 * Hi,
 * I’m having a problem with the “exclude previously displayed posts” function. 
   Whenever I select this, it removes the most recently published post, regardless
   of whether it has appeared on the page before.
 * I’m using the metro pro child theme. I’m up to date on plugins, themes etc. Any
   help would be appreciated.
 * Thanks
