Marking this as resolved

I have found a solution to this problem. This is quite a neat solution as it uses a JOIN in the functions.php.

If anyone thinks this is a bad idea please let me know but at the moment it doesn’t slow anything down and does a great job ??

Thanks Tara, I will try that.

I am a fool – I’ve been searching for so long for this solution and it was really that simple.

Thanks Keesiemeijer, I think I’ve read some of your posts on this forum so I’ll follow closely for more tips.

Much appreciated.
