    Hey it would be great to be able to bulk edit all articles and add or remove the promote article option.

    weird that you cannot act on all article settings when bulk editing.

    HiJennifer Rowe,

    thanks for sharing about promoting articles for Guide (help center).

    We would like to show our most popular articles based on the highest number of page views, in our header dropdown and some sections in our Guide web pages.

    Is there a way to automate it instead of manual promotion? Like a template?

    An additional question, it is mentioned above, "Promoted articles might also appear by default on the home page, depending on your theme." how to know which theme would enable this? it would be extremely helpful to have this on the help center, thanks

    Hi Rebeca,

    We have an existing thread with recommendations from Team Diziana on thiscommunity post.

    Just copy and paste the below code at your home_page.hbs at the bottom and you can see all your promoted article would be showing on homepage:

    {{#if promoted_articles}}

    {{t 'promoted_articles'}}




    {{/if}}

    Note: The above promoted article code can be found in default Copenhagen Theme at Homepage file.


    Hope this helps!

    How can you change the Promote star icon to something else? Thanks!

    Hi Christina,

    You can change the icon that appears before the article title, however, you will need to make some advanced customization on the theme code. Please be advised that our team is unable to provide support for custom coding, you may reach out to your Developers or IT team for guidance on how to tweak the theme code.

    Sharing with you this response I found on thispostfromTeam Diziana(they're third-party Developers, and provide assistance with theme customizations) the answers on the post might give you an idea of where to make changes to the code.

    Thanks!

    I've added the promote functionality and my promoted articles appear on my homepage which is great. What I've noticed is that my side navigation is showing the promoted articles at the top of the menu, confusing the order in which the articles should be read.

    Is there a way to have the promoted articles displayed on the homepage but for it not to impact the order anywhere else? This is quite a big problem for our workflows.

    I also have another question regarding the star that's meant to appear next to the article; this doesn't show in my help centers - any idea as to why not?

    Thanks

    just working on my client's help center and found it IS possible to sort articles by position, regardless if some of them are promoted articles or not. You can do that using ZD's API sort option (sort by position). More details:

    你好,我是一个产品的作家,而不是开发者/工程师, so I don't have much technical knowledge. Is this straightforward to implement, or do I need to seek technical support?

    Thanks.

    Yes, frontend dev would be needed.
