 * I am learning to work with php.
 * I want to exclude post #8 (Test of exclude)in my test site at [http://www.secondlifegolf.com](http://www.secondlifegolf.com).
 * I can exclude it with this command in the sidebar file:
    `<?php wp_list_pages('
   exclude=8' ); ?>`
 * Also in the sidebar is this command:
    `<?php wp_list_pages('title_li=<h2>Pages
   </h2>'); ?>`
 * How do I combine the two so that I get a single instance of the Page list with“
   Page” in H2 and item 8 excluded?
 * Thanks

 * Just for the record: you are not excluding a post but a [Page](http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages)!
   Big difference…
 * `<?php wp_list_pages('exclude=8&title_li=<h2>Pages</h2>'); ?>`

 * Yes, I “mispoke”. I DID mean a Page, not a Post. Thank you for your help.
