not resolvedI am putting together a small site for our agency's intranet use, and I'm having a dilemma. I am using the two-sidebar layout. In my left sidebar, I have a widget area posting articles that fall under the category "Congratulations." However, when I make a new post about it unrelated topic, it shows up in that widget as well. Here is a screenshot of what I'm talking about:

Any what could be causing this?
Here is a snapshot of the Widget:

I do use a plugin called Widget Context, but I have this issue whether or not that plugin is activated. I re-posted an older item that I pulled, and it shows ed up in the sidebar as well. It appears that posts show there regardless of the category I add.
By the way, thanks for your help!

Sorry about the confusion! I forgot that this is one of those 'you learn it once and don't think anything of it' pieces of info.
You need to use the actual category ID and not the name. Go to your posts, select Categories. Click on the Category name you want to get the ID. The URL of that page will be something like:
/wp-admin/edit-tags.php?action=edit&taxonomy=category&tag_ID=55&post_type=post
That tag_ID=## is the category ID you want.
