-# Featured posts
-
-You can enable featured posts with the following config:
-
-```yaml
----
-Name: featured-posts-blog-config
----
-Blog:
-  extensions:
-    - BlogFeatureExtension
-
-BlogPost:
-  extensions:
-    - BlogPostFeatureExtension
-```
-
-This will enable a checkbox in the CMS, with which you can feature blog posts:
-
-![](_images/featured-posts-cms.png)
-
-By default, the template will show the most recent featured post at the top of the
-list of posts in a blog. This post will be removed from the normal list of blog posts.
-You can increase the number of specially-displayed feature posts by modifying the
-template to show more, and by changing the following config setting:
-
-```
-<% if $CanHaveFeaturedBlogPosts && $FeaturedBlogPosts %>
-	<% loop $FeaturedBlogPosts.Limit(10) %>
-		<% include FeaturedPostSummary %>
-	<% end_loop %>
-<% end_if %>
-```
-
-```yaml
-BlogFeatureExtension:
-  excluded_feature_posts: 10
-```
