Default Categories

Hi – you need to edit your theme’s index.php file

it is found in /wp-content/themes/{theme-name}

In that file, find lines that will look something like this:

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

Just before them, add these lines:

<?php if ( is_front_page() ) {
         query_posts("cat=1");
      }
?>

You must find out what the category ID code for your family category is, and use that number instead of “1” in the query_posts line.

On the Manage Categories page in the WP admin section, point at the name Family, and look at your browser’s status bar in the lower left corner. You will see a URL, and the last part of that URL will say &cat_ID={a number} the number is the category ID – use it instead of the 1 I put in my example.
