Review how to use display modes across multiple content types.

Display Modes let site admins create reusable presentations of content entities.

Display modes (found at admin/structure/display-modes) exist to provide different presentations of Content Entities for either viewing or editing. The two types of display modes are "view modes" and "form modes." Both of these display mode types—view modes and form modes—are examples of ""

You can create different types of views modes. Navigate to admin/structure/display-modes

If you click on View modes you can see the default view modes for content and custom blocks. You can even make your own.

A common view mode is "teaser."

You can then create a view and use view modes instead of specific fields.

To change the view mode click on the display mode and pick the view mode you wish to display.
