The HWCOE Mercury theme has several custom page and post options that affect their appearance.
Page/post templates
Choose which template your page or post displays in the Summary panel at the top of the Page or Post Inspector.
Default template
The basic page or post template. Full width; does not automatically display the page/post title or featured image. You’ll need to build all copy, meta information, navigation, titles, and other content in the Block Editor using WordPress and Mercury blocks.
The default template is the most flexible and will let you get the most out of the Mercury theme.
