Featured
The FWRE Featured addon adds a Featured flag to properties, letting you pin promoted or highlighted listings to the top of results and display a visual badge on their cards.
What Featured Does
- Premium listings — mark promoted properties so they always appear before regular listings, regardless of your default sort order.
- Editor's picks — highlight select properties such as new construction or agency showcases with a Featured badge.
- Homepage widgets — the Latest module and Layout Anywhere module can be configured to show only featured properties.
Featured Settings
Go to Settings → Addons tab → Featured to configure the addon's global behaviour.
| Setting | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Featured on top | No | When enabled, featured properties always appear before non-featured properties in listings, overriding any other ordering setting. Featured properties are sorted among themselves by the default order; non-featured properties follow. |
Marking a Property as Featured
In the property list (FW Real Estate → Properties), click the star icon in the Featured column to toggle the status instantly — no need to open the property. Alternatively, open the property edit form and use the Featured toggle in the publishing panel.
There is no limit on how many properties can be marked as featured.
Frontend Display
Featured properties display a Featured badge on their property card. The badge appearance — ribbon or label — depends on your active design template. When Featured on top is enabled in settings, these properties always appear at the beginning of the listing page.
The Latest module and Layout Anywhere module both include an option to display only featured properties, making it straightforward to build a curated homepage section without manual shortcode filtering.
To install this addon, open the Add-ons panel inside FW Real Estate. See Getting Started → Add-ons for details on free addons, paid addons, and site verification.
