How to arrange the contents ?

Hello everybody

I am planning to build a multi-category and multi-content-type portal.

I want to have a subject/type matrix.
For example: In subject category "cars" I want to have record of various type like "car offers", "car sellers", "articles about cars" and "forum entries from section cars". Lets call this Y axis of the matrix.

On the X axis I want to have records of specific type but from different categories. For example filterable by category sellers or offers or articles from all categories.

I am trying with Flexicontent, because I have read this:

The main concept introduced by FLEXIcontent is "content types".

and this:
"Unlike most components, there is absolutely no logical connection between types and categories. Thus, a category can collect different types of elements."

in the Features > Content types.

However, when I started to setup I have a problem, because if the main concept is content types, why there is no menu type to make a listing of all records by one content type from all categories ?

It seems, like I have to make "type categories" assign content types to them and then make "subject categories" and assign all items to both categories. Is that right ?

Please give me some hints how should I do this.

Kind regards
Derek

... strange a category type ....
to do relation between two type use relation field
exemple
type car
type motor
you can do simple relation to link it ...
and after use category display and universal module to create your specific view

Hello

when you create a MENU ITEM of category , you can specify to be limited to SPECIFIC content type, todo this

1. enable MENU ITEM parameter for overriding category configuration, leave everything to "Use Global"

2. Go to filters settings and enabled "locked filters" and set a locked filter for DOCUMENT TYPE
