Could you expand on the definition/logic of Featured Topics. I am trying to ‘shape’ what posts will appear on my homepage on day 1 (these have been seeded by the admins).
The featured view certainly include the pinned posts but seems to (randomly?) select other non-pinned posts for inclusion ( if no pinned posts are in the category?).
Note I am not trying to add Featured Topics to top of page as per https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-add-a-featured-topic-list-to-your-discourse-homepage/132949. I am simply trying to control what presents under the desktop category page style/Categories with Featured Topics view.
