Category Exclude & Post exclude aren't working
-
Hi Joost
We’ve used the News module/plugin since it launched (currently using 1.1.1) and it’s worked very well for us.
We recently decided to allow carefully selected sponsored articles on site and have done all the usual nofollow/disclaimer stuff to keep everyone happy, and we did – just to be safe – uncheck the pre-checked box to include in the News sitemap.
However, we discovered the story in G News and realise that unchecking the box doesn’t work as on save it changes to checked.
So we decided to add a category for Sponsored articles and submit the story under that setting and only include the article in the excluded category until it fell out of G News. But that doesn’t work either.
It seems it’s impossible to exclude by category or, which would be preferable, by individual post.
We’ve done the usual plugins on/off and the News module on/off and resave settings, but it still obstinately refuses to allow exclusions.
Are you aware of this?
John
