Featured Content block inside node I'm using Drupal 7 and trying to include the Featured Content block between the write up and the comments, i.e. I want it inside a node.

I tried the method explained here, but am not getting the block appear.

This is the code I've used in my node.tpl.php

$block = module_invoke('featured_content', 'block_view', '1');
print render($block);

The featured content block's URL contains this:

admin/structure/block/manage/featured_content/1/configure

Any suggestions? What could I be missing out?
As suggested in another post, I used this code:

$block = block_load('featured_content', '1');
$output = drupal_render(_block_get_renderable_array(_block_render_blocks(array($block))));
print $output;


This worked perfectly!
