Hiya,

As according to the documentation you must supply the weblog=”“ parameter if you have more than one weblog. If you only have one weblog in your system then you don’t need to supply it.

weblog=

weblog=“weblog_name”

The name (short name) of the weblog that the categories are assigned to. This variable is required unless you only have a single weblog.
You must specify this parameter if you use the category name in URL feature.

Hope that helps a bit.

Best wishes,

Mark
