> ⚠ 🧑🏽‍🔧

> I did a full re-write of this component. It’s hosted on a new repository and has a new topic: [Featured Lists](https://meta.discourse.org/t/featured-lists/288916)

> This version continues to work fine for now, but if you’re on Discourse 3.2.0.beta3 or above please use the new version.

This component lets you feed diverse topic lists on your homepage. The default look:

On the component settings you can define the feed lists and the outlet postition:

The feed list format is a bit advanced and you have to understand a few list concepts of Discourse to make good use of it. You set the

- feed title
- list length
- list filter (latest,top,unread,..)
- tag filter (as defined by the tag slug)
- category filter (as defined by the category id)
- feed link (where clicking the _More_ button takes you)

Lists are set up as flex-boxes, so when there’s only one it will stretch out by default:

> 👍 **Credits:** The component is a spin-off from [Showcased Categories](https://meta.discourse.org/t/showcased-categories/173524). @Ahmed_Gagan extended the functionality and I rewrote the architecture. In the end we changed so much that it’s not compatible any more.
