Hello, on marketer template, on the right side bar, I would like to have featured posts that I manually select instead of recent posts, how can I do it please? Thank you
Hi there,
Marketer is using this plugin:
https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/recent-posts-widget-with-thumbnails/
Unfortunately it doesn't allow selecting of specific posts unfortunately.
You can try a plugin like WP Show Posts:
https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-show-posts/
thanks but it does not do the trick.
What is the issue?
If it doesn't do what you are looking for then you might need to do some research and find another plugin that works for you.
The issue is with the other plugin you told me it just shows excerp of article in a very ugly way without titles or anythinh. I would like something similar as the recent post plugin but for articles I would chose like editor's pick articles.
The plugin has some settings on what is displayed etc:
https://docs.wpshowposts.com/article/content-overview/
I would recommend going through the documentation.
If that still doesn't work for you then you will need to do some research and try a few plugins to see if any of them can meet your goals.
