 * 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](http://freebiesdock.com/freemium-wordpress-theme/)”
   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.

 * 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.
