Featured post or posts

Hi,

I can't seem to get the Featured Post option to work. I tagged some of the posts as 'Featured' and added two sections, that (I think) should display these posts. I tried this with all the posts and the featured section on the same Blog page and also with the posts and the featured section on a different subpage. Neither works.

I even tried to start a new website, where the template already has this, and it doesn't seem to work there either. The featured post that is already there in the template looks like it's featured, but if I tag another post as featured, nothing changes. I also don't know where to find this 'Summary' thing people are talking about, my interface looks totally different than in the Help videos.

I should also mention I'm not subscribed yet, still playing around with the trial. Help!
