<h3>NS Featured Posts</h3>
<p>This plugin adds checkboxes for each list item. You can easily check/uncheck the Featured flag. Checking the Featured will set the meta value <strong>yes</strong> for meta key <strong>_is_ns_featured_post</strong>. You can choose which post types you want Featured functionality from plugin settings.</p>
<h4>Using in theme</h4>
<p>This plugin only sets/unsets the meta key for assigned posts. You need to implement it in your theme to get Featured functionality.</p>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre><code>$query = new WP_Query( array( 'meta_key' => '_is_ns_featured_post', 'meta_value' => 'yes' ) );
</code></pre>
<p>This will fetch the list of posts that are checked as Featured.</p>
