Post Layouts

Three ways to present your content

Yellow Suna provides three post layouts to adapt the presentation of an article to different types of content while maintaining a consistent reading experience.

  • Standard Post
    The standard layout combines the article content with Yellow Suna’s global sidebar. It is the default choice for regular posts and provides a consistent structure throughout the site.
  • Full-Width Post
    The full-width layout removes the default sidebar and gives the post the entire content area. This provides maximum flexibility: you can use the available space as it is or create one or more custom sidebars using blocks and patterns.
  • Custom Sidebar Post
    This layout allows you to create a sidebar specifically for an individual post. Yellow Suna provides a predefined sidebar pattern with exactly the same dimensions and layout as the global sidebar. As a result, a Custom Sidebar Post and a Standard Post are virtually indistinguishable when viewed by the reader—the difference is simply the content displayed in the sidebar.

Using a Post as a Custom Sidebar

Yellow Suna also allows you to use a regular post as the sidebar of another post. This provides greater flexibility, as the sidebar can be created and edited independently from the main article and reused whenever needed.
