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.

Post Format Block

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.

Go to the homepage or blog page of a site, chances are, all of the posts look similar: A title, an excerpt and a featured image. Why not display the most important part of your posts to readers and actually give them a reason to click on your post a read it? That’s what this plugin does.
To enable Post Style formatting functionality, go to Settings->Reading and select “Enable Post Style formatting.”
McNinja Post Styles is what we always wanted Post Formats to be: powerful, flexible and extendable. Unleash the creativity of your content.
McNinja Post Styles can display content based on the Post Style of a post. For example, if your post has a video in it and you’ve selected the ‘Video’ style, your blog page, category pages, etc. will display that video rather than an excerpt.
Post Styles can be selected for a Post from the ‘Edit Post’ screen.

</ul>

McNinja Post Styles

It's like Post Formats, but actually useful. Every post is unique, start treating them that way.
