Get post format and use it as a CSS class in different spans
Every post has a maximum of one format and one status. To echo the format you need: if (get_post_format($post->ID)) echo ‘<span class=”format-‘ . get_post_format($post->ID); . ‘”></span>’; To echo the status you need this: if (get_post_status($post->ID)) echo ‘<span class=”status-‘ . get_post_status($post->ID); . ‘”></span>’; Hopefully this is what you need.
