I can achieve this by modifying flexicontent core files. But I dont want to do it by changing core files. Is there any other possibility..??

Hello

already implemented

for category view you can have
- initial filter values (after category view loads, then user can override them)
- locked filter values (these user cannot override and if filter is not display then it is also hidden)

the above parameters exist inside:

in component configuration, "Category View" TAB / "Search-Filter Form" TAB / Field Filters TAB
in category configuration "Search-Filter Form" TAB / Field Filters TAB

in category menu item "Search-Filter Form" TAB / Field Filters TAB
in multi-category menu item "Search-Filter Form" TAB / Field Filt

NOTE: usually you will not set this in component, or in category configuratio
-- instead you will set it in category MENU item !!
thus you can create custom filtered views of your category / categories

NOTE:
if you want to lock 2 or more values of a field
then besides configuring the above
-- you also need to go to the field configuration and select a MUTLI-value display !!
the above is required even if the field is hidden !!
