    I have followed the directions I’ve found in several places in the support forum, but all seem to lead to a dead end for me.

    All I want is the necessary code and where to insert it to:
    make my category 143 only show on my Tips page.

    I have a new page template for Tips page.
    I have a category of posts with id=143.

    I know how to exclude category 143 from the front page and that is working well.

    Isn’t there some easy way?

    Thanks for your help!

    Do you need to create a page for this.

    If you want to show all the posts in the category ‘foo’ you should be able to go to yourdomainname.com/category/foo

    Does that do want you’re looking for ?

    Easy way more than query_posts? No I don’t think so 🙂

    Put this before the main loop? query_posts('cat=143');

    You were MOST helpful, PHPanos! Thank you! I had tried many other harder ways and they all came to a crashing halt for one reason or another.

    For anyone else who might want to use this beautiful little line of code, put this just after: <div id=”main”> and before: <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
    Don’t forget to add the <?php and ?>

    <?php query_posts(‘cat=143’); ?>

    Thanks again for your help!
