[solved]Using dynamic categories of Universal Content module

Hello

I'm using Universal Content Module (Select version) in articles and categories pages.

I want to give the list of all other articles in the same category.

As I have a lot of categories I'm using the dynamic behaviour for category selecting. I want to avoid the creation of a module for each category.

On an article page : no problem I get all others articles of the same category in a select field.

On a category page : I get nothing.

Is it possible to use the dynamic behaviour on the category page ?

The url is : koltora.net

thank you for advices

best regards

Michel

sorry category behavior isn't done

Is it expected to be done in the current development ?

Hello,

it was not done because it was mostly not meaningful,
and propably very easy to add

do you mean to show items of same category as current category being shown by the component ?

yes i think it's a good scope

do you mean to show items of same category as current category being shown by the component ?

Of course in most case it's unusefull to display twice the same information.

I think in my current case it's usefull :

I display in the site videos (1 video is 1 article). In some categories I get more than 100 videos.
On each page 20 thumbnails of videos are displayed with the title of the video.

Some users know those videos and need to access as quickly as possible to the one they want to see.

I have added a 'select' Universal Module to give them the list of all the videos of the category.

It's displayed on the article page and it helps them to go from one video to the other.

They have asked me to display also this on the category page to avoid to open multiple page to get the searched one.

Hello,

see here:

github.com/FLEXIcontent/flexico ... /issues/84


Added in commit 9732b78

you may test and post feedback here

this was rather easy to add and have considered doing it in the past

Hello

I have copied the ed27c70f3007feffc279c1a78d13ee2b0c6653d1 commit (the last commit on github)

I don't see the module on the category page. On the article page it's OK.

exemple of page :

category page :

koltora.net/index.php/colloques (doesn't work)

article page :

koltora.net/index.php/colloques/ ... c41-ceylon (works, module name is videos similaires)

tell me if you need a superadmin access.

Hello

after you download (all module files)

you need to edit the module configuration and set a NEW parameter that enables "current category" in category view

did you do the above ?

Sorry
I'm afraid I have not found the update to do.

What I did : install the commit ed27c70f3007feffc279c1a78d13ee2b0c6653d1 from Github.

I have not understood if The update is to be done inside the UCM module or inside the parameter button in Flexicontent home page ?

thank you for explanations

Michel
