Thank you for the proposition ! It doesn’t work and it “bypasses” the exclude function too… For the moment I found this solution : multiple loops, a loop for each category and showposts=1 and offset=1.

<div class="post-list group">
				<div class="post-row">
				<?php $qualite_eau = new WP_Query('category_name=qualite-de-leau&showposts=>1&offset=1'); ?>
				<?php while ($qualite_eau->have_posts()) : $qualite_eau->the_post(); ?>
				<?php get_template_part('content'); ?>
				<?php endwhile; ?>	

				<?php rewind_posts(); ?>

				<?php $act_littorales = new WP_Query('category_name=act-littorales&showposts=1&offset=1');?>
				<?php while ($act_littorales->have_posts()) : $act_littorales->the_post(); ?>
				<?php get_template_part('content'); ?>
				<?php endwhile; ?>	

				<?php rewind_posts(); ?>

				<?php $cours_eau = new WP_Query('category_name=cours-eau&showposts=1&offset=1'); ?>
				<?php while ($cours_eau->have_posts()) : $cours_eau->the_post(); ?>
				<?php get_template_part('content'); ?>
				<?php endwhile; ?>
				</div>

				<?php rewind_posts(); ?>
				</div><!--/.post-list-->

The problem is the offset option applies to the category posts not the latest post in all categories, which is logical but so I get the second to last post of each category.

Thank you it works !! I think you’re right, I had created a page template home.php where there were 3 loops to call each category, so it certainly was bypassing the exclude function.
But now I just have another little problem, it displays all the posts of each category, not just one. I suppose there is a “showpost=1” or “posts_per_page=-1” (not sure of the syntax) to add somewhere, but where ?
Maybe somewhere in the default loop of index.php ?

<div class="post-list group">
				<?php $i = 1; echo '<div class="post-row">'; while ( have_posts() ): the_post(); ?>
					<?php get_template_part('content'); ?>
				<?php if($i % 3 == 0) { echo '</div><div class="post-row">'; } $i++; endwhile; echo '</div>'; ?>
			</div><!--/.post-list-->
			<?php endif; ?>

Thank you for your help ! I tried the method with the “post__not_in” parameter and the $do_not_duplicate transformed in array but it didn’t work… So I’ve posted on the Hueman support page like you say. Should I close this topic ?
