  From the detailed themed description page at http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/opti/

  Featured Content
  Opti includes support for Featured Content – allowing you to control what content appears in the top box on the homepage of the site. The 4 most recent posts tagged as featured content will be displayed in a slider on the homepage. To enable the slider simply select the post tag you want to use and enter it on the “Appearance → Customize → Featured Content” page in the Featured Content area. Then, just tag up the posts you want to be flagged as special and Opti will add them in automatically.

  I may be misunderstanding; isn’t “featured content” the article featured at the top of the page, in the box? I want to change the “featured categories,” which are listed down the left side of the page. I tried using the “Featured Content” to do this; it did not work. Right now, we have “Reality,” “TV News” and “Drama;” I want to change it to “TV News,” “Hot Topics” and “Reality.” Thanks!
