It's not updating, Joe. something is wrong, it also displays nothing if i change the category id from 4 to 2. at category id 4 it shows only 7 articles, but doesn't show anything newly added to that category. i cleared the cache, set the times to 5 min, 20 min, 1 hr. nothing worked

here's my code

$mostpopularweek_get = vB::$db->query_read("
  SELECT DISTINCT
                 ca.contentid,
                 cn.publishdate,
                 cn.nodeid,
                 cni.title,
                 cni.viewcount
  FROM
   ".TABLE_PREFIX."cms_nodecategory cnc
  JOIN
   ".TABLE_PREFIX."cms_node cn
  ON 
  cnc.nodeid = cn.nodeid
  JOIN
   ".TABLE_PREFIX."cms_article ca
  ON
   cn.contentid = ca.contentid
  JOIN
   ".TABLE_PREFIX."cms_nodeinfo cni 
  ON
  cn.nodeid = cni.nodeid
  WHERE
  cn.parentnode = 4
  ORDER BY
  cn.publishdate desc
  LIMIT 20
     ");
  $output = '';
  while($article = vB::$db->fetch_array($mostpopularweek_get))
  {
            $output .='<div class = "cms_widget_post_bit"><h4 class="cms_widget_post_header"><a href="content.php?r='.$article[nodeid].'">'.$article[title].'</a> </h4></div>';
  }
