    Hi!

    Unfortunately, this is not possible. Our plugin saves the set of featured posts as a WordPress option, which means only users with the manage_options capability (in other words, administrators) can modify it.

    The only solution is that you use a role/capability plugin and assign the manage_options capability to your editor. This will also grant him access to other plugins/settings in your WordPress, though, so be careful.

    Best,
    David

    Well I think that enabling manage_options capability for editors could be dangerous and insecure.
    Consider that managing featured posts is a typical editor task.
    Why don’t you consider a future version “editors enabled”?
