Just catching up on old reading... Sorry it's been so long since you posted this. When in doubt, email me...

Here is the mod being referred to:

http://run-down.com/...s_sql_featured.shtml

However, the server is down for a few hours while everything is being moved to a new NOC.

I haven't tried setting up the featured_r tag to build in an existing template, but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work. In nph-build.cgi, uncomment this section of the mod:

###### This section for optionally printing via a template file ###########
#
# open (FEATURED, ">$LINKS{build_root_path}/$file") or die ("unable to open featured page: $LINKS{build_root_path}/$file . Reason: $!");
# print "\tFeatured Links: $total\n";
# print FEATURED &site_featured_template ( { featured_r => $featured_r } );
# close(FEATURED);

Then, in HTML_Templates.pm, change this line of the mod to the name of the template file (home.html?) that you want to build it into:

my $output = &load_template ('featured_sites.html', {

I did just notice an error on the page for the mod. I wrote "Column Name: Priority" in step 1 (must've accidentally copied it from the Priority mod). It should be "Column Name: isFeatured". Just thought I'd mention it in case someone runs across it before I update it in the morning after the server is back up...
