    For this site – https://rmofcanwood.ca/

    I have added the featured content area at the top for the most current posts.  I had to turn on post ID and use the ‘Featured Post’ Category to get the positioning correct.

    I’d prefer to use Featured Category because that makes it easier to just change the category of the post when posts are no longer current, and assign them to an archive category.  However, when using the Featured Category they are not in the proper descending order (newest first) but instead the oldest (of current category) posts shows on the left position and the newer post shows on the far right position.   For displaying posts we would want the newest to show on the left.  I couldn’t find any setting that allowed this so for now I have resorted to assigning the posts using the post ID.   This is not ideal.  Can you point me to where I can reorder the featured content?

    @fireflywebs : I checked your site and it looks like you are using the outdated version of the theme. Please update the theme to the latest version and let me know if you are still having issues ordering the posts in featured content. The version of the theme that you are using is an older version and there are many security updates and bug fixes. I suggest you to update your theme to the latest version.

    Upgrading fixed the problems as category is now an option.   Thanks
