# “Featured” category doesn’t display

 * Howdy,
 * I’m kind of a wordpress newb, so forgive me.
 * I’m creating a photoblog and the front page has multiple loops pulling images
   from different categories:
 * Featured
    Photographer Interview Project of the Week Photo of the week
 * The odd bit is, I have a category named “Featured” and it refuses to display 
   the post. All of the other categories work just fine. The REALLY weird part is
   if I make a new category and replace the featured call in the loop, it works 
   fine.
 * Is there some sort of weird process WordPress does for a generic category like“
   Featured” i am not aware of?
 * Thanks

 * A basic WP install does not have a “Featured” category. Not does it do anything
   with such a category. This kind of display is completely theme (or plugin) dependant.
   I can only suggest that you check your theme’s template for your front page.
