Features 68.1

[jeffreybarry]

Are there going to be featured content for this upcoming issue?

Not too difficult to program in squares at bottom of page.

3 boxes. grid image (gerald the re-enactor) with an evocative text

Should box border be colored the same as the featured image for the issue? Or default to gray/black?

Go with grid of 3 bootstrap images with text underneath

[jeffreybarry]

Setup Bootstrap grid with 3 cards (images and text below image). Content is pulled from a set of posts.

Loop through categories for "Feature" and display last three.

NOTE: the number of features displayed should be 3. The code defaults to the number specified in Settings>blog pages show.

The number is not set in the code. Perhaps it should be in the future to prevent too many features from displaying.

Extra number of features will simply fill the grid, thereby making each feature smaller in width.

How will images be handled? Set as featured image for that post? Will they size appropriate to the grid, which is fluid?
