 * hey, everyone
 * i’m having a little problem on my website
 * on my home page, i need to exclude some categories. i’m using this with a query
   that exclude categories
 * `<?php query_posts('cat=-7,-102&showposts=15'); ?>`
 * but the `posts_nav_link` doesn’t work with this.
 * i tried a traditional loop, using `if ( in_category('7') || in_category('102'))}
   continue`, but the posts showed on the home page changes depending on how much
   posts were excluded.
 * what can i do?

 * well, i’ve found a solution.
 *     ```
       <?php $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
       query_posts("cat=-7,-146&paged=$paged"); ?>
       ```
   
 * using this `$paged` thing made my `posts_nav_link` work.
 * thanks anyway!
