what is 'featured items' in Universal content module

Hi,
Now I am using the universal content module to show articles. I am trying to show featured articles in the upperside of the module. I have just 2 featured. And I have no favourites. I am trying to get those featured in the upperside, but I can not see them. I just can get 2 articles, which are the ones having the oldest itemid for the published articles.

Can you tell me how to get my featured ones in that place? I suppose I am doing something wrong ...

Thanks

Hello

the "featured" items in module is not those flag with Joomla featured flag,

it would be better called:
featured items ---> full width items
standard items ---> items in 2 or more columns

- to answer your question, in order to list items marked with the featured flag, go to slider that contains the filtering SCOPES,
in there a featured SCOPE exist that you can use to select featured items

- since you can assign items to multiple categories, FLEXIcontent can have sub-tree of categories that are characterized as "featured", these you can assign in item form, and the use the category SCOPE of the module to list then

Thanks. You give always very professional answers !!!
I have not been able to solve from that slider. So I have used slider basic options. I supose that with time I will be able to take full advantage of you wonderful module !!
By the way, I would like to change the text color of the articlesas how it appears it is difficult to read. How can I do it? I can see that featured and current views are not exactly the same (color of title, background) how can I change it? Som info in other posts?

Thanks so much for your assistance !!

Hello

about changing color:

- FLEXIcontent includes CSS class inside the HTML,
- web-site designers use CSS rules to customize things like width, borders, colors, icons

any web-designer with basic CSS knowledge can do this,

Just note that:
very difficult to guess needed CSS,
without a link to the actual page

- and even then someone must have trouble locating the part of the page that you are describing, (i would not know where to look)

- but at least for this, since you need to make it readable (i guess your default background matches color of letters), just in this case please post a link, and maybe a picture too that shows in a red circle where we would need to look

Regards
