   Could anybody tell me how to prevent any posts in category ID=18 appearing in the posts on my home page.

   I think I have seen code that did this by writing a filter in the functions.php.

   Using WordPress 2.7.1

   kind regards

   Thanks for your reply tried what you said but it took ages for my page to load and it gave me approx 24 versions of the same post and my side bars and footers disappeared

   Below is the code I used

   <?php
   if (is_home()) {
   query_posts("cat=-18");
   }
   ?>

   Regards

   And *where* did you place that? If it gave you 24 version of the same page, then I'm guessing you put it *within* the Loop. The "query" goes *outside* the Loop.
