 * If you’re using the [[wpp] shortcode](https://github.com/cabrerahector/wordpress-popular-posts/wiki/1.-Using-WPP-on-posts-&-pages#the-wpp-shortcode)
   and/or the [wpp_get_mostpopular()](https://github.com/cabrerahector/wordpress-popular-posts/wiki/2.-Template-tags#wpp_get_mostpopular)
   template tag then please use the **exclude** parameter.
 * For example, let’s say that you want to exclude post ID 22 from the list:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       [wpp exclude="22"]
       ```
   
 * See [Parameters](https://github.com/cabrerahector/wordpress-popular-posts/wiki/2.-Template-tags#parameters)
   for more details.
 * If you’re using the [WordPress Popular Posts block](https://github.com/cabrerahector/wordpress-popular-posts/wiki/1.-Using-WPP-on-posts-&-pages#the-wordpress-popular-posts-block)
   then use the **Post ID(s) to exclude **field to do so.

 * Don’t mention it, glad I could help!
 * And thanks for the suggestion, I’ll consider adding a way to exclude posts from
   the Stats page as well.
