Good day, can anyone help point me in the direction of how to display a list with Category Title and a few of the articles from that category ( they could be favorites or the first four or five as ordered) with links to their respective full article.

I have tried to modify the default template as described, but can not figure out how to loop thru to get articles for each displayed category.

Instead of view Items. I want actual links to some articles for each cat.

Thanks for any help.
