 * Is there a way to filter the posts by category using the either the Post Loop
   or Featured Posts widgets?
    Thanks!

 * This is reasonably easy using the Post Loop widget. In the Additional field add
   the following:
 * `category_name=test`
 * Replace test with the slug of the category you’re trying to filter. Let me know
   if you need help getting the slug.
