 * This plugin works, and gives you complete control over the look of your recent
   posts, but the filters that are supposed to constrain the widget to a single 
   category doesn’t work correctly. If you try to filter the category at all, nothing
   will show up –the only way it works is to leave the filtering off, so all posts
   show up in the widget/shortcode.
