Category-specific Modules?

[RobParker]

Not sure if this is possible but rather than having all top rated items in the top rated modules, would it be possible to have separate modules per category?

e.g.

Top Rated in Category 1
Top Rated in Category 2
etc?

Hey Rob... Category specific Modules is something that will be available in the future. Right now everything Widget/Block/Module wise is Global (meaning that it pulls from ALL Categories).

The method getItemsByCategory now requires an array of category IDs instead of a single category ID, so this request is getting closer to being possible. I seriously doubt I will be including functionality in All Widgets, Blocks and Modules in the next version, but the core method(s) will be available for customization purposes if you are in a huge hurry.
