Help needed with Freemium theme.

    Previously I used the Smashing Magazine’s WordPress.Fun theme and it had a “Front page” of sorts which I could manipulate to show only certain categories.

    Now that I’ve changed to “Freemium” I’m trying to do the same as well.

    Or rather, I just wish to have all the posts that fall under the “Private” category to not appear on the front page automatically.

    I’ll provide additional information and links if needed as I’m not sure what’s required.

    This is where you’ll want to start:

    Hi Glover,

    Thanks for that. After some twiddling I managed to figure out where to put the appropriate line and I just C+P-ed the code I had in my previous theme.

    And then I realized that I could actually simplify it a little more with the help of the page you showed me so THANKS!

    However, still need more help.

    I used to have a “Featured” part of the page where I can “sticky” certain posts to show all the time. I’m planning to have the right sidebar of the theme to be made into something like that but have no idea how I could go about doing that. Any suggestions?

    I’m trying to find a widget that could do that, but I’d prefer a code that would allow me to add an image to the specific post too.

    Problem! After I inserted the <?php query_posts("cat=-13"); ?> line, I cannot view by categories anymore. When I choose categories, the posts that appear are still the ones that I set to be queried.
