I want to have separate sections on the home page of my zendesk theme for promoted articles. I thought I could use the filter helper to do this like so.

{{#each (filter promoted_articles on="category" equals="360001836433")}}
    <li class="tab-articles__item">
        <a class="tab-articles__title" href="{{url}}">{{title}}</a>
        <p class="tab-articles__discr">{{excerpt body characters=50}}</p>
    </li>
{{/each}}

But nothing shows up in the list, even though I have promoted articles in that category.

What is the correct way of doing this?

@Marc, take a look at the given code:

{{#each categories}}
{{#is id 360002556788}}   // Category ID which have only promoted articles
{{#each sections}}

<h1>{{name}}</h1>
{{#if articles}}
{{#each articles}}
{{#if promoted}}

<li class="promoted-articles-item">
<a href="{{url}}">
{{title}}
</a>
</li>

{{/if}}
{{/each}}
{{/if}}

{{/each}}
{{/is}}
{{/each}}
