What to change first
Replace the sample text, then add or remove complete sections in List View. This pattern contains no photographs. Check long headings and paragraphs on a phone after replacing the sample copy.
The signature moment
The summary label sits across the rule from its three points
An article summary with a short heading in a left column and three substantial takeaways on the right. An introductory line and bold opening statements show how a useful summary reads with realistic explanatory text.
Theme handoff
What comes from where
From your theme
The theme supplies the typeface, heading leading and weight, link treatment, and spacing scale. Colours use contrast and base fallback chains ending in core black and white. Incidental uppercase labels start with role-label. Structural borders use currentColor. No accent carries text.
Set by this pattern
The composition and its relative widths are authored. Body copy uses the medium preset with a readable clamp fallback and 1.6 line height. Section headings use x-large; smaller headings use large. All headings state their own ink chain. Narrow groups keep the theme's content measure. Columns stack below WordPress's mobile breakpoint; automatic grids reflow according to their minimum track width. There is no fixed-height reading area.

Theme behaviourInheritance, fixed decisions and contrast
What it inherits
The theme supplies the typeface, heading leading and weight, link treatment, and spacing scale. Colours use contrast and base fallback chains ending in core black and white. Incidental uppercase labels start with role-label. Structural borders use currentColor. No accent carries text.
What it decides
The composition and its relative widths are authored. Body copy uses the medium preset with a readable clamp fallback and 1.6 line height. Section headings use x-large; smaller headings use large. All headings state their own ink chain. Narrow groups keep the theme's content measure. Columns stack below WordPress's mobile breakpoint; automatic grids reflow according to their minimum track width. There is no fixed-height reading area.
Display type
Small labels and narrow supporting copy keep a clamp from 15px to 16px. Uppercase labels use 0.08em tracking. No heading uses a display size outside the theme's ladder.
Contrast and verification
All reading text, labels and links are held to 4.5:1. Large headings are held to 3:1. The scoped verify:pattern run checks editor validity at both supported WordPress targets, responsive layout, colour contrast and theme renders. The verification sheet is under .wp-verify/sheets/article-takeaways-list/sheet.png.
Technical notesBlock mechanics, responsive behaviour and constraints
Where to paste it
Paste into a post or page's content area. This is an editable content pattern, not a Single Post template. Your theme supplies the post title, date and site header; this payload has no duplicate h1 or dynamic post-context requirement. It works with ordinary core blocks and needs no companion plugin.
Sample content
This is an article-end summary, so the sample stays shorter than an article body. Each takeaway has a bold point and a complete explanation that makes sense when scanned independently. Replace the points with conclusions from the post it accompanies.
The markup
Core block markup and nothing else. Copy it, then paste it straight into the block editor: WordPress reads the delimiters and rebuilds the blocks.
