    Hi there, I would have a look at this page on Category Templates, and scroll down to “What categories do you show to the visitors?” and see if that helps.

    Hi,
    In child-theme, I copied recent-posts.php and I modified this :

    $recent = new WP_Query( array(
	'posts_per_page'      => 4,
	'cat' 		=> 5, // I added this criteria
	'no_found_rows'       => true,
	'ignore_sticky_posts' => true,
) );

    Now it’s ok

    If it can be of use to somebody

    Thank you
