I’ve got the same problem, although I’m sure I saw a way to fix it and now can’t find it. I’ve got a workaround where I just create 2 versions of any pother I want to be featured and don’t use the featured tag on one of them but this isn’t really ideal.
I just tried this and it didn’t work, although I may not have done it properly.
I followed this path –
Dashboard > Appearance > Editor > pasted the code right at the bottom of ‘Arcade Basic: Stylesheet (style.css)’ > Update File
