    I want my Spotlight Module to show my newest 3 articles from a certain “Section” that I select. So far, I can only pick a “category” and it only shows my 3 oldest articles in that category.

    Also, how can I get it to show the 1st image in the article instead of the last?

    Hi kingchachi2000,

    1. I want my Spotlight Module to show my newest 3 articles from a certain “Section” that I select.
    => Current this module does not support your idea. You have to select a categoty for each module.
    2. So far, I can only pick a “category” and it only shows my 3 oldest articles in that category. Also, how can I get it to show the 1st image in the article instead of the last?
    => This module gets articles arcording to sort order. if you want the newest article to display, you can set the order of this article in that category.

    In administrator, go to Content -> Article Manager to list articles.
    Here you can find the category, which is using for the Spotlight Module, and then change the order of articles.
    The article, which the order is min will display on the Spotlight Module.

    No, how can I display the first “image” instead of the last which it defaults to?
