Hello currently i am fixing / testing these stuff (preparation and submission of filter form of filter module)

-- Flexicontent is Free but involves a big effort on our part.
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?
-- Add your voice to the FLEXIcontent JED listing with a 5-star...

i have a suggestion, include a menu id or category, to force when we select a filter out of flexi categories? You understand right?

EDIT:
i try implement my ideas, one of them is the force menu id.
I put some code working with sef, but no repecting (for now) validation in your code.

In Xml:

Code:

<field name="" type="separator" default="Teste" level="level1" menu="hide" />
			<field name="force_id" type="text" default="" label="Force ID MENU" description="" />

In default.php (tmpl):

Code:

<?php
		//IS sef or not
		$conf = &JFactory::getConfig();
		$is_sef = $conf->get('sef');

		// Force Menu ID
		$force_id = $params->get('force_id'); 
		$menu = JSite::getMenu();
		$menu_id_force_name = $menu->getItem($force_id)->alias;
		$menu_active = $menu->getActive()->alias;
		
		echo $cid;

	if($is_sef == 1)//use sef
	{
		if($isflexicat == 1)
		{
			$form_target = $menu_active;
		}
		else
		{
			$form_target = $menu_id_force_name;
		}
	}
	else //no use sef
	{

		$form_target = "index.php?option=com_flexicontent&amp;view=category&amp;cid=". $cid ."&amp;Itemid=204";
	}

	?>

Is no complete, i share with you this "idea" to help. If you wish, use the code, change him, whatever

EDIT2:

The new version of filter, in module filter config, the option Single or Default Category have a bug. You choose the category but when you save, category disappear, and the field on website, goes every time to the first category, probably because he never take the id of default category (?).

One more, when you are in category, you filter by something, and click the menu to that category, the link clean the filter_X=Y, but the last result of last filtering stay

1. About single or current Category, it needs some fixing

2. plus it needs parameters for adding some CUSTOM text inside the module, you see you need to show some message to the user about the form target category etc

3. Note that cleaning up parameters of the form was not trivial, in the end i think we made best choise,

4. about force menu item selection, just i don't see what you are trying to do with this code,
you want to activate a specific menu item (set in parameters), right?

about number one, in xml i change to select, and works.

about the number four, yes like fc universal module, you have that option. But if you use a default category the effect is the same.
