While the actual post content entry won't change, the theme can use the selected Format to display the post differently. How content is displayed is entirely up to the Theme, but the following list of available Post Formats provides some general WordPress guidelines as to how they might be styled.
- Standard – This is the standard/default blog post format.
- Aside – Typically styled without a title. Similar to a Facebook note update
- Audio – An audio file, such as a Podcast
- Chat – A chat transcript
- Gallery – A gallery of images. Post will likely contain a gallery shortcode and will have image attachments
- Image – A single image
- Link – A link to another site
- Quote – A quotation, most likely contained within a blockquote
- Status – A short status update, similar to a Twitter status update
- Video – A single video
