Adds a featured post management page for site admins who can input a sitewide feed address, then select posts via a checkbox. Also includes a widget to disply posts on the main (or any) blog.
We recommend using the <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-sitewide-tags/" rel="ugc">Sitewide tags plugin</a> in WPMU, then placing the feed address from the tags blog in the admin menu. Otherwise, any blog feed can be used.
A widget is included. You can also code the output in your theme with <code><?php ra_featured_show($how_many, $read_more, $show_avatar); ?></code> where
<pre><code>$how_many = how many posts to show - default 1
$read_more = add read more link - default show link
$show_avatar = show author avatar - default show avatar
</code></pre>
Also includes a shortcode with parameters where values & defaults match what is above
<pre><code>[ra-featured howmany=1 readmore=1 showavatar=1]
</code></pre>
