 * I Have a homepage with a large featured post slider and below I have other posts,
   all these posts on the hompage are a mix of 4 categories, in every category i
   have also featured post slider and other posts but only from that category.
 * How can i make a new post for a specific category and get an option to set it
   to be a featured post with extra fileds options because the featured post slider
   has a large image, i dont want to upload for every post a large image only for
   the ones i want them to be featured.

 * Its a custom theme, and im trying to make this work but im not sure how.
 * I hope i wrote clear, bascally i need this :
 *  new post -> select category -> select to be a featured post -> get extra custom
   fields for the featured post -> publish
    (if not selected to be a featured post
   its a normal one without extra custom fields and goes under the main fetaured
   post slider)
 * On the home page : all featured posts to be shown from all cateogries
 * On the category page (for example food) to be shown featured posts for only that
   category.
 * So the home page is the same as the categories pages just the homepage is all
   categories in one.
 * I hope I’m clear.
 * Thanks!
