Straight off wordpress loop page – where it says in_category(‘3’), put the category ID of ones you DON’T want to show. if you want to restrict more than one, put
in_category(‘3’) || in_category(‘4’) || in_category(‘5’)
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<!-- If the post is in the category we want to exclude, we simply pass to the next post. -->
<?php if (in_category('3')) continue; ?>
<div class="post">
<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<small><?php the_time('F jS, Y'); ?></small>
<div class="entry">
<?php the_content(); ?>
</div>
<p class="postmetadata">Posted in <?php the_category(', '); ?></p>
</div> <!-- closes the first div box -->
<?php endwhile; else: ?>
<p>Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.</p>
<?php endif; ?>
No no I want it to show the title only and possibly date and they click the title to go to the post.
For example this
<h2><?php _e('Latest Highlights'); ?></h2>
<ul><?php wp_get_archives('type=postbypost&limit=5'); ?></ul>
Shows all latest post titles. But I want it to only show the post titles from that certain category…and if possible add in the date it was posted also.
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<!-- If the post is in the category we want to exclude, we simply pass to the next post. -->
<?php if (in_category('3')) continue; ?>
<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<small><?php the_time('F jS, Y'); ?></small>
<?php endwhile; else: ?>
<p>Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.</p>
<?php endif; ?>
Okay and last thing XD How do you make it so it only shows latest 5? 😐 -is still learning all this php stuff haha
