Hello there,
during my searches I found several content modifier plugins, that insert coloumns, boxes and other nice things. But I am looking for a way to customize how my blog posts are displayed in frontend.
- option to control the height of posts in the loop - option to customize and control position of post thumbnails - option to control which post elements are shown (meta, title, subtitle, comment count,...) - more Anybody here who knows a plugin for this?

I’d say a plugin like this doesn’t exist as every theme developer is going to use different class selectors and methods of displaying posts i.e. page templates/page builders/shortcodes etc. Unless the plugin is generating its own loop then it’s never going to play nice with third party themes.
You’re best attacking the page templates and stylesheets as everything you suggested is pretty basic stuff.

Ok, thank you. I am miles away from beeing a coder so I think, my special loop dream is miles away from me… ;(

Not necessarily. Although the best way is to get your hands dirty and build your own loops, if you’re looking for a quick fix, I’ve had some fun with this before http://pluginbuddy.com/purchase/loopbuddy/
