This helps you highlight a post, or mark it so you remember is important. For example, you might have tons of pages, but are always editing one or two. In that case, star those pages, and they’ll be easily recognizable in your list of posts. If you’ve used Gmail before, you’re very familiar with this feature. Similar to that email client, this plugin let’s you click on a star in your list of posts, pages and custom posts to ‘star’ it. The plugin works out of the box, but you also get some configuration options to help you customize it to your workflow. **Configuration Options** * Rotate between 12 different “stars” * Drag and set the orders of your stars * Enable/disable this feature for any post type in your WordPress install * Decide whether you want stars to be visible to every one, or in a per user basis. **Other Features** * You can display only starred posts by using the “Stars” filter available at the top of the posts list. **This plugin requires WordPress 3.8 or higher** ## Screenshots * [[ * Starred Posts in the “All Posts” screen * [[ * Filter activated to show only one type of starred posts * [[ * Settings page ## Installation 1. Upload the Starred Posts folder to the plugins directory in your WordPress installation 2. Activate the plugin 3. Go to your posts or pages list in the WordPress admin. You should see little stars to the left of each post title. 4. Customize the plugin by going to Settings>Starred Posts in your WordPress admin ## FAQ Admin Starred Posts plugin is activated, but I don’t see any stars in my posts list First make sure the feature is enabled for the post type you want to use. You can set this in Settings>Starred Posts. You can also check if the Stars column is enabled in the post list. Go to “All Posts” in your admin, and click on “Screen Options” on the top right corner. There you can choose what columns you want to display. Make sure “Stars” is checked. Click“ Apply” after you make any changes. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/3c4a254315c8d59310a69062011d85486efb6217d3301862d859626a52bf0f92? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[I absolutely love this plugin!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-absolutely-love-this-plugin-6/)󠁿 [karisletten](https://profiles.wordpress.org/karisletten/) January 26, 2023 This plugin is so useful for managing site wide updates and status of pages especially when working with a group- which are done, which need attention, which haven’t been started. I install it on every site I’ve ever worked on, so I’m probably responsible for at least a hundred of the active installations. Please keep it updated and tested!! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e6f414bcf3e60a0e28a300af720731045e25dafda5ea60e4bbc99fe00490feb1? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Very useful plugin!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-useful-plugin-1014/)󠁿 [saeed](https://profiles.wordpress.org/saeedr/) August 8, 2020 Very useful plugin!

Some feature enhancements like adding from post edit page with a note will be great. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/381acb812869e99d35c566d6360cb3e14fcabc06f8d092f79c9e8e66f573567c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[simplicity and easy to use](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simplicity-and-easy-to-use/)󠁿 [novatliz](https://profiles.wordpress.org/novatliz/) July 29, 2019 Nice plugin. Thanks for its simplicity and easy to use. Will be great if able to mark the post on the post editor itself. Hope to see this in the new version soon.

I searched loads of plugins which were too bloated or buggy before i found this little gem. Simple, works and solves my problem perfectly. The only feedback I would give to the author is to expand the functionality a bit, if possible, to offer more options/ settings etc. But thanks a ton to the author!! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/2ad809959fb7c1e8824ae3338f0ee87458a68cfee3fba9260dae7d29d60d8c9d? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Very usefull for Admin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-usefull-for-admin/)󠁿 [Gregoire Noyelle](https://profiles.wordpress.org/aglekis/) September 3, 2016 Hi Great tool thanks. Just two thing. That’s a little slow to add or remove start and if you have many choice, it take time to remove.
