    Hi,

    I’ve configured the settings to have featured businesses appear first in search results and follow the documentation.

    It appears to not be working. e.g. I have a plumbing business who is a featured listing and is not appearing when the tags on the listing are searched. Here is a listing that is featured: https://www.atozpages.com.au/places/australia/queensland/shailer-park/plumbing-1/bass-plumbing-qld/

    thanks

    Search results are always sorted by relevance for search keywords in title/description/category and tags. If they are featured they receive a ‘boost’ but they are not vaulted to the front of the results.

    Sorting by featured is possible with GD Listings (show featured only) or in the CPT Sorting options.

    CPT Sorting applies to CPT Archives like /places/ and sorting options are shown in the GD Loop Actions element as a drop down select to sort the results.
