Hi,

Please you update to the latest version 4.0.6 for fixing this issue.

thank you

Thank you for your response, the issue seems not fixed with 4.0.6. I have exactly the same problem.

featured disable ---> i can see sort by featured
featured enable----> can't feature photo

in too case, error 500 (blank page)

well, this is the fix for blank page
open this file components/com_community/models/photos.php, find this :

$query .= " ORDER BY (`id` IN (".$featuredAlbums.")) DESC, id ";

if($featuredAlbums){
                    $query .= " ORDER BY (`id` IN (".$featuredAlbums.")) DESC, id ";

                }

$query .= ' AND `id` IN ('.$featuredAlbums.')' ;

if($featuredAlbums){
                    $query .= ' AND `id` IN ('.$featuredAlbums.')' ;
                }

and regarding featured options is a bug from us, which the photos filter is not respected the configuration

Thank you it work for blanck page. whiting for 3.0.7 for other issue :)

4.0.7 :)
