Create a featured post section at top of Ruby theme

Themes
1

Im looking to modify the Ruby theme a bit by making all of the posts look the same (don’t make featured posts show full image). Instead, I want a featured post section at the top of the page which shows them in a carousel method. Any ideas how to accomplish this? I know I need to modify the code a bit but need a point in the right direction. Thank you!

I’d take a look at Ease, which has a carousel – that should give you a good example for how to do it!

Im assuming its not just copy the featured-posts.hbs file over and adding this to the Index:

{{#if @custom.show_featured_posts}}
        {{> "featured-posts"}}
    {{/if}}

I see there is a bunch of javascript files too names owl carousel. Any help is appreciated as im new to this sort of thing.

That’s a good start, but yes, you’ll also need to load owl carousel, and the styles that support it.
