Devin,

 

I have talked this over with the team and we do, in fact, wish to proceed with this feature.  In addition to opting for the news story to be on the homepage or not, we will have another field called Featured News Story, which will bump the story to the top, regardless of date.  But your suggestion will be helpful for some customers that wish to have only a couple news stories on the homepage -OR- move a news story into the archive and get it off the front page because an event has already passed.

 

Thank you for your feedback.

Tyler

Great. This is good news! Thanks for the reply.
