  Hi! I’m struggling with the featured content option of the Gazette theme. I already made 6+ posts, and gave them all a featured image + tag. What am I doing wrong?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Your page is set to private so I can’t see exactly what’s happening, but here’s the information provided for the Featured Content of the Gazette theme, in case you may have missed a step:

  The homepage features your choice of up to six posts or pages that are prominently displayed in a grid. Gazette displays your posts’ Featured Images prominently in both the Featured Content area and above post and page titles in the normal layout, quickly grabbing your reader’s attention.

  To set up the Featured Content area:

  1. Navigate to Customize → Featured Content.
  2. Choose a word to use as your Featured Content tag and add it in the text field. We suggest using a lowercase, single word, like featured.
  3. Click the Publish button to save changes.
  4. Create at least a few posts. For each post you’d like to feature, use the Tags & Categories area of the editor to add the tag you chose under Customize → Featured Content. With this theme, you can also tag pages to be displayed as Featured Content, in addition to posts.
  5. Add a featured image to each post or page you’re featuring.

  Check out the full Featured Content setup guide and video.
