Yes, you definitely can.

When you create content type in Cobalt, you set what subscription have to be used to make article featured. Then you can even in section set to show featured articles first in the list despite the order.

Every featured article will have class article-featured. It is placed in different HTML tags depending on template. You can format that class with CSS. Just use firebug to find it.

If you want to add your own class. edit template and add to any HTML tag

class="featured) echo ' article-featured' ?>"

Or any other class name.

PS. This article-featured class is added in upcoming release. Please wait few dais or use method above to add your own class.

I meant that the code will be start from scratch. We have never performed this as you.

The main idea that Emerald and Cobalt doesnt connected via classes or id of the subscription. Cobalt doesnt influence on the work of the Emerald but does. When somebody opens link system plugins checks if this link restricted. So there is no easy way customize highlighting articles.

I made a syntactic error.

Cobalt doesn`t influence on the work of the Emerald but does.

There should be

Cobalt doesn`t influence on the work of the Emerald but Emerald influence on the Cobalt
