FLEXIContent - v2.0.0 - final for J2.5 released (r1648)

Forgot to mention the category description and category image thumbnails in directory view and in directory view and universal module , i have updated the above listings.

The new directory view is much more attractive and the category listings with or without items in universal module, have a very nice result.

Does that mean I can have a module that links to categories (like a menu tree module)? If yes, how does it work. I played with the module and could not make this work. It always shows items not categories.

No category tree !
This is the output for all templates:
Category 1 info (title, thumbnail, description)
Items List of Cat 1
Category 2 info
Items List of Cat 2
Category 3 info
Items List of Cat 3

You must enable the new option at the top of the paramters:
Apply configuration per category
read the description (or is it missing from the language file???):
[attachment=2:74dp1z1x]<!-- ia2 -->cat_list_01.png<!-- ia2 -->[/attachment:74dp1z1x]
now e.g. 8 items will appear for all categories you select in Categories scope:
[attachment=1:74dp1z1x]<!-- ia1 -->cat_list_02.png<!-- ia1 -->[/attachment:74dp1z1x]
or select Category of currently displayed item:
[attachment=0:74dp1z1x]<!-- ia0 -->cat_list_03.png<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:74dp1z1x]

-- To display only categories set items number to ZERO

Search index you can create but there is no-indication of when the search index has finished because progressbar never stops !!! (but you can let it run for 10 seconds per 100 items , e.g. 60secs for 600 items and then click to stop (usually 20 secs should be enough)) and then try to use ...

The Fleximodule is VERY powerful. Very. I will continue to play around with it. Just one question for the moment. Hoe can I get rid of the "More category items" display?

Rooney

The parameter this: "Show readmore"

-- is inside the slider "Display parameters for CATEGORIES (used by all Layouts)"
-- and under the group of parameter: "Image parameters" ...

I should have put a new group for it "Read more" for this and allow add more params like custom "read more" text (filter via JText::_()) by there were too much changes that i neglected it.

I will add it along with the new styled field hits and voting

If you have not done already, please leave review in JED
