   I've figured out how to make something show up on the sidebat if your viewing a certain category but now i want to extend that by have that same something show up if a particular post is within that category as well.

   Here my code so far:

   <?php if (is_category('18')) { ?>
   
   main stuff. need to also include on sidebar for posts in this category too.
   
   <?php } elseif (is_category('Category 56')) { ?>
   
   stuff
   <?php } else { ?>
   
   stuff
   <?php } ?>

   if(in_category(1)) {
   do stuff
   } elseif(in_category(2)) {
   do other stuff
   } else {
   do something else
   }

   Without quotes on the cat ID i think...
