Hello guys,
In WordPress, how can I specify specific categories to be posted in the sidebar? I only want one category of my blog posts to show up in the sidebar. Thanks!

3,716 PointsNo, I want to display a blog post with a specific category assigned to that blog post -
example:
I have a blog - the blog has two categories, A and B -
I want my home page sidebar to only display blog posts with category B chosen
