Description
The GravityView Featured Entries Extension for WordPress helps you highlight specific listings inside a GravityView “View.” By marking entries as Featured, you can draw attention to the most important results for visitors browsing your directory, listings page, or search-style layout.
Featured entries are automatically placed at the top of the search results and visually highlighted, improving scanability and making it easier for users to find what matters most. If you’re running a paid directory, the extension also supports featured listings workflows so people can pay more to be promoted within your View.
