# Divider Separated Post List

> Blog post list of five articles as divider-separated rows with category badge, date, title, excerpt, and author, with no cover images.

A shadcn/ui block from the [@7ovr](https://7ovr.com) registry, listed on [shadcn.exchange](https://shadcn.exchange/r/7ovr/blog-2).

- Registry item: https://7ovr.com/r/blog-2.json
- Categories: blog
- Listed: 2026-10-13, source last changed 2026-10-13

## Install

```bash
npx shadcn@latest add https://7ovr.com/r/blog-2.json
```

Run it in a project that has shadcn/ui set up. It adds the files below and installs what they depend on.

## Dependencies

- npm packages: `@base-ui/react`
- Registry items: `avatar`, `badge`, `button`, `separator`

## Notes from the registry

Requires a `base-*` style in components.json (the `shadcn init` default). Legacy `new-york`/`radix-*` styles install Radix primitives, which reject the `render` prop this block uses.

## Files

### `registry/blocks/blog/2/blog-block.tsx`

```tsx
import { Avatar, AvatarFallback, AvatarImage } from "@/components/ui/avatar"
import { Badge } from "@/components/ui/badge"
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
import { Separator } from "@/components/ui/separator"
import { IconPlaceholder } from "@/components/icons/icon-placeholder"
