 I am glad to see I can place an article in multiple editions with your Magazine component, however I need to know if it does this by placing content into a custom content table in mysql, thereby making such articles invisible to many standard and 3rd party components?

Also, when you say it can be placed in two editions, does this give me the capability I am really looking for? I don't need to place it in multiple "editions", but rahter I need an article that is placed anywhere within any edition to also be available within multiple sections of the website.

An example of what I need to do is this: There are 2 seperate departments within our magazine. One is "Features" and another is "Destinations"...  In many cases a Feature article is about a particular destination, and in these cases I would want the visitor to our site to find this article in both places.

One of the biggest limitations of joomla for my needs is that if I have an article that I want to appear in multiple categories, it can't be done with the built in joomla section/category/article structure. 

An example of what I need to do is this: There are 2 seperate departments within our magazine. One is "Features" and another is "Destinations"...  In many cases a Feature article is about a particular destination, and in these cases I would want the visitor to our site to find this article in both places. 

Currently I have not figured out a way to do this with the default joomla installation, and I can't tell from the documentation here if this is possible with your "Magazine" product. 

I have found that a competing product, JXtended Magazine, has this capability but in the process it creates its own content table, so that any article you place into it's "Magazine" structure is not available to some of the standard joomla modules such as "Popular" for example.... Popular can only see the sections/categories native to joomla, and thus completely ignores any article created within the JXMagazine structure aka publication/issues/sections.

Does your Magazine product have a solution for my desire to place articles into multiple sections/categories without the same limitation I'm seeing in the competing product?
