# Exclude Category doesn't work

 * I have one category of posts that I wish to exclude. When I check that category
   and save, it shows as checked. However, when I leave the page and come back, 
   it is unchecked. Meanwhile, Revive tweets from this category.
 * Any ideas on why this happens and how to fix?

 * Also the “Maximum age of post to be eligible for sharing” setting isn’t saving.
   I set it to 1200. Hit save. Go to another page and come back and it is back to
   0.

 * Were you able to get this issue resolved? I’m just looking to use this plugin
   but its important for me that the Exclude Category is working properly.

 * I disabled the plugin for a few days and then reactivated it and now it appears
   to be working.
 * Nothing else has changed on my end.
 * So my only advice is if you have this problem. Deactivate and reactivate the 
   plugin and see if it goes away.
 * I am unaware of other plugins that do the same task and are currently maintained.

 * Hello,
 * That kind of issue sounds like it’s related to user rights on hosting panel. 
   Let us know if you meet the issue again and we’ll investigate it.
 * Regards,
    Marius
