In the comments section of Custom Genesis Featured Posts Widget plugin tutorial, a user asks:
First of all, thank you for this plugin!
However, I’ve been busy the last two hours trying to move the entry-meta above the title…to no avail! Could someone please point me in the right direction. Where to pass the $args[‘before_title]? Or should it be $before_title?
Entry meta appear can be moved above the entry title in the output of Genesis Featured Posts widgets by switching the code blocks for them in the Custom Genesis Featured Posts Widget plugin’s file.
Step 1
Install and activate Custom Genesis Featured Posts Widget plugin.
Step 2
Edit class-custom-featured-post.php.
Replace
if ( $instance['show_title'] )
echo genesis_html5() ? '<header class="entry-header">' : '';
if ( ! empty( $instance['show_title'] ) ) {
$title = get_the_title() ? get_the_title() : __( '(no title)', 'genesis' );
