 * I put in slug to filter posts but seeing all posts. Does there need to be any
   formatting when filtering?

 * No formatting is necessary, unless you’re entering multiple values, then simply
   separate them by comma (no space after it). Make sure slug is not in quotation
   marks and double check if the slug is correct – usually it’s only the last part
   of the URL, not including sub-folders. For exampe: /blog/2012/11/06/my-test-post/–
   so the slug would be my-test-post.
 * The options “Single Post” is utilizing `is_single()` [function](http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_single)–
   it should support slugs out of the box.
 * P.S. I just double-checked on my own site and it worked as expected.

 * OK thanks. For categories does it need the category ID or slug?
