Hi! I’m a one-person content team with a background primarily in writing, but I’ve found myself in charge of an entire blog. Right now what I do is pretty basic, but I’m looking to add more to my posts.
​
I’ve attached an example image below of what I’m hoping to do— add a small excerpt with a different color background, perhaps a photo, and icons with links. I’ve tried to do something like it with basic WordPress blocks, but to no avail.
​
I don’t know what this is even called or what the first step for going about this would be. Would it be custom coding or a plugin? What would be the first move to try this out on my blog? Thanks!

You can do this with blocks. Add Columns, give them a background colour, add an image to column 1, text with social icon block below to column 2.
It’s called an “author box” and there are plugins to add them to your posts.
