Add “Show Category” to trending posts

Hey @all,

at the moment its not possible to show a specific category with the trending post shortcode(with Pro!!)!
I changed the file “ftpp-popular-post-slider.php” and added this to “$post_args” category__not_in, this works fine => [wtpsw_popular_post hide_category=”6,9″] …

Is this also possible with a hook or filter(in my function.php)?

My changes:

extract( shortcode_atts( array(
‘hide_category’ => ”
)

$hide_category = !empty($hide_category) ? explode(‘,’, $hide_category) : array();

$post_args = array(
‘category__not_in’ => $hide_category
)

BR, Patrick
