# Posts won't display

 * I downloaded the Posts in Page plugin recently. I am trying to insert certain
   categories of posts into various pages around the site, as it says I can do. 
   However, it only works half the time. For example, if I set it to display all
   posts in the “Video” or “volleyball” category, it will work. However, if I try
   to insert the posts in the “football” or “basketball” category it won’t display
   anything. What do I need to do?

 * Hey 16dcaldwell,
 * I’d recommend visiting your Categories in the WordPress Admin under Posts > Categories
   and make sure you’re using the right slug.
 * For example, if you have a basketball category, make sure the slug for this category
   is what you’re putting in the Posts in Page shortcode.

 * Sometimes, if you have other content on the site that’s already using a slug,
   a category might get a slightly different slug than you expect.
 * Let me know how that works.

 * Yep, that worked just fine. I had a couple duplicates that had “-2” stuck to 
   them. Thanks!
