Hello,

I want to display online recent posts in the sidebar from spefici category. If I call the news section I want to see online recent posts in the sidebar area from this category and not from all category#s. Same for articles, screenshots and videos category. 

Maybe I have to change something in the wg-sidebar.php but what exactly / how.

I thing this is the part ...:

if($sort == 'recent')
{
$posts = get_posts('numberposts='.$items.'&order=DESC&orderby=date&post_type=post&post_status=publish');
$title = __('Recent Posts', 'powermag');
}
else
{
global $wpdb;

$query = "SELECT ID, post_title, post_content FROM {$wpdb->prefix}posts WHERE post_type = 'post' AND post_status= 'publish' ORDER BY comment_count DESC LIMIT 0,".$items;
$posts = $wpdb->get_results($query);
$title = __('Popular Posts', 'powermag'); 
}

I can import a few if else statements only to check category. It's not to much work ;)
