no, featured is sorted by random, then last_update. The reason for this is so there is no "bumping" to give more views to the newest/latest featured item.

PHP:

'featured' => 'rand() %s, item.last_update DESC',

You could change this in the item model, however, it will effect anything that fetches based on "featured"

I may enhance the options in a later version that lets you choose other sort types (like I do with the slider for the home page), however, setting to recent (sort type) would display all items, not just featured. The model doesn't have functionality built in to fetch featured items by various sort types.

Thanks Bob, that option would be useful on my site sorted by featured then creation date.

Also, I think have found a small bug in 2.30 with the CTA integration. The item sidebar doesnt show images for the items on the homepage after integrating it via the options. The original one on the forum view however works fine?
