Content Query web part is limited to 5 columns Can this be changed?

I have a boss that wants buttons links across the site collection. I am using a site column "Full HTML content with formatting and constraints for publishing" in a list with plans to use a "Content Query" on the sub sites.

Here the rub, I limited to 5 columns.  This has to be something that everyone can use when I am done... users.

I can use SharePoint Designer but I am not an expert.  

The big question is how can I change the limit of 5 columns.

Thanks

Hi Rob,

What did you mean by 5 columns limitation in Content Query web part?

Did you mean only 5 columns can be displayed in Content Query web part?

If that is case, you can modify the existing ItemStyle.xsl (which will ghost the file) or create a new XSL style sheet to display the custom fields (more than 5 columns) in Content Query web part based on your need.

Here is a link about how to create a new XSL style sheet for your reference:

If above is not what you want, please provide a screenshot of your requirement.

Best regards,

Victoria
