   Hi everyone, I've just installed my first WordPress, very nice.

   Currently I have two categories labeled: News and Articles. When you load up the index page it shows the posts from both these categories, is there a way so only the News posts show on the index page?

   See if the examples of The Loop help.

   Hi!

   I want to do the same thing, but it's not working for me. I'm a newbie so the solution is hard to find..

   Here's my code from the index.php

   _________________________

   <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

   <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

   <div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
   <h2>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
   <small><?php c2c_the_author_image(); ?><br><?php the_time('l j. F Y,') ?> kl <?php the_time('H:i') ?></small>

   <div class="entry">
   <?php the_excerpt_reloaded(70, '<img><br>', 'content', TRUE, '| Les mer |', FALSE); ?>

   </div>

   <p class="postmetadata">Hører til i <?php the_category(', ') ?> | <?php edit_post_link('Rediger','','|'); ?> <?php comments_popup_link('Ingen tilbakemeldinger »', '1 tilbakemelding »', '% tilbakemeldinger »'); ?>
   </div>

   <?php endwhile; ?>

   _________________________

   I guess the example in The Loop help is working, but as you can see I have modified my code so I don't want to just copy and paste the example code (I don't want to lose what I've modified). I tried to implement the example code into the code above, but I got errors and since I'm a newbie I don't know how to get it to work. Can anyone help please?

   Thanks in advance :)

   To AnthonyC and Jorgent, try this plugin:

   http://www.nmyworld.com/wordpress/2005/04/elegant-category-invisibility-69/

   I´m using it in my blog, to show only "news" categories on the frontpage, and left the rest for viewing by a direct link for their categories (normal, or childs). It´s works perfect ^^.

   Thanks for the link Madcore! It's exactly what I'm looking for, but it seems like it doesn't work without the default permalink structure. I get 404 errors when I click on my post titles. I don't want to remove my permalink structure.. Too bad if I can't use this great plugin :(

   Sorry about the nagging, but I really want this to work :) I'm using this permalink structure: /%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/

   The plugin seems to work, but when I click the post titles or the "read more" button, I get a 404 error. When I look at the url it looks like a permalink problem. I guess everything would work nice if I removed the structure, but I don't want to do that cause I need it for statistics etc.

   Can anyone please help me? Thanks in advance :)
