 * How do the numbers in the Excluded command box work? There are certain forums
   we don’t want published on this particular widget and can’t seem to figure out
   how the numbers work.
 * We have 4 separate forum categories and one of them needs to excluded. The number
   that is in there is like 17/37/31 which I have no idea how to interpret that.
 * Thanks in advance.

 * You can find the number in the url when you click on that particular portion 
   of the forum.
 * For example:
 * [http://pixelsmashers.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=25](http://pixelsmashers.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=25)
 * Look after the f. If I wanted to exclude that forum it would be 25. If I looked
   at another url and saw it was like 13 or something and I wanted to exclude both
   25 and 13 I would write in the exclude forum list in the widget:
 * 5/13
 * I hope that helps (Note: I am not the author of this plugin).
