Re: exclude a category from the blog

Okay, open up page_blog.php and look for this line...

Code:

<?php $page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; query_posts("cat=1&showposts=5&paged=$page"); while ( have_posts() ) : the_post() ?>

Change it to this...

Code:

<?php $page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; query_posts("cat=1,-2&showposts=5&paged=$page"); while ( have_posts() ) : the_post() ?>

So what we're saying there is to show posts from category 1 and to ignore posts from category 2.

If you posts from all categories apart from category 2 then do this...

Code:

<?php $page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; query_posts("cat=-2&showposts=5&paged=$page"); while ( have_posts() ) : the_post() ?>
