 * Hi
 * I have 2 short codes on one page, that take the posts from one category.
    But
   the Exclude Duplicates function isn’t working. I did it this way, because I want
   the first post to have a different look than the rest in the category, but it
   shows the latest post in the first and second part… I only want to show the latest
   post in the first part.
 * Can someone help please? it’s very urgent
