   I would like to exclude some pages from my wp_pages menu. But I need to exclude pages by title.

   I came across something very close to what I need below.

   function categories_without_title_attribute() {
   $categories = wp_list_categories('echo=0');
   $categories = preg_replace('/title=\"(.*?)\"/','',$categories);
   echo $categories;
   }

   It provides a function to call pages without the title attribute.
   What I need is to amend it so I can exclude pages that have specific titles. For example, let's say 'About Us' and 'Privacy Policy'.

   I have tried many variations but no effect. A number ofpeople have asked for this solution but there is nothing that works posted yet.

   ANy preg_replace experts have a solution that could build on the above function?

   Many thanks

   It would be better if you exclude by id unless there is a compelling reason otherwise to make an exception.

   Cannot exclude by Id because the page is created dynamically. The title is fixed but the name (slug) and id will vary.

   $page = get_page_by_title('Page Title');
   echo $page->ID;
