Would be nice to SCOPE the category view by extra fields, example:

1 - a FC FIELD SELECT with e follwing params:
0::coll%% 1::not coll%% 2::amsomw

We want to scout all articles from some cateogry where:
Colness=0

something like this would evelate flexi to another level.

:D

This is done by category filters,
We could add a parameter to the category menu item to preselect the values of some category filters

Yes this would be really useful to create custom category links

Yes this is a big difference of how to CONFIGURE FC, this is an example,:

How we do it right now
categories:
level1 - CARS
|_level2 - Homepage Featured
|_level2 - Promotion
|_level2 - Nissan
|_level2 - Ford

This way the user can SET an item to many categories and we can create many modules and menus and SCOPE by category.

The change we are talking will affect this way:
categories:
level1 - CARS
fields:
FC CHECKBOX - "featured"
FC CHECKBOX - "promotion"
FC SELECT - "BRAND"

This allows the categories to be so CLEAN :D the problem with this configuration in that the MENU VIEW does not allow to SCOPE by fields nether the MODULE.

So yes a preset of SCOPE by field is what we are talking about.

mmm, this is a good suggestion that involves rather little work

and i have similar news,

i have almost finished changes to allow the configuration of tags cloud module to be passed to the tags view

e.g. you can define extra fields to be displayed and other parameters too
