Hello

in item view we trigger
com_content.article

in category view we trigger
com_content.category

The plugin you are seems to be targeting only single article / single item view

Test this
Add plugin text to an item's description and
then create a Joomla category menu item (NOT a flexicontent category menu item)
does the plugin work in Joomla category view ?

Hello

I mean Joomla allows treating category differently than single view
... using a different event in category view

of course we could trigger the same event as single view in category listings,
but that is not proper

- please test with Joomla category view and not with K2 category view
- which plugin is it so i can make a quick test and tell you why behaviour is different in category view

after you test maybe we can add option (PER field) to use same event in category view
but doing the above by default is not good idea, as it will slow down your category view when you display 50 or 100 items

"- please test with Joomla category view and not with K2 category view" i have done that and on another site with K2 it does work on the two situations.
what is a "per field" ?
"but doing the above by default is not good idea, as it will slow down your category view when you display 50 or 100 items" so no solution .. mean the category view is not done for the kind of use ?

Hello

please answer the following
1. so does it work in Joomla category view ?
2. what is the plugin you are using


per field means we will add new option in the configuration of description and in text fields etc

- if we add this option per field, there will be no measurable slow down,
