Any ideas how to edit Highlighted content card templates?
Thanks for your inquiry Isaac Titlow.
At the moment we don't allow you to change the layouts (either by altering the cards, or adding your own new layout) in Highlighted content. We have a backlog item to allow you remap X field to Y position (e.g. field mapping), and one to allow you to add your own layouts (e.g. display templates).
It sounds like you'd like a third options, which is enable you to alter/augment/extend existing layouts shipped by Microsoft.
Any other ideas or specifics you need in this area?

John_Sanders Hi John, would love to have the ability to swap out "modified by" with another library column (or custom site column). For example if we are tagging documents with a custom column called "Content Owner" would be more meaningful. Though I realize that would cause issues if you are filtering on multiple libraries or sites that might not have that custom column.
Also, maybe the ability to "not" display "Modified By".

It would we nice to get rid of the edited by on the card view. Any progress on customizing these?

It would be nice to be able to create a template within the UI and/or code.
In the UI we build up the card template by adding/removing components and it saves some kind of json configuration, which could be exported and reused.
Creating custom templates and uploaded them with an app package would be nice too using the SharePoint extensions method.
