DCG version 3.0 – I may be working too much lately but I think there's a bug in the admin settings section 2.2. I'm setting the category dropdown to my featured category, but it isn't sticking when you save settings.

Hi,
Download a fresh copy and re-install the plugin (deactive the DCG, delete the plugin via FTP – not via the Dashboard – upload fresh copy, reactivate plugin).
Not sure if this is the exact same issue, but when I try to make edits to the sections when using the IE7 browser, I can't get the Save buttons to work/have the changes stick.
However, when I try to use the buttons when using the Firefox browser (3.0), the Save buttons work fine.
I hope that helps you out.

Thanks for the feedback Ben. I'll check it out and post back.
Also using IE7 and XP. None of the Save buttons appear to work (at least beginning with the first one). That is, when I click Save, nothing happens in IE7–no brower refresh or anything. In Firebox, the Save button works, refreshing the page with the new selection.

Ben,
What about other plugins' Settings pages? Can you save their options in IE?
I have found no troubles with other plugins' Save buttons on IE7.

Not sure what to suggest. You're not the only person who has reported this, but I can't recreate the issue here. I'll try out a couple of other PC's and see if I can recreate it.
I believe the problem is the 2.2 One Category Setting will not save any category with a "cat id" larger than two digits (example: 279, 428 etc) the setting defaults to "All" when saved. "cat ids" (example: 4, 7, 22 etc) save fine.

Ah-ha! Thanks for posting that. Yes, it's a bug.
Here's a temporary fix: open up dfcg-admin-ui-sanitise.php (it's in the plugin's includes folder), and change line 294 from this:
$input[$key] = substr( $input[$key], 0, 2 );
to this:
$input[$key] = substr( $input[$key], 0, 4 );
I will issue an updated version of the plugin shortly.
