I did a google search for displaying a single category on a page with the blog module, which led me to this post: http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/F... 

However, when I go in the module options and the Personal Page dropdown, my categories are not listed. How do I get my categories to appear in that dropdown so I can select the appropriate category?

Thanks!

I sort of had success with this, I had to create a second user, and create the blog as that user. Then I was able to select their blog only on the page like I wanted. Is this the only way to accomplish my goal of displaying one blog per page?

Did you try the workaround I described? Create a new user, make them an admin on the page, and have the new user create a new blog on the page. Then you can go into the module options, and select to display just that blog.

Yeah, I know that's a way to get it to work, but its a hassle... especially for the tech-limited user who will then need to log in two different ways to update the pages individually. "All" that's needed is the ability to filter to a specific child blog/category. If I can get a break I'll look into the code.
