Could you share the URL you are working on?
Also, would be nice if you could provide the details about the widget which is showing such behavior –– it would be easier to help you further.Thanks!

when you see sidebar code you have the 2 bottom sidebar widget one is category-posts-21 and the other category-posts-20 but they show the same content but shouldn’t, they are pulling different data and have a different title, this happens all the time on all pages

Hi again,
Thanks for the details, your site is a Self-Hosted WordPress site(using WordPress Software only) and not a site hosted here on WordPress.com. These are two different platforms of WordPress, and you can learn more about it here:
WordPress Com vs WordPress ORG
I could notice the replication in your sidebar, your best way to get help would be by contacting the Theme author. This link could be helpful. You could also consider posting on the WordPress org Support forums.
This forum is just for WordPress.com users. Good luck with getting it sorted soon.
Thanks!
