A post format changes how a blog post is displayed. Choose it in the post editor, in the **Format** setting of the post sidebar (classic editor: the **Format** box).

SweetDate supports these formats:

| Format | How the post is shown |
|---|---|
| **Standard** | The default blog post with its featured image |
| **Aside** | A short note without a title, like a status update |
| **Audio** | An audio player above the content (paste the audio URL or embed code in the post) |
| **Gallery** | A slider with the images of the post gallery |
| **Image** | One large image as the main content |
| **Quote** | The post text styled as a quotation |
| **Status** | A short update, shown with the author avatar |
| **Link** | The post title links to an external URL |
| **Video** | A video player above the content (YouTube, Vimeo or a self-hosted video) |

Formats only change the design. You can switch the format of a post at any time without losing its content.
