Channel Entries Tag Will Not Sort Using Category Parameter

Question

This is a strange issue, I can't get the channel entries tag to sort by category. I only want entries that are in this category to display.

When you remove the category="13" it produces results but if it's there it will not.

{exp:channel:entries channel="people" category="13" limit="10" paginate="bottom"}
     <div class="person">
          {exp:ce_img:single src="http://XXXX.com/images/member_photos/{photo_filename}" max="125" }
          <h2><a href="{path=people/detail}/{member_id}/{url_title}">{title}</a></h2>
          <p>{person_excerpt}</p>
          <br class="clear_both" />
     </div>
    {paginate}
         <div id="pagination">                                                              
              {pagination_links}   
         </div>
    {/paginate}
{/exp:channel:entries}

Any tips will be appreciated!

Answer 1

Try adding dynamic="no" to your entries {exp:channel:entries} tag. This will stop EE from doing some things that it does automatically based on the page's URL.
