My third one finally recognized the upgrade – got it done as well. Yay!

Me too. Upgraded two, waiting on third. I just assume it’s slow at picking it up (although weird, all three are hosted on the same server). Anyway I’ll check again tomorrow but glad to know I’m not the only one!

Nevermind! I think I just figured it out myself, I was missing the ” around true!! Doh!

Do you want the posts related to the categories selected for Home section to be only excluded from the sidebar widgets? (Recent Posts, Recent Commants, Calendar)

How would I make it so the categories I have excluded from Home be excluded from Home AND the sidebar widgets, not just one or the other? I want my specific category NOT to show up in the calendar.

Also, I have a list of monthly archives in my sidebar. I have selected a category not to show up in archives, so if you click on the month anything posted in that month in my category doesn’t show up, as it should. But if there are ONLY posts in that category for the whole month (no other categories posted to), it still shows a link and then gives an error saying nothing was found. I would prefer if it would be excluded from the list all (if no valid posts are in the month, that month isn’t linked). Is that possible?

This is what you want, I think..

<?php
$temp_query = $wp_query;
$catposts = ‘cat=CAT_ID&paged=1&order=DESC’;
query_posts($catposts);
while (have_posts()) : the_post();
echo ‘<a href=”‘;
the_permalink();
echo ‘”>’;
the_title();
echo “”;
endwhile;
$wp_query = $temp_query;
?>
