Ok, case:


A menu entry category (category A) with a universal flexicontent module associated (category B).

I need either:

Show on category view, Category A items that don´t appear on Category B. (better option)

Show on module, Category B items that don´t appear on the items shown on the Category view.

This case is basically to keep featured items (category b), separate from normal items.

Unless otherwise indicated:
Joomla 3.8.1
Flexicontent 3.2.1.7

Hello

i see,
yes this make sense, there should be a parameter for this in category parameters,

now, this can be done by
- adding a check inside a custom FLEXIcontent template

- another solution, would be do display ALL of them inside the category view (no module), and enable "content list markup" for featured categories in component configuration

The content list markup wouldn´t work because the new articles would hide the old featured ones and I´m interested on keep them visible.

Hello

regardless of module,

this maybe a common need (exclude items belonging to featured categories)

-- we have categories that are marked as featured, you are using this right?

-- i think we can add parameter to exclude items belonging to featured categories, made a note to test this
