   Hello,

   How can I hide child posts under a parent category? For example, if I click on a parent category archive I only want to see the posts from that parent category and hide all posts from child categories.

   When I click on the child category archive I'd like to only see the posts from that child category.

   Thanks,
   - Andrew Heler

   you will need to edit category.php (if your theme does not have a category.php, make a copy of archive.php and save it as category.php)

   before the start of the loop, add a custom query;
   example:

   <?php global $wp_query;
   $args = array_merge( $wp_query->query, array( 'category__in' => array(get_query_var('cat'))) );
   query_posts( $args ); ?>
