The “Featured Channel” option allows you to promote and provide a higher visibility to certain accounts form your user base.

Depending on the project’s requirements, the “featured channel” mark can be used to:

• Highlight accounts with high quality content form your user base
• Promote accounts in exchange for payment
• Organize the content based on the type of user
• Target specific users based on their interests (in development)

This feature was introduced in PHP Melody v2.6 and is part of the “Social Module”.
