Remember Post Formats? If you want to display a post format in a block based theme, you need a plugin and this one does that and only that.

I'm not just the developer, I'm also a user of this plugin and I'm very happy with how it works

It's Great


Appreciate this plugin!I almost wish it had the option to enable post formats. A check box to turn them on for Posts and/or Pages would be nice. A lot of themes don't come with Formats and even for my own theme I threw together a quick one file plugin to enable them.


Does what it says on the box!

Adds a Post Format Block as a variation of the core/post-terms block.

Post Formats are a theme feature introduced in WordPress version 3.1. This plugin creates a simple widget that lets you place a list or dropdown of post formats in your sidebar. It works much the same as the Categories widget. The Post Formats Widget offers the following options: set a custom widget title, set custom tooltip text, display as a list or as a dropdown, show or hide post counts, show or hide post format ID numbers.
You must have at least one post assigned to a format other than ‘Standard’ in order for this widget to display anything. Note that there is a %format variable you can use in custom tooltip text to output the format name. Also, the format ID refers to the term_id in the wp_terms table. You would not normally want to display the format IDs to your site visitors, however it may be useful to know the IDs during theme development, since Post Formats are just a specialized case of a custom taxonomy.
