<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Not for nothing but how frequently do you want those featured sites to change? I would just do it manually since it would only take me ~15 mins to select the sites, generate screenshots and quick blurbs and post up on a central page. I would probably only change it once a month or less. Just a suggestion :)<br><br></div>Ben Bakelaar<br></div>School of Communication and Information<br></div>Rutgers University<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><p><span style="font-family:Tahoma,sans-serif"><font color="#666666">-----------------------------------------------------<br>BEN BAKELAAR | IT Services<br>Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey<br>School of Communication and Information<br>p <a value="+18489328710">848.932.8710</a></font></span><u></u><u></u></p><p><u></u> </p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have been looking for a way to show off featured sites in our multi sites network:
<a href="http://commons.trincoll.edu/" target="_blank">http://commons.trincoll.edu/</a> <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I thought this would be easy to find – surely there must be a features sites plugin that uses the sites categories plugin right?<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I like the functionality at the Harvard site: <a href="https://blogs.law.harvard.edu/" target="_blank">
https://blogs.law.harvard.edu/</a> but would hope for more visuals.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Does anyone have a good suggestion?<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks<u></u><u></u></p>
