Category ID not working
I have installed the reveal id plugin for wordpress and I have identified the category ID as 108
When I enter 108 in the category ID spot i do not get the correct posts...what am I doing wrong?

Re: Category ID not working
I figured this one out by peeking at the MySQL table.
There are TWO IDs for each category, tag, etc.: the one that shows up on mouseovers and in the address bar, which is stored in a field called "term_id," and another stored in a field called "term_taxonomy_id." Mine were in sync for the formation of most of my tags and categories, but somehow are now off by one.
In any case, the number to enter in the module admin is the one in term_taxonomy_id.
Why?
Dunno.
