    Hi there,
    we’re using Connections (and I believe Gridder as the template) to display our Partners directory. We’d like to add a “Featured” Partners above the rest of the list, so our main partners are more prominent than the ones below.

    Is there a way to easily customize Connections to display a featured section above the rest?

    Thanks in advance,
    B

    Probably the easiest solution is the Custom Entry Order extension. With this you could set the order of the entries you wish to have list top and in a specific order.

    To set an entry to display at the top, you would set the entry order to 1. To have an entry show second, after the entry assigned to 1 you would assign that entry the order of 2. If there is no entry assigned as 1, then the entry assigned 2 would actually be first.

    That said, I would recommend setting order by 10’s or even 100’s. This will allow you the opportunity to insert entries in between others. For example having entries assigned orders of 100, 200 and 300 would display those entries in that order at the top. So you could insert an entry in between 100 and 200 by assigning the order as 150.

    Hope that makes sense!
