Featured posts shown on slider and on blocks too

Hello,
We have created a homepage with a slider where we are showing some featured posts. But the posts shown in the featured loop slider are not showed down, in the categories blocks. Is there anyway to show them in the slider but in the blocks too? Maybe some readers don’t pay attention to the slider.

Thank you in advance.

Juan.

Hi,

If the posts are in other category also and you set that category or all categories to show in a specific block the posts should appear in both slider and block if the unique article feature is not activated: http://screencast.com/t/Zqqcamhyp
Please make sure you have the unique article feature disable on your page template and that the posts are in the category you have set to show on block.

Thanks

Hello Lucian,
In our homepage we have some blocks with the same contents and categories. If we deactivate the unique article feature, the same news will be repeated in the different blocks, won’t it? We just want the slider news to be included in the blocks too.

Hi,

That is the way the unique article feature works on pages, if you activate it then you will have only unique articles on that template so if you want those article to be shown in blocks also then you will have to disable the unique article feature and make sure you use the posts/categories only in one block and just once, you can use filters and to control which posts to display on blocks.

Thanks
