append('<div class="column-first group" /><div class="column-second ground" />');
// Append column content to new divs
$(colOne).appendTo('.column-first');
$(colTwo).appendTo('.column-second');
