Hi all, We are trying to figure out why the Category Posts Widget (titled "Community" in the left sidebar) is NOT displaying any entries on the home page, but displays fine when you click through to interior pages. We've tried disabling other plugins, removing the search function, trying two separate "category post" widgets to ensure that two aren't clashing, but haven't been able to find a result yet. Any ideas? The website is: arthurg.com. Thanks so much for your time and help!
Did you check the settings for the widget in the widget control panel and check the theme settings to make sure there is not a setting to collapse it on the home page? Also, if it's not one of the default category widgets, like if you added a category plugin, then you might check the coding for the plugin, maybe it is set to collapse on the home page. Edit: check the settings for the 'wordpress category post list' plugin you have.
Thanks for the quick response! Actually, tried one of the default category post widgets first, and it displayed the same problem. So we went with a more advanced category posts widget -- same problem! There are no options within the plugin to "hide" on the homepage.
Just checked the code as well for both plugins, and nothing like that is in the code... any other suggestions? Thanks again!
How about your templates home page file? Try changing your template to a different one real quick and see if it does the same thing on a different template.
Great, I'll try that. Do you know if switching the theme from one to another, then changing back to the original theme will cause any custom CSS to be lost?
There was a problematic plugin that was clashing with the category posts widgets. Deactivated all plugins and reactivated them one-by-one until it was narrowed down. Thanks for your help -- very much appreciated!
