 * A widget (sidebar) slideshow set to display slides only with category ‘xyz’ is
   also displaying 4 slides from a different category.
    ‘Slideshow Quantity’ is 
   set to 25 to accommodate a large & changing number of ‘xyz’ slides (all other
   slide categories will have far less than 25 slides). At present, there are only
   21 ‘xyz’ slides, and I’m getting 4 slides displayed (at the end of the slideshow
   sequence) from a different category. I’ve tried re-setting the sidebar slideshow’s
   slug, and the category settings of the 4 incorrectly displayed slides – no change.
   The only hack I’ve found is to reduce the Slideshow Quantity setting to 21 – 
   but this will cause future hassles when there are more than 25 ‘xyz’ slides to
   display. Note the page with my sidebar slideshow also has a header area slideshow(
   slide category = ‘home’). Sorry can’t provide a link to the site as is being 
   constructed off-air.

 * Are you using the latest version of Meteor Slides, 1.5.4? Could you roll it back
   to [1.5.3](https://wordpress.org/plugins/meteor-slides/developers/)? I made a
   change to the widgets in 1.5.4 and I want to make sure that isn’t causing this.

 * Thanks Josh. No change after downgrade to 1.5.3. Same problem if I call the slideshow
   using shortcode in a text widget
    ie [meteor_slideshow slideshow=”sponsors-sidebar”]

 * That’s very strange, I would try deactivating your other plugins to confirm there
   isn’t a conflict with a query in another plugin. What theme are you using?

 * What’s even stranger is that the widget slideshow is now functioning correctly,
   even with Slideshow Quantity set to 30. Have re-updated the plug-in, and everything
   is still looking fine. Dunno. Anyway, am happy – thanks for your assistance Josh.
