# Archive Static Pages?

 * Hello Everyone!
    I made a static page for an Oscar-contest between friends. I
   made a static page with the form so my friends could submit their entries. Next
   year we will repeat the contest, but I don’t want the static page to be in my
   sidebar until then!
 * Is there a way to archive the static pages, that is not delete them but make 
   them dissappear from the sidebar?
 * Thank you for your help!

 * You could try giving it a password. That would likely leave it out of the list.
   Note I’m just guessing, but it’s worth a try.

 * You can exclude the page when calling the page list in the sidebar.

 * If you added it to your links list, you can toggle visibility for it. People 
   would still be able to access it if they could guess the URL.

 * Check out the exclude parameter for `wp_list_pages()`:
