Thanks Pavit that worked great!

Now is there a way to use this in multiple pages with different articles? Since I have 9 physical locations in our business I would like to a spotlight ACM to display different categories on each individual site, that way each site would have their own news and blog entries.

Hi

Of course you can

add new modules latest news and articles category where you choose new categories to show and in menu assignments inside module, assign it to the specific menu item.
so you will have 1 JA Acm spotlight module ( assigned to the various menu items ) and multiple modules latest news and articles category.

Hope was clear

Hi Pavit,

So the spotlight ACM does not change, reuse the same one in all the pages but have to create an individual news module for each category. Then assign that to a menu item? That’s the part that is a bit confusing.

correct

example :

you want a new menu item where you want to show different news from different categories
then you should assign at the spotlight-2 ja acm module also the new menu item ( page ) in menu assignment, then you will create 3 new modules – ( latest news – Articles category – custom-html ) leave them published in the same positions like the other ones and assign them to the new item you created – then choose different categories to shows editing them-
