 * I would like to find a way to control the format of how embeds of other WordPress
   posts appear. I use the standard WordPress embed function in the block editor
   and:
 * 1. Sometimes the format it presents is a huge featured image from the page that
   is overwhelming followed by a brief summary of the text from that page. See the“
   Related Articles” section in the following post for an example: /what-are-the-
   critical-skills-of-a-product-owner/
 * 2. Other times, the featured image is shown off to the side in a thumbnail size
   with a brief summary of the text from the page on the side of the featured image.
   See the “Related Articles” section in the following post for an example: /design-
   thinking-and-agile/
 * In style #1 above, the size of the featured image is overpowering and is way 
   out-of-place. I prefer style #2 but I don’t know how to control the style it 
   presents. I would prefer not to modify any WordPress files or write any PHP code.
   Is there another way to control this format?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcontrolling-embed-format%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
