Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

Overview

About this plugin

With this WordPress plugin, you can define a set of featured posts easily.

These featured posts can be added to your theme wherever you want via a widget.

The plugin is extremely simple, fast, and reliable. Once you have selected the

featured posts, they are saved in a cache, so that the amount of database

queries is kept to the minimum.

Custom Templates

0 let’s you define your own templates for displaying each related

post. Just create a directory named neliofp in your theme’s directory and

create the template you want to use such as, for instance,

php. When inserting the widget, specify that the template is

template-name and you’re ready to go!

Warning Remember to save your templates somewhere save before updating

your theme!

(In the directory template-examples you’ll find some examples).
