Hi,

I use the module Latest News Enhanced Pro from Simplifyyourweb to display all articles in a category.
The module works fine, except when I use the module on a page with a content item of Flexicontent. Then nothing of that module is displayed.

I checked with the developer of the module; after examination he suggested to contact Flexicontent.

How can I solve this issue?

Tnx

Hello

hhmm, i really don't understand why developer would ask you this
- if developer would ask such a thing the developer should explain why

My answer:
i am only guessing that the developer asked you this, because developer needs some quick information on how to patch his/her code,
in many places the module code checks and display the article listing is:
- option==com_content
- view==article

1. We simply have no control over such module code, there is nothing that we can do on our side
2. To support flexicontent views , it is trivial:

Category view URL is (multi-item views):
option=com_flexicontent&view=category&cid=NNN

Item view URL is:
option=com_flexicontent&view=item&id=NNN

- The above (basic support) is completely up to the developer of the module
- Now for adding more support, and showing FLEXIcontent custom fields, see FAQ article:

Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

Hello,

The problem I have is a general problem. I'll make a new topic with a better description.
