Exclude categories from feeds and archives.

  • Hi all.

    I want to exclude some categories of my blog from appear on the feeds of the blog, and on the archives. The reason is simple. I′m using some categories of posts to make an faq section, and links section (instead of internal link system), things that doesn′t catch good into feeds and archives.

    There′s any plugin or method to exclude those categories from the feeds and from the archives?

    Thanks for your time :3.

  • The only way I know of is to change the feed links to ?feed=rss2&cat=3,4,6 and change the category numbers to the ones you want to include. All other categories would be excluded.

    To exclude a category from my feed, I have a snippet like this in my theme’s functions.php file:

    <?php
    function myFilter($query) {
    if ($query->is_feed) {
    $query->set('cat','-19');
    }

    return $query;
    }

    add_filter('pre_get_posts','myFilter');
    ?>

    Category 19 is the one I don’t want in the feed.

    This plugin does all of that:

    Ahh… I’d never noticed that plugin handled RSS too.
    Thanks for that.

    Thanks you very much, people ^_^!!

    I got the plugin, and the snipet (I like work with code), and it works.

    YOU′RE NUMBER ONE
