    Hey.
    Ive just recently modified my blog so that any posts that are entered into the ‘folio’ category show up on the ‘porfolio’ page and not in the blog.

    Ive managed to exclude the ‘folio’ category from showing up everywhere it shouldnt including in the rss feed etc but i cant seem to stop it showing up on the single post page as you can see here:

    Is there anyway of removing it from the next post navigation?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Chris.

  • Hi,

    Please check in index.php file of your theme and check this code:

    <?php
if (in_category('10') &amp;&amp; in_home() )
continue;
?>

    This is for the category ID 10..you can change it upon the requirement

    Thanks,

    Shane G.

    sorry,
    im not quite sure what you mean?

    the code im using to exclude the category from the home page is:

    <?php
   if (is_home()) {
      query_posts("cat=-156");
   }
?>

    *Edit*
    Ive now deleted the above code and im now using the advanced category excluder plugin… still not solved my problem though. :[

    anyone?
    really bugging me!

    cant be that hard to stop a category showing up in the ‘next’ & ‘previous’ posts navigation?

    Specifically on my site its the ‘Unit 23 Skatepark’ & ‘Culture Flyers’ that shouldnt be showing up as they are in the folio category which im trying to hide.

    again, thanks in advance.

    I finally got frustrated and loaded the “page links to” plugin which works quite well. Create a new page then at the bottom is a section where you can put a categories URL. Has all the navigation and features you need

    thanks for pointing me to that plugin.
    im not 100% sure thats what im looking for tbh tho.

    it seems that i would have to manually place a link to next & previous posts using the ‘page links meta box’ on the post page?

    is this correct or am i missing something?

    Found the solution i was looking for.

    <?php next_post_link('%link', 'Next post in category', TRUE, '13'); ?>
