Post Feed Display Options

Below are examples of each display option available in the Post Feed component. When deciding on which view you want to use, don’t forget to preview how it looks on BOTH desktop and mobile. 

Balanced Boxes

Any image size works, and all images align for a neat a tidy appearance. Blurred sidebars (or top/bottom bars) will be added for images that do not meet a 3:2 aspect ratio. Recommended dimensions: 600 x 400. Recommend showing 4 or 8 posts.

ParentSquare Rows

Similar to the ParentSquare RSS Widget. Accent images are the smallest with this view. Any image size works, but stick with a 3:2 ratio such as 600x400 if you wish to avoid the background blurring. Recommend showing even number of posts. 

Floating Boxes

Allows images to maintain their original proportions. Has more of a “freeform” look with varying heights, if images are different sizes. But if all images are the same proportions, such as square, this option can also appear balanced, without any background blurring. Recommend showing 4 or 8 posts.

Rows

The largest option available. Images are free to display in their original proportions, but will always be 200px wide so they line up neatly on the left. Recommended size is 600x400 (3:2 aspect ratio) simply for consistency with other styles, but any size works. Do avoid images that are smaller than 200px wide to avoid pixelation.

 

Compact View

No teaser text. A horizontal sliding carousel appears if set to display more than 4 posts, and more than 4 posts are available. Recommend showing at least 10 posts. Recommend 3:2 aspect ratio, such as 600 x 400, if you want to avoid the background blurring.
