Excluding category form home page code not working?

  • Hi Everyone,

    I’m trying to exclude a certain category form my WP homepage. I found the below code on the internet but unfortunately it’s not working. I’m adding the syntax to the functions.php page in my theme but it’s not working. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks

function exclude_category_home( $query ) {
if ( $query->is_home ) {
$query->set( 'cat', '-8' );
}
return $query;
}

add_filter( 'pre_get_posts', 'exclude_category_home' );
