I believe I’m trying to accomplish the same thing. I would ask that if a moderator is feeling like a jerk, then to please NOT reply here, vent your frustrations somewhere else. I don’t feel like getting yelled at right now.

Anyways…

I have a page titled “News”, and I want POSTS with the category of News to show up on this page called News. I want the posts from the category of News to be EXCLUDED from the main page.

Yes, I’ve read the pages and pages of documentation, and I turn to the forums.

I’ve created a page template called news.php. I’ve entered in the loop “beginning” and “end”, but I’m just unsure about what goes in the middle. I’m guessing it’s something like:
<?php if (in_category(‘3’)) continue; ?>

(news is category 3) This doesn’t seem to be working though, I’m sure I’m just missing a bit of code.

I also know that I want to EXCLUDE category 3 (news) from my main page, but I’ll get to that after I complete the first step.

Any suggestions? And seriously, don’t give me a link and say “read this”. On every page, there are 10 more links to read. This stuff is supposed to be easier than this.

OUCH!!! maybe show a little sympathy? After all, the topic searches in these forums actually suck. I’ve been frustrated the last few weeks.

There are many, many, MANY questions that have been posted, and nobody responds.

Another option is to edit the publish date, so it goes to the back page.

I’m missing categories as well. 24 of them.

I wouldn’t mind, but I want to create categories, and it’s saying the same name already exists. How can I find and delete these, so I can create them again?
