Simply Exclude plugin preventing blog posts from displaying on Blog page

I have the same exact issue!

@dc2010 & @jsnyder27,

Thanks for the post. And thanks for providing exactly no information about your WordPress site, your theme or even you settings for Simply Exclude. I can’t begin to help you without something to look into.

I have the same issue. It was working a month ago, I guess with the previous version. Now, whenever I activate the plugin, the posts disappear from the blog page.
I’m using the latest version of WordPress and the theme I’m using is Salient. My website is sestek.com .

Any more information you need?

Just installed this plugin but when I add a post excluding it from the homepage the other posts disapper.

site url – https://jimlunsford.com
Running ‘Billie’
Theme – 2015
Settings – Default other than selecting a category to exclude

I found a solution. Use the Code Snippet plugin and enter the following code:

function exclude_category( $query ) {
    if ( $query->is_home() && $query->is_main_query() ) {
        $query->set( 'cat', '3' );
    }
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'exclude_category' );

Replace 3 with the category ID you want to exclude.

Not only will you be able to achieve this you can also use the plugin to enter more code snippets.

I guess this way will work, too. Thanks Jim, I’ll try your method!
