How to choose featured posts in a category page ?

Hello,
I’d like to choose which posts will appear on top of the category page. I don’t see anything in the category settings in theme panel, and nothing else in the post himself.
Also, I don’t have any featured category, I think I have read something about, I’m not sure how it works. Is there a “featured” category?
Thank you.

Hello emmalabbe,

The theme does not have any such an option in the panel that allows you to change the big grid category filter. Another alternative would be to create a category template from Cloud Library because using this way you can customize your category page using the TD Composer. There you can add any Big Grid you want at the top of your page and filter it after the available options, like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/A4bxPUEtBylL You should read ur documentation from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-cloud-library-plugin/ regarding on TD Cloud Library option.

Thanks for your understanding!

This is amazing ! Thank you for the info, however now I’m wondering if I chose the right option : in order to design my category pages, I created one new page for almost each category and I replace in the menu the categories by these pages. Is there any problem doing that?

One last question : is the cloud library a heavy plugin ? and is it a free option ? (if I don’t use it a lot, maybe it’s better not to activate it…)

Thanks again.

And I add one thing to my previous comment : There is a “featured” sort order choice in the filter of the blocks, where can I decide which post will be in this filter?

Hello emmalabbe,

The Cloud Library is not a heavy plugin if you will read and understand the functionality from our documentation from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-cloud-library-plugin/

You should use the post ID filter option from here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/bbRCzqMt

Thanks.
