Question..... Since I've got the Featured Threads page set as my site's index (home) page, the 'Featured Threads' link in the sub-nav bar is redundant. Is there somewhere to de-activate that link?

How do you disable a template modification?

Um, sorry for being dense, but where would I find that box? I kinda know how to uncheck a box already.

Nope, I unchecked the navigation and the quick_navigation_menu and the link's still there.

Have another look and ensure that you're selecting the template modification for CTA Featured Threads - see highlighed areas below:

Yea, it works I was just being impatient and was looking at a cached version of the page.

Kinda OT but as a future suggestion: it would be nice to be able to pull Featured Resources into the Featured Threads display locations. Maybe combine Featured Threads with Featured Pages, Featured Resources, etc.
Just a wish list
eta: The Featured Threads page is also a big hit. Looking sharp!!

One thing confuses me.
Having set featured thread page to be the home page, and add some text there into the template very thoughtfully provided (cta_featuredthreads_featured_custom_top) it is working very well as a portal.
However the link in the Forums sub navigation (featured threads) links to this home page, where there are no featured threads yet.
So this is a bit confusing for users. Even if I have some featured threads there they will be at the bottom of the page.
The exact same problem is on cliptheapex.com. If you click on Forums>featured threads, you get taken to the home page where there is a very nice home page, but no featured threads.

I don't really understand what it is you are saying.
There are currently threads featured on my site.
I can see them logged in and as a guest.
The link is there regardless of whether there are featured threads or not.
If there are no featured threads an appropriate message is displayed.
It works the same as the "New Posts" link in that respect.

Is anyone interested in Alpha/Beta testing the automatic featuring?
As it is largely untested, it would need to be on a test installation rather than a live site.
A prerequisite to being accepted for testing is that you would actually test the feature, essentially making sure everything works and trying to break it, rather than just wanting to get hold of the latest version.
