As per title, I've implemented Featured Content Handlers for the content types
This means that process of featuring/unfeaturing AMS content is now 100% handled by the Core XF Featured Content Handler.
You can use the Core XF Featured Content Widget Definition to create featured content widgets for AMS content (or mixed content). Display is controlled by Core XF Featured Content Layout types (Standard, Simple, Carousel), not AMS Layout Types!
You can also continue to use the AMS Featured Articles Widget Definition & AMS Featured Series Widget Definition to create Featured Articles widgets & Featured Series widgets for AMS content and display that content in AMS layout types.
AMS Index: Featured Articles are still being displayed the same (based on AMS options and AMS Layout Type Macros).
AMS Category pages. Featured Articles are still being displayed the same (based on AMS options and AMS Layout Type Macros).
AMS Series list: Featured Series are still being displayed the same (based on AMS options and Layout Type Macros).
Note: You can disable the AMS options and instead, create widget(s) from the Featured Content Widget Definition and display those on AMS Index/Category/Series list pages (which is what XFRM does).
There is unfortunately some feature loss. The Auto Feature system has been sunsetted (at least for now). It is not compatible with the Core XF Featured Content Handler (and frankly, that kind of functionality needs to be part of the Core XF Abstract Featured Content Handler).
