Improve Content Clarity and Readability with 3 Channel Updates

Thu, 30 Apr 2026 07:04:23 GMT

We've improved several channel features to help your blog posts, newsletters, and guides look cleaner and easier to read. Try applying these three updates to your site today.

## 1. Choose the Best View Mode for Your Content

You can now freely choose how your content is displayed, independently of the channel type. Customize the view mode to match your content's purpose, whether it's encouraging deep reading, highlighting visuals, or driving engagement through comments. Click the channel view name in the editor to change the display mode.

- **Blog Popup**: Ideal for long-form content like articles, essays, and interviews that require focused reading

- **Grid Popup**: Best for image-heavy content such as product showcases, portfolios, or travel posts

- **Forum Popup**: Designed for community-driven content where comments and discussions matter

- **Side Panel**: Great for guides or wikis where readers need to quickly browse multiple posts

## 2. Apply the "Blog" Article Style for Better Readability

We've introduced a new **Blog article style** with increased line spacing and lighter typography, making long-form content easier to read. Apply it to channels with text-heavy content like newsletters or blogs to create a more comfortable reading experience.

You can change the text style in the page settings panel on the right side of the editor, regardless of the channel type. (_The default "Note" style is still applied for shorter, lightweight content._)

## 3. Maintain Content Quality Without Unintended Draft Posts

Empty posts will no longer be created automatically in channels using the Side Panel. Now, a post is only created when you explicitly click **Publish** or **Save**, allowing you to fully draft your content before it appears. This helps you maintain a cleaner, more polished overall content experience. This applies both when creating new posts and when editing existing ones.
