    Hi There,

    Thanks for writing in! Regretfully, at this time I am not entirely certain what it is you would like to accomplish based on the information given in your post. If you wouldn’t mind providing us with a little more clarification on what it is you’re wanting to do (a link to a similar example site would be very helpful, or perhaps some screenshots), we’ll be happy to provide you with a response once we have a better understanding of the situation.

    Thanks

    Hi Sorry, I will add a bit more detail.

    http://demo.theme.co/spa/news/
    When adding a post, you can select the format (standard, link, gallery etc..) like the attached image above.
    This then adds the icon to post and also assigns a BG colour and style.
    Is there an easy way to edit or create new format categories, so for example add a new one named products with its own icon and colour style.

    Maybe I didn’t search hard enough in the WordPress options but I couldn’t seem to find a way to edit these ‘format’ categories.

    Thanks again.

    Hello There,

    Thank you for the clarifications!

    Post Formats is a theme feature introduced with Version 3.1. A Post Format is a piece of meta information that can be used by a theme to customize its presentation of a post. The Post Formats feature provides a standardized list of formats that are available to all themes that support the feature. Themes are not required to support every format on the list. New formats cannot be introduced by themes or even plugins. The standardization of this list provides both compatibility between numerous themes and an avenue for external blogging tools to access this feature in a consistent fashion.

    For more details, please check out the codex: https://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Formats

    By the way, X theme supports all of these defaults format. In the Spa demo site, it is using Icon stack. You can change the icons and colors for each post format in the customizer, Appearance > Customize > Icon. You just simply enable the Post Title icons and the custom colors.

    Hope this helps.
