I'm not sure I know enough about farcry to be the one test the
snippets in a new environment.  I'm still new to this so if what I'm
descibing is a bad idea please tell me a better way to do it. I am
working on a college website.  I have a homepage with a navigation
structure across the top. Below that, kind of as side navigation bar
we want to create a set of links based on your role (future student,
current student etc) that when clicked on lead to a page the draws out
some of the content that exists in the global navigation on top based
on the what the audience role is.

So I've created  a set of dmHTML pages (Future Students, Current
Students) etc.  I've created a category called Splash Pages and and
assigned each of these pages to that category.  Now I simply want to
display any page in the category as a list of links on the page.   I
thought I would do this by container using the handpicked rule.  It
was working Farcry 3 but the rules and how the function seems to have
changed in 4.

Please help.
