    Hi,

    We’d like to show listings sorted by ‘Is featured?’ descending (for our ‘Culture’ and ‘Outdoors’ CPTs) and we’ve configured our settings accordingly – see screenshot_1 – however when we add a location, the featured listings are not shown first.

    To test, go to https://getaboutable.com and conduct a search for “Culture” in “canberra”, you’ll see the National Museum of Australia isn’t shown first (although if you leave location blank, it is shown first).

    Any idea why?

    Thanks,
    Andrew

    Featured is accounted for in relevance, ie, featured posts that match by keyword are more relevant because they are featured.

    Sorting options are not available for search results, which are always sorted by relevance or distance for near searches.
