You wouldn't need to make any modifications to any ".php" files to do this though. You may want to read my article about using the RSS feed right here in this blog! It will show you how to use the RSS feed for any of the parameters already built in to it. Yes, you can add an RSS feed for any category.

Great tutorial, will this work with the normal 68 Classifieds (not seller store). Could you have an RSS feed for each category?

In your default template folder, any file that has a suffix, ".tpl" is a template file. This plugin is already in use in the "home.tpl" file. Open that to see how it is used there. When specifying the category ID as was the purpose of this mod, then yes, it does limit this to one category. This is the reason for this modification as before it would pull listings from all categories. The main reason people wanted this was to add this specifically to category page, therefore showing only listings within that ONE category. For the additional parameters, please visit the official 68 Classifieds documentation as it explains all of the parameters and how to use them. Bear in mind that this article was written specifically for an additional parameter modification. Therefore it is assumed that you are familiar with the use of the plugin and the parameters. Here's a link to the documentation for this plugin on 68 Classifieds website: <a href="http://www.68classifieds.com/documentation/plugins/featurelistingshorizontal?s[]=featured&s[]=listings" target="_blank" title="Featured Listings Documentation" rel="nofollow">68Classifieds.com/documentation</a>.

You write: In the template file that you wish to list your categories (Can you tell me what template file for exemple as I use the default version in v4.1.2, thank you) you need to call the smarty function like this: {function.featured_listings_horizontal.php cat=X} Could you tell me where I have to put this code in the right template file, thank you. Replace X with the category ID of your choosing. (does that mean that we just can see one category?) Also remember that this additional parameter is an addition, so all of the other parameters can still be used (Can you explain a little bit more, sorry i am a bit new in php and smarty code, thank you) Regards Jérôme Hello,
