Data Source
Under the tab Data Source you have the option to filter articles by:
Categories

If you leave these fields empty, then all articles will be selected. Keep in mind that the above filters work simultaneously. This means that if you select a category named Category 1 and a tag named Tag 1, then the module will show articles that belong to both the category Category 1 and the tag Tag 1.
