Hide All Posts From A Category Except On The Category Archive

  • I had done this before but now cannot remember how I did it!

    Basically I have a category called “Haiku.” I’m using a plugin to hide that category from the main feed and from RSS feeds.

    Now what I want it for it to also be hidden from the monthly archives BUT NOT hidden from its own category archive. So if you go to the “January 2020” archive you won’t see them but if you click on “Haiku” it will take you to that category page and they will be seen there.

    This plugin has an option to also hide from archives but only ALL archives, which means the “Haiku” category archive is blank because they’re all hidden if you select that option. Help! Thanks!

  • The plugin is likely filtering the query using the exclude parameter, or the cat parameter with a negative value.
    You can add your own filter to undo that if it matches the category archive, but you need to look at the code to see what priority the plugin is using, etc. so it would make sense that you ask this question in the plugin’s support forum. That way the person that knows can answer, and all the plugin users could get the answer or fix that results.

    Well I was hoping to just alter my archive template manually as that’s what I did before with a different theme but just can’t remember what I did.
