Wordpress - Featured Article

Craig Dawber · 06-16-2009, 09:43 AM

Hi warrior's,

I'd like to put a featured article slider on my blog like John has on the site below.

I Make Money Online by Telling People How I Make Money Online - John Chow dot Com

Does anyone know where I get this plugin from?

Hi Craig,

This is usually a two step process, of:
1. Finding a suitable plugin to mark articles as featured,
2. Modifying your present theme to pull in the featured articles from said plugin.

HOW TO: WordPress Featured Articles ? PaulStamatiou.com provides a good explanation with an example. I'm aware that some specific themes provide this functionality anyway (the Revolution ones certainly do).

Hi there,

Thanks for replying.

This actuallly doesn't help as the article tells you to go to this page to download the plugin oneslistening.com as you can see this domain is now for sale.

Thanks anyway.

Does anyone else know how to do this?

I can't vouch for them - but

Featured Articles WordPress Plugin | CoolWebDeveloper.com

It's the first one's I got from Google, and there seem to be a few more.

The only other ones I have seen have been part of a theme.
