Number of posts is wrong

    My client noticed this yesterday – on the front page of her site Posts in Sidebar is used in the sidebar (Featured Posts) and in the content area (Popular Posts).

    The number of posts in each is set to 3, but only 1 is showing now under Popular Posts – it doesn’t change no matter how many posts I specify in the shortcode. When I turned on the debugger, it didn’t show any errors in the home page.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hello,
    I see that you’re telling the plugin to get these three posts by ID:
    – 20552
    – 893
    – 3180

    Then, you’re telling that the posts must be under the home-page category.

    Are you sure that these posts are under this category?

    Looking at your site, only the post with ID=893 has the category home-page.

    For this reason Posts in Sidebar displays only one post.

    That makes complete sense – thank you!
