What's the procedure for getting a post, like this one, highlighted in the “Editorial” column on the right side of the page?

Actually all you have to do is check the appropriate box in the 'Highlights' section of the topic screen when you are posting, and it winds up there. The Sidebar Moderator decides whether it is worthy of staying where you posted it.

Thanks, bama.

I had no idea what that page was for.

From time to time I would check things on that page, then, when I tried to post, the program would stop me because I did not fill out a “Required” box.

So, I just type “news” or “chat” in there and ignore the “Choose” option.
