# Post

The **Caards** theme includes several customization options for individual post pages.

These settings let you control how content is displayed within each post. Some options may also apply to pages (content type: *page*) when using the same layout structure.

The following options are available:

<table data-view="cards"><thead><tr><th></th><th></th><th data-hidden data-card-target data-type="content-ref"></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Template</strong></td><td>Choose between different layout styles for posts.</td><td><a href="/pages/kV5AdUXMbnRVFDqpcJwN">/pages/kV5AdUXMbnRVFDqpcJwN</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Metadata</strong></td><td>Show or hide elements like author name, publish date, and reading time.</td><td><a href="/pages/2Oq4zjJsY8RD4sbZIYuD">/pages/2Oq4zjJsY8RD4sbZIYuD</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Footer</strong></td><td>Show or hide elements like tags and share links.</td><td><a href="/pages/1yUVIIpt85SOMFN6sTQi">/pages/1yUVIIpt85SOMFN6sTQi</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Related posts</strong></td><td>Enable and customize a related posts section.</td><td><a href="/pages/3l7nkmu68Uf0rbDAi8fW">/pages/3l7nkmu68Uf0rbDAi8fW</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Drop caps</strong></td><td>Enable or disable drop caps on the first paragraph.</td><td><a href="/pages/AtRJ2zpJCAezoJQGytfk">/pages/AtRJ2zpJCAezoJQGytfk</a></td></tr><tr><td><strong>Lightbox</strong></td><td>Turn on image zoom for images inside posts.</td><td><a href="/pages/kjxOWLUciBWxAhWFhGH2">/pages/kjxOWLUciBWxAhWFhGH2</a></td></tr></tbody></table>
