How do I get my showcase featured on the forums? I’ve had my showcase up for about a month now and it hasn’t been featured yet.
Another question:
Does Epic Games favor UEFN maps for the forums and the Discover page rather than Creative maps?
When you say “featured on the forums,” do you mean getting it on the home screen of the Epic Dev Community under “forum highlights,” or are you talking about someplace else?
Yes, I do mean the home screen under forum highlights.
I don’t know exactly what gets a showcase featured or what determines the order in which they are featured, but I’ve got a good idea. From what I’ve assumed, there’s nothing you can do to get it featured yourself. Instead, a showcase will be featured by the staff if it is frequently visited by readers or has a lot of comments/likes. I have 3 showcases myself, 1 that is featured, and 2 that are not. The one that is featured has a special tag attached to it “STAFF-PICK-FN” that I did not put there. It is also my showcase with the most activity and also is my most polished project.
So in short, I think showcases get featured by the forum staff if they are well-polished projects, and if they receive a lot of attention by forum readers, in the form of views, likes, and replies. Also, I think their order on the home page is determined by their most recent replies.
