Content Slider - Showing featured topics from just the current subforum

Hi all,

I'm playing with the content slider module at the moment. The way I want to use it is like a sort of "super sticky". So at the top of the list of topics,




I want to show a few featured topics from just that subforum. I have figured out that I can do that if I make a different template for each subforum if I use the following JSON:

 
 {"channel":["1"],"featured":"1","sort":{"created":"desc"},"view":"","exclude_type":["vBForum_PrivateMessage"]}

and change the channel number for each subforum.

But is there an easier way? Is there a JSON code that pulls the topics just from the subforum you are curently visiting?

Thank you in advance
