I also tried this one but not worked
<?php
$bcat = get_option('mtn_blogcat');
$page_num = $paged;
if ($pagenum='') $pagenum =1;
query_posts('showposts=16&paged='.$page_num.'&cat=-'.$bcat); ?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>

I’m not sure if I totally understand what you are trying to do, but it seems like you could use a standard get_posts call in your template like this:
<?php
$args = array(
'category' => 1,
'posts_per_page' => 5,
'orderby' =>'title',
'order' =>'asc',
'category__not_in' => array(2) );
$posts = get_posts( $args );
?>
That will return all posts in category 1 but not posts in category 2. Assuming you have posts that belong to both categories 1 and 2. Is that what you are looking for?
Side Note: You are using a variable in your code called $page_num but you are referring to it in your loop as $pagenum.
Thanks but is there any way to exlude using $variable instead the category id?
I want to hide this $bcat = get_option(‘mtn_blogcat’);
from home,feeds and search not from archives …
So on the code wich you gave above can I use $bcat instead 1?

<?php
if (!(is_page('home'))) {
$bcat = 'mtn_blogcat';
} else {
//Do Nothing
}
$args = array(
'category' => 1,
'posts_per_page' => 5,
'orderby' =>'title',
'order' =>'asc',
'category__not_in' => array($bcat) );
$posts = get_posts( $args );
?>
I think that’s what you’re trying to do? To exclude the $bcat variable for pages that aren’t the home page? And I’m assuming your posts have multiple categories?
I’m tryiing thankyou verymuch but a quote is missing and I dont know how to add
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ‘)’
Line 13 is ‘posts_per_page’ => 5,
I added a comma to number 1
<?php
if (!(is_page('home'))) {
$bcat = 'mtn_blogcat';
} else {
//Do Nothing
}
$args = array(
'category' => 1,
'posts_per_page' => 5,
'orderby' =>'title',
'order' =>'asc',
'category__not_in' => array($bcat) );
$posts = get_posts( $args );
?>
But I see the posts of category again

try this line
'category__not_in' => array($bcat) );
and take it out of the array
'category__not_in' => $bcat );
Does that work for you?
And yes, I forgot a comma after the 1…it’s fixed in the above code.

You can also try adding this instead of //Do Nothing
$bcat = '';
yes worked now you are great 🙂 thanks
