It is highly flexible in the way the lists are displayed( slider, list, theme default, or custom). It also provides a simple API for marking/ unmarking groups as featured. Features:- * Multiple groups can be marked as featured * Featured Groups can be displayed using shortcode or widget * Featured Groups can be displayed in a banner above the groups directory list, with a choice of grid or two list layouts (simple and full) * Featured Groups Can be displayed in the directory too * You can use multiple widget/shortcodes * Each shortcode/widget can be displayed as a list or a slider of groups. * A default theme view for groups list is also supported, It lists the groups using groups-loop.php from your theme * Easy API for marking a user as featured/removing group from the list of featured groups. For documentation, Please see the [plugin page](http://buddyuser.com/plugin-bp-featured-groups/). This is a fork of BuddyDev’s BuddyPress Featured Members, other than getting it to work for groups this plugin works in exactly the same way. ## Screenshots [⌊screenshot-1.jpg Widget⌉⌊screenshot-1.jpg Widget⌉[ screenshot-1.jpg Widget ## Installation 1.

Is that a problem with my theme or is that feature not added?
