# Hide from “Recent Posts” widget?

 * It would be awesome if this plugin could hide a post from the “recent posts” 
   widget. That way we could manage all the hiding in one place from within WordPress.
   Currently I am using the method described in [https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/103570/how-to-hide-a-post-from-recent-posts-widget](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/103570/how-to-hide-a-post-from-recent-posts-widget)
   but this requires knowing the post number and manually updating the code with
   each new hidden post.
 * Please advise. Thanks for a useful plugin!!

 * Hi, thank you for contacting me.
 * Yes, that was requested before and it is added in the queue for new functionalities
   to which I haven’t gotten the time to add.
 * I am positive I will be able to add this functionality for the next version which
   I am hoping to release within a week.
 * Best,
    Martin

 * You can download the plugin from the git repo and test it. I still have some 
   updates to do before pushing on the WordPress repo.
