entered “true” for the value. Then when it is no longer

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>Hi. I am an Editor at the blog BlueMassGroup.com/ The platform we use
right now, SoapBlox, allows anyone to write a new post (not a comment).
Those go into a queue displayed on the far right column called
"Recent User Posts." The Editors can then promote those to the
main column, so they get more attention. I'd like to know (1) If WP can
handle promotions like that, and (2) If yes, if promotions can be made to for
example Column A or Column B depending on what the promoter wanted to
highlight. Quotations welcome if this will require new coding. Thanks!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
