Audio Video Formats

When you write a blog post to be included in one of our Blog Modules, you can create one of 6 different post formats. Article, Video, Audio, Quote, Gallery and Link. Each of these formats structures you post differently, putting more focus on the type of content that the format represents.

When you write a blog post, you will notice a box to the right of your text editor called "Format." Within this box are the 6 format options. Choosing "Standard" will result in a normally-formatted blog post, while each other options has a unique design associated with the format type.
