You can add this template to the Flexicontent Core. Also you may want to add an FAQ page about this topic.

Hello brandonking

We are currently developing a mobile app for a client. Part of the app functionality is a location search. In order to keep the list of locations and their info up to date in the app we wanted a mechanism for the app to read the information that is already contained in Flexicontent category and items.

So, we thought it would be interesting if I could just point to the category URL and get a JSON or JSONP response that nicely exported the some parameters of the category, and each item.

With this Flexicontent template, and the Joomla raw.php template we were able to achieve that as described in previous posts.
