I'm trying to get all my category "orig" posts on my main page, and then all the posts under category "news" on another page that looks exactly like my home page. How exactly would I do that? Is there a simple way to do this? Thanks for your time.

Codex is your friend
http://codex.wordpress.org/Separating_Categories -
Not sure about that page in the Codex in regard to the OP.
What s/he wants is an "exclude categories" plugin and and a category-xx.php template.

Posted 3 years ago #I'm still kind of confused, I found this but it looks like that would only help me get rid of the news posts on the main page. I don't get how to get another page with just the news posts on it.

Posted 3 years ago #There's of course the category archive. I exclude one category from my index and have a link in my header to only that category. Not too fancy, but it works. See this thread.
I hadn't thought of Otto's suggestion for a separate php file for that category. I might look into that some time, but I fear that I don't have the capabilities to actually make something like that. -
Posted 3 years ago #Just got this to work, here's what I did. Seems like the most simple way. I went here: http://www.codehooligans.com/2008/04/27/simply-exclude-plugin/ and used that function to get only the posts in my original cat id to show up on the home page. Then I tagged all my other posts as "news" and made a link to the tag page on my site.

Thanks for the help!
