Here's screenshot of the same article content above with the old formatting:

The two layout options are generated by blocks that are available by default on every WMS site, Articles - with thumbnails and Articles - Simple. Site Managers can activate these blocks by signing into their site, going to Structure > Blocks. Detailed instructions can be found in the .
