    Hi, I wrote this code to exclude articles from a specific category from the featured post slider widget, but it doesn’t work. Do you have any suggestions?

    function exclude_category_from_slider($args) {
	$exclude = "16";
	$args["exclude"] = $exclude;

	return $args;
}

add_filter("colormag_featured_posts_slider_widget","exclude_category_from_slider");

    Hey @fabriss ,

    I apologize for the delay.

    Could you please let me know if you have created a custom hook for this? If you have not then the code above will not work as only using add_filter() will not make any changes in your site unless an apply_filter() is used for that.

    You can, however, edit your post and choose the category of the post as “Uncategorized” if you want to remove it from a specific category. But remember that not only it will remove the post from the slider but also from other widgets or pages as well.

    Hi Bikalpa

    the hook is colormag_featured_posts_slider_widget already included in colormag. Am I wrong to call him back?
