 * basically calling it as in the following example:
 * c2c_get_recent_posts(3, “”,”34″);
 * doesn’t work for me. funny thing is; i had it print the underlying SQL, and using
   the SQL, it *is* bringing back the proper posts from the category.

 * actually — having trouble with this.
 * when i call this without any more arguments than the post count, everything’s
   hunky dory (well, it works just like the get_archives/postbypost), but when i
   try to specify the category ID, the SQL it returns is valid (popped the SQL in
   and it returns the proper results), but the results do not display at all.

 * sorry didn’t read the instructions well enough–we use the category *id* and not
   category name. thanks,

 * What’s the verdict?
 * This is a very useful feature.
 * someone else wrote an [Ugly Hack around this](http://wordpress.org/support/topic.php?id=7417);
   noone’s written something more pluggable. don’t know why this couldn’t be a plugin
   instead of the ugly hack, though.
