 * I use WordPress as a CMS (With Pinboard theme).
 * I only have 11 Posts in a Portfolio Category.
    On My Homepage there are several
   sites with a sidebar on the right. This sidebar includes Featured Category Widget.
 * But on every site there are the same Posts in the widget.
    Is ist because i have
   only 11 posts?
 * or are there other reasons which cause this problem?

 * Hello and sorry for a late reply.
 * I can’t say at the moment, what causes the same posts to appear. How many do 
   you display? It might be because there are only 11 that the widget always displays
   the same ones.
 * I will try to see, whether it’s a bug and come back to you.
 * Regards

 * Hi there again,
 * I can’t see that it’s really a bug. I will mark this as resolved.
