I used it and found it helpful. Just imagine showing posts in a single category with related posts from within the same. Nothing much thanks.. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e6e48a28e30dafcb01832400cf18e0c5339e82a8fde8a14a5fa8e2338a591f17? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Perfect for displaying from a particular category](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perfect-for-displaying-from-a-particular-category/)󠁿 [David Wampamba](https://profiles.wordpress.org/dwampamba/) Septanm 3, 2016 Up to point.
