This is so great. Really makes placing multiple blocks on page very simple. Awesome.
The guy how worked on this module definitively must be rewarded with a lot of beers. For large sites (news sites)this module is pure GOLD ! After installed this module on my site, my views on articles increased with about 50% !! just install it, don't hesitate!
A very nice addition to my sites! Simple and easy to use.
My site use drupal too : bieu thue
This is a must have module, no doubt. It works great. No errors, no bugs. With a more complex documentation is a 5 stars module.
This guy who create this.. really needs a donation from us. It helped me ALOT!
Trying to setup related content on your website?
About ready to give up?
It slices, it dices, it blends, it grinds, it shines and will even do Random.
Special TLC has gone into the front end to make it friendly for the non-programmer.
This module is prefect for the webmaster tired of building views for the staff or non-techie types that want to rule their own world.
Here's why this module was created:

Update: FC just keeps getting better. I found an interesting feature that is not normally discussed. And I feel it very important, especially for us with a medium skill level.
FC helps keep your design clean, focused and logical structure. You have to think things out for the overall good and usage of data on the site. You need to stay focused your url paths... are the logical?So you can reuse your data over and over in different locations.
Websites have evolved with giant steps over the last few years. Now instead of a bunch of pages scattered across the website with links to organize them, we are more like database marketers -- fetching this and that from a common source of site data.aka tweaker
Great module for building blocks of related content or featured content. The documentation is built into the module. Simply go to the blocks page and click on "add a featured content block" and you are good to go. There are lots of different hgh types of ways of pulling in content to the block.
I know the Views module is supposed to be king of all Drupal modules. However, I am a blind web developer, and for some reason my screen reader does not work well with the displays when I go to build a Block or Page. So, when I came across this module to help me display related posts in my blog, I was unashamedly ecstatic. Thank you for making it so ridiculously easy to display and sort featured content without the need to use Views or manually code PHP. You have no idea how simple this task has become for someone still getting familiar with Drupal in general.
However its rare that on large websites, admin wants to define related blocks manually but its very useful if its needed. Also the Search Results Content feature is so nice and useful to show related contents in other nodes. Totally i think its a useful module for most users and installing it is useful.
This module makes placing multiple blocks on a page extremely simple. The configuration page was self explanatory. The clarity here is exceptional. I had the module producing the desired output minutes after installation.
Well done!
In my point of view its a Superior Module to the others. Very useful and convenient easy to understand. Documentation is perfect.

Its an useful addition to my site
easy to handle it very user-friendsly
super nice module. hope it will be updated for drupal 7 soon.
I run a social network and my users really like the power of this module. I've had no problems with it! Huge snaps to the creator!
Really intuitive. The message instructions are very clear, so you don't have to do any research or try to find documentation. Just select the settings and the content that you want, and then put it into a region. It's a real time saver. It took longer for me to write this review than it did to install and use the module.
I would like to say that this project was well thought out for creating blocks for non-developers.
A very nice addition to my sites! Simple and easy to use.
This module provides a straightforward interface for administrative users to define blocks of content. The options to select the content are all-inclusive and easy to understand. Very simple and oh-so-useful! Kudos to the developer; this module will be in every site I build from now on.
Very friendly to both the enduser and the developer. Well thought out and well-documented.
This module is superior to the others of its kind. It has a myriad of configuration options for presenting content. You can sort content by date, popularity, even randomly. You also have control over what is shown when the links are clicked, which is great! You also have block visibility setttings by user, role and content type.
The help text is clear and well-writter, which is a rarity. This module is outstanding! Thank you!
This module fills a vital need in helping non-developers create blocks of content based on nearly any criteria.
Using it is incredibly self explanatory -- for a basic block, you choose choose which author, tag, and/or content type to list, how you want it to display (headlines only or summaries), and then choose where to display the block, as you would anything.
This gives users the ability to create related content blocks for landing pages without using Views or any coding.
