Misleading Error Message WARNING: All children of a ‘grid-row’ should be ‘grid-item’ [design.grid]
- 30 April 2025
Today I am hit by a message “WARNING: All children of a ‘grid-row’ should be ‘grid-item’ [design.grid] “ from the sphinx-design extension when building a Sphinx documentation. The error line points to a grid that works perfect fine in another file.
After some digging, it appears that when the next paragraph is indented as quoted text, no matter how many blanks are in between the grid still think it as its children.

Today I am hit by a message “WARNING: All children of a ‘grid-row’ should be ‘grid-item’” from the sphinx-design extension when building a Sphinx documentation. The error line points to a grid whose only members are grid items.
After some digging, it appears that when a space is missing between .. grid-item-card:: and the card name, then the card won’t be recognized as a card, and generates this message.
