Blog Displays All Categories

    Hi-

    Site: https://www.lifepathbydesign.net

    In the Blog List Options section of the blog page, I chose only one blog category to display. I have two categories and the blog is still displaying both. Categories are Linda’s Book Reviews and Life Path Posts. I selected Life Path Posts only to display.
    I checked to make sure I did not have two categories selected in the single Linda’s Book Reviews page. Only the Linda’s Book Reviews checkbox is checked.

    Please help. Thanks
    PS I cleared the cache.

    Hey,
    When I view this page- https://www.lifepathbydesign.net/category/lindas-book-reviews/ I am only seeing a post from Linda’s Book Reviews. Are you seeing something different? Have you cleared your browser cache?

    Hi Hannah
    No that page is fine. It’s the main blog page that is supposed to have only Life Path Posts. It also has the book review post

    If the Life Path Posts category is clicked, again fine. It’s when you click Blog which goes to the main blog page that it gets all the posts.

    I just tested this and it was working fine. In Settings > Reading do you have a page set as your post page? This needs to be left blank.

    Hannah,

    If I click on the Blog main menu link, the Alchemist post is displayed. This is not in the Life Path Posts category and thus, should not display per the settings in Blog list options.
    Yes I have a blog page set and that is the one the Blog menu item links to

    If you have a page set as your post page from Settings > Reading you need to remove this as it will override the blog template. Leaving that as blank should fix your issue.

    OK that worked, but I had to change the styling for the main blog page from .blog to the actual page id. But at least it works now. Thanks
