How to control the special display of articles in different areas of AnQiCMS's 'recommended attributes'?

In AnQiCMS, the "recommended attribute" is a very practical feature that allows us to refine the marking and classification of published content, thereby realizing a customized display in different areas of the website.The core of this feature lies in assigning specific "flags" or "tags" to articles, so that they can be selectively called in templates, thereby enhancing the exposure of content and the overall operational efficiency of the website.

What is the 'Recommended Attribute'?

In simple terms, 'recommended properties' are some special tags that we can add to an article when publishing or editing it.AnQi CMS provides eight preset recommended attributes, each attribute corresponds to a short letter identifier, which is convenient for calling in the front-end template.These properties include:

• Headline [h]It is usually used to mark the most important and most concerned articles on the website, suitable for displaying in the most prominent position on the homepage.
• Recommend [c]: Indicates that the article content is excellent and worth recommending to users, and can appear in areas such as the sidebar, related article lists, etc.
• Slide [f]This type of article is often used in carousel or focus area to attract users with images and large headlines.
• Special recommendation [a]: This article is recommended specially, it may have timeliness or special value, and is more prominent than ordinary recommendations.
• Scroll [s]: Suitable for news bulletins, announcements, and other content areas that need to be scrolled on the page.
• Bold [b]: Although named bold, in actual application, it is more like a general marker indicating that the content needs to be emphasized.
• Image [p]: Specifically marks articles that are dominated by images and are suitable for display in areas such as photo walls and albums.
• Jump [j]This kind of article is usually not for direct reading, but rather, clicking will jump to external links or other specific pages within the site.

On the article publishing interface, you can select one, multiple, or even no recommended attributes based on the characteristics of the article.This option is flexible, but remember that the letter identifiers corresponding to each recommended attribute are the key to the front-end call.
