Hi pastor_healer, I hope this is of some help.
I’m not quite sure what you mean by “order the posts” on your homepage using staff picks. To be honest I hadn’t used the staff picks feature in the Fooding theme until I read your post but it seems that the only thing that staff picks does is let you choose (by tags) which featured images to display in the row of images at the bottom of the page.
For example, on a friends blog that I’m helping out with I have now set staff picks to only display the featured images from posts with the tag “Recipes”. http://frugalonfood.soblog.me There doesn’t appear to be anything to do with ordering and of course the order that your posts appear on the front page is controlled by the date they were published.
Or have I misunderstood completely?
Hi @pastorhealer,
You can open template-parts/content-staff.php then add order parameter in $args array :
