Featured Posts and Categories

The “Featured Posts” are displayed by tags, the post need to have the tag “featured”.

First make sure that you’ve added properly the tag “featured” so make a test to see if the tag added exists: like this http://yoursite.com/tag/featured/
If will show “featured-2” is because a category with the same name “featured” was created, if that’s the case you’ll need to delete both and after that create again the tag “featured” or you can change the tag like “mypost”, “postslider” etc. to do that, open this files:

• frog-wp/template-blog1.php
• frog-wp/template-blog2.php
• frog-wp/template-blog3.php
• frog-wp/template-blog4.php

<?php  query_posts( array( 'post_type' => 'post', 'tag' => 'featured', 'posts_per_page' => $smof_data['featured-posts'] ) );  ?>

Now change the tag “featured” with a different tag, save the files and upload them via FTP. The Number of posts can be changed via Theme Options > General Settings > Featured Posts.
