Hello!

I start this topic by thanking you for the EL plugin. It is incredibly powerful and flexible.

In the filter I use, I have 3 conditions. By keyword, by price range, by tag. At this moment the filter provides the desired results depending on the condition on which the filtering was used

I want to get the following functionality for the EL filter.

When filtering, the first 4 results should be the articles that have fetured status and the next 6 articles that do not have fetured status.
The filtering results should be similar to the way Google works when we search. The first 4 results are the promoted ones and the following 10 are the organic ones

I understand that this functionality is complex, but I strongly believe that it would be highly appreciated by the community that uses Joomla and EL Plugin.

If this functionality is not in your priorities, please let me know if there is a way to get it.

Thank you, with great respect.

Thank you

All the respect for you and for E.L.
Its working now - I suspect you had created the module before creating the layout. This should not be causing a problem - I've corrected the logic in the code and it works on your server.

The changes will be in the next release

This module is needed

I am looking into why you are not getting any custom field output - for some reason the articles have NO custom field data when available they are loaded in the module. Hope to figure out why very soon

For me it is not a problem that I cannot use the print and mail button.

Please help me with Custom Fields. I try to bring them to EL - Articles by Category (Module): Article, but they are not displayed even if I add them to EL
See https://docs.joomla.org/Article_email_and_print_icon_settings and the comment

Screenshot 2022-10-03 at 14-40-23 Article email and print icon settings - Joomla! Documentation.png

Not very helpful in my opinion. Printing articles is quite important for a lot of sites. I'll look at our own implementation but for the time being you will need to remove the print popup and email article links from your layouts :(

"overall module layout" - do you mean this?
"Category Specific Layout Options
These settings control how category specific layouts are treated
Apply category specific layouts to sub-categories
Apply category specific layouts to sub-categories

When enabled this setting means that layouts are applied to sub-categories as well as the main category

You can override this by creating additional layouts for sub-categories that should not follow this rule"

Thanks again for your help and support

FTP Account
You had not created the module layout itself but it still doesn't work when I set this up.

Is it possible for me to get temporary FTP details so I can check if its working as it should.

The way the module works is to intercept the call to the article category module and send it to the mod_easylayouts module instead and to create a customised version of the module files within the mod_easylayouts folder. If I can see the file system I can see where this is failing

Please forgive my insistence, but unfortunately the time is very short to complete the project.

Hello!

I installed the new version of EL but I have the same problem. I think that maybe I am not doing something right.

I created the module - Articles - Category [mod_articles_category]
I created EL layout - Articles by Category (Module) : Article
Regardless of the changes I make in EL, they do not change the way the Module is displayed

Please help me to solve this problem
This was a bootstrap 5/Joomla 4 issue - we had a missing layout file. It was fixed last week in the 1.4.3 development code.

I will release v1.4.3 in a few minutes which should resolve this issue

Hello!

Your idea is wonderful and works perfectly.

I managed to create the module and display it in the category I want. Now I try to change its layout with the help of EL, but the way it is displayed does not change.

I did the following operations.

I created a module - Articles - Category
I created a layout in EL - Articles by Category (Module) : Article
I tried to select the module created to modify the layout. After I save the module, it does not remain selected and no changes are made.

I wonder if I am doing something wrong
I'm wondering if there is a better and easier way to achieve what you want.

If you used a articles category module to display your "featured" items and we integrated the output of the module into the main component area then you could set up a rule for the which items to display in the module and a separate rule for the component but the output would appear 'merged'.

Hi Geraint!

Did you manage to analyze my request? I want to implement this solution in the near future.
