Show more 'featured'-tiles/grid/blocks on homepage

Someone coded around it for me with a child theme.

Hello

How did you achieve this? It is marked resolved but with no explanation on how to do it. I looked at your site and I want to do the exact same thing. Can you point me in the right direction?

I think i found it. I added this to functions.php in my child-theme:

function twentyfourteen_setup() {
	// Add support for featured content.
	add_theme_support( 'featured-content', array(
		'featured_content_filter' => 'twentyfourteen_get_featured_posts',
		'max_posts' => 100,
	) );
}
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'twentyfourteen_setup' );

Then, after publishing a new featured post, I got more tiles.

My version is not bug free yet. I had someone create a child theme but it’s not functioning properly yet (the homepage looks great, but only one posts is showing completely, the rest misses the content).

The infinite loader is from jetpack-light…

If I am ready I can try to help out!

My solution in the comment above led to a new problem: the disappearance of some screen options on the post-page (in the back-end).
I’m going to leave this for now (back to 6 tiles) and maybe get back to it later.

hi Dorus,
did you manage to solve this problem? I see the site you’re (were) working on is working with a bigger grid?
Can you share how you did it?
thanks.
