to find the cat ids go to your category admin section hover over the category name and in IE the id number will show as the alt in FF it will show in the bottom browser bar

Debra,

Thank you for your help. You got me back on track :) I didn't know that I had to manually enter in the categories for the Feature #s(no laughing! ;) , so knowing that helped me bring everything back, including the Featured Category from the home.php page. Crisis averted. Thanks again!
