 * Hi, not sure if it’s just me but I’m trying to set the featured argument to false
   but it doesn’t seem to work. Am I missing something?
 * I’m currently using [downloads featured=false]
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Ffeatured-false-argument-not-working%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * I’d expect that by using the argument [downloads featured=false] featured downloads
   wouldn’t show but this doesn’t seem to be the case and I’ve had to find a manual
   work-around. Am I missing something?

 * Hello,
 * Please note that the featured parameter is to be used only when you wish to display
   just the featured posts. It’s set “false” by default and that does not mean that
   the featured downloads would be hidden.
 * I hope that answers your query. Let us know if you have any further questions.
