Just updated while moving to 1.4.0, everything works just a small theme issue
Porta shows "Invalid Date" next to the username, fixed it with a custom theme for now

@yariplus Thanks for this great plugin. I have an idea, but I don't know if it will work. Could you give your thoughts on this?
Goal: Lists topics lists that include a thumbnail picture, snippet of text, topic author, topic date, number of comments.
Most of this can easily be done. The only thing in question is making the thumbnail. I thought of the following process:
Step 1: Topics always start with an imgur url image file
Step 2: That imgur url is then pulled out of the topic content using regular expressions and resized using this plugin https://community.nodebb.org/topic/2677/nodebb-plugin-image-sizer-image-resizing (this is done within a custom template inside featured topics extended). This would allow anyone to control the image shape - it could be a square, wide rectangle, tall rectangle, etcDoes this make sense? Do you think this is doable?

@yariplus This is a really good idea, and the initial introduction says lots of things do not work and it is WIP, with that said, Is this still being developed.
I found an issues where only stuff you feature under news list works, if I create a new list and feature things in there, it does not display the featured articles, could be just my usage of it. I can see the my featured article in my new list in admin, but when you click the menu button, nothing displays. You can only see featured articles in the default list.

@letsdothis Absolutely still being developed!
If I'm understanding you correctly, this is intentional. Only the
Newslist will appear on the home/front page. Any additional lists you make are featured inWidgetswhich you must place on a page from theadmin=>extend=>widgetsmenu after creating the list. -
