What does this do?
This hack lets mods/admins to choose some threads as featured, enter a description (if no description entered the first post will be used) and they will be displayed at forumdisplay, in the position that the admin selected. Refer to the Features section below for more information.
Features
Admin Features
Absolutely NO template modifications and you even get to control where the table will be placed in Forumdisplay with a simple setting!
Fully phrased.
Ability to set a cutoff limit, so that if the featured threads are more than X, the rest will not show.
Ability to specify whether the featured threads will be ordered by the date they were featured, their last post date or their creation date.
Ability to specify whether html, bbcode, [img] tags or smilies will be shown in the description (or the first post if no description has been entered).
When featuring/un-featuring a thread, the action is logged in the moderator log.
A nice, usable and extensive manual instead of an ugly readme.txt ;-)
End user / moderator Features
Moderators can enter a fully formatted description with bbcodes and everything (if allowed by the admin)
The table is collapsible, and if it has nothing to display it doesn't show.
Thread elements that are displayed: Thread icon, Title, Link to the thread, creation date and time, number of replies (clickable), thread poster.
Don't forget to Mark as Installed!
Support will be provided only for a few days after each release.
Installation instructions and a FAQ are in the manual.

I installed the mod but, no options appeared I read the faq and yes, there are the comments on my Template :/ do I have to change some conditions to see it working on board managment?

same here - no options to feature the thread appear when posting a thread as pictured in:
I checked that all of the necessary code that is mentioned in the manual exists in my forum, and it does, yet nothing new related to this mod appears when creating a thread.
It isn't supposed to appear when creating a thread, but when editing a thread via the admin/mod options (Thread tools -> Edit thread).
This is because when making this hack, I pictured featured threads as already active threads with many replies, and not newly created ones.

Ok - I understand now - thanks for the explanation. sorry for not understanding earlier.
