   My widget's title is not correctly linking to the category. It links to whatever page the user is already on. Any ideas?

   Site still being developed: http://184.172.27.141/~ovinte/blog/sample-page/ I would like "Wine of the Month" to link to http://184.172.27.141/~ovinte/blog/category/wine-of-the-month/)

   Otherwise, great plugin!

   If you want a quick fix, on line 171 it looks like
   

   if ( $instance['category'] != "none" ) {
   				$category = '&cat='.$instance['category'];
   			} else {

   if you ad in the $category_id = $instance['category']; line, to make it look like
   

   if ( $instance['category'] != "none" ) {
   				$category_id = $instance['category'];
   				$category = '&cat='.$instance['category'];
   			} else {

   and then on line 203

   echo $before_title . '<a href="' . get_category_link($category) . '">'.$title.'</a>'.$after_title;

   Changing $category to $category_id

   echo $before_title . '<a href="' . get_category_link($category_id) . '">'.$title.'</a>'.$after_title;

   Then save it and upload it and you'll be all set. This fix will be included into the next version which should be coming out beginning of december :)

   Thanks!

   I want to get my new home page launched before I release it and it's just taking a little longer than expected. Shouldn't be more than a couple weeks now, is there something I could help you with more immediately? You can email me at kaser [at] cssboss.com with any questions you might have.
