Blogs now support a new author layout that highlights author information in a modern, professional format so readers can better connect with the person behind the content.
What’s new
- Choose between two author layouts
Select the author experience that best fits your brand:
Modern preview (new)
- Card-based design
- Clearer visual hierarchy
- Designed to improve reader engagement
- Default layout for newly created blog posts
Classic preview
- The existing author layout
- Available if you prefer the current experience
- Enhanced author profiles
Author details are presented in a more structured format, including:
- Profile image
- Author name
- Designation or role
- Author bio

This helps readers quickly understand the author’s background and expertise.

The author section is optimized for desktop, tablet, and mobile.
