Thanks micker,
I have looked a little further based on what you have said.
The module dynamically displays the Featured items for each category when Category Scope is set to "All" and "Items In The Same Category" is selected - but only in the item view, not in the category view.
This is the behavior I need, but I would like them to show in the category view as well.
When changing the Category Scope to "include" relevant categories, the module disappears.
When "Category Scope" is set to all and "Items in the Same Category", when selecting "Current Item Scope" to include current item only - the module disapears in all views.
Selecting the Category Scope to default with "Current Item Scope" to include current item only - the module also disappears in all views.
Trying to force the module into a category view using php per
www.flexicontent.org/component/f
... ?Itemid=28
, makes no difference.
So, this would be fine if we had Category Scope set to "All" and "Items In The Same Category" selected - but with the module showing in the category view too, not just item view.
But how to do it!
