Hello
On a site, I need to display on the home page, each week antoher a new article (weekly magazine) as home page.

Presently, I use the FC 'single item'. I need to change the menu value each week.

Is there an option in FC menu like the 'featured article' int the original Joomla article availability, to get automatically the page change each week ?

thank you for advices

best regards

Michel

Hello

assign your article to a special category named: "Special"


-- configure category to
a. show full text of articles
b. show 1 item per page
c. hide pagination, filtering, etc, etc
d. set appropriate ordering for the category
e. setup an appropriate template for this category, probably you would want to use a copy of the "presentation", since this template has a modular layout for the items


-- maybe also do these
a. you can set create this category "Special" inside the featured category sub-tree (select a top-level category that contains featured categories in component configuration)
b. you can edit Advanced Route Plugin and select to hide links to this "Special"


-- then create a menu item that points to the above category

I have hidden the category title in :
    the page of the category
    the parameter option in FC home page
    In the menu record used to display the category contents
.

I get always the title and the select list of ordering option.

Where do I need to search ?

thank you for help
