category_in not working

Thanks for getting back to me so quick. You’re right. That was the problem. Making 2 calls, one for posts, one for page, made everything work. Here’s the actual code block. I’m useing PHP Code for posts plugin to for the code and Post Tags and Categories for Pages plugin to assign categories to pages.

<?php
global $post;
$content = '';
echo '<p>';
	echo do_shortcode('[php snippet=1]');
// snippet 1 displays Signature
	echo '<hr/>';
	if (($post->post_title == "Site Status") or ($post->post_parent == "59")){
// 59 is the ID of the Blog category home page whose title is also Blog. Child pages of page Blog are home pages of Blogging sub-categories.
// Items in Site Status category and Blog category and Blog sub-categories should be listed in descending date order.
// Start by getting the pages assigned to the category the current page is the home page for.
		$content = '<p><b><h3 style="color: #ff0000;">Pages listed in '. $post->post_title . '</h3></b><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>Most Recent is on Top</em></span><br/>';
		$content .= '[tpg_get_posts category_in="' .$post->post_title .'" post_type="page"  orderby="date" order="desc" post_status="publish" numberposts=-1 show_excerpt="true" fields="title,byline,metadata"]</p>';
		echo do_shortcode($content);
// Follow pages with Blog Posts.
		$content = '<p><hr/><b><h3 style="color: #ff0000;">Blog Posts listed in '. $post->post_title . '</h3></b><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>Most Recent is on Top</em></span><br/>';
		$content .= '[tpg_get_posts category_in="' .$post->post_title .'" post_type="post"  orderby="date" order="desc" post_status="publish" numberposts=-1 show_excerpt="true" fields="title,byline,metadata"]';
		echo do_shortcode($content);
	}else{
// For everything else we want the list to be alphabeical.  First the pages.
		$content = '<p><b><h3 style="color: #ff0000;">Pages listed in '. $post->post_title . '</h3></b><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>In Alphabetical Order</em></span><br/>';
		$content .= '[tpg_get_posts category_in="' . $post->post_title  .'" post_type="page"  orderby="title" order="asc" post_status="publish" numberposts=-1 show_excerpt="true" fields="title,byline,metadata"]';
		echo do_shortcode($content);
// Then any Site Status or Blog post
		$content = '<p><hr/><b><h3 style="color: #ff0000;">Blog Posts listed in '. $post->post_title . '</h3></b><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>In Alphabetical Order</em></span><br/>';
		$content .= '[tpg_get_posts category_in="' . $post->post_title  .'" post_type="post"  orderby="title" order="asc"
post_status="publish" numberposts=-1 show_excerpt="true" fields="title,byline,metadata"]';
		echo do_shortcode($content);
	}
// Last, show any attachments to the page we're on.
	$content = '<p><hr/><b><h3 style="color: #ff0000;">Attachments to '. $post->post_title . '</h3></b><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em>In Alphabetical Order</em></span><br/>';
	$content .= '[tpg_get_posts post_type="attachment"  post_parent="' .  $post->ID .'" orderby="title" order="asc" post_status="inherit" numberposts=-1 fields="title,byline,metadata"]';
	echo do_shortcode($content);
echo '</p>';
