Hi
I need to exclude a category (ID 36) from the archives, so that months do not show in the wp_get_archives list if they only contain posts from that category. It looks like I need to use the getarchives_join filter, but my SQL is a bit ropey and I've got stuck.
I've got this in my functions.php:
add_filter( 'getarchives_join', 'no_cat36_in_archives' );
function no_cat36_in_archives( $join ) {
global $wpdb;
$join = "INNER JOIN {$wpdb->prefix}term_relationships ON ({$wpdb->prefix}posts.ID = {$wpdb->prefix}term_relationships.object_id)
INNER JOIN {$wpdb->prefix}term_taxonomy
ON ({$wpdb->prefix}term_relationships.term_taxonomy_id = {$wpdb->prefix}term_taxonomy.term_taxonomy_id)
WHERE 1=1
AND {$wpdb->prefix}term_taxonomy.taxonomy = 'category'
AND {$wpdb->prefix}term_taxonomy.term_id <> 36";
return $join;
}
but now no archive months are showing at all. Can anyone help me out with the SQL I need to exclude category 36 from the archives?
