I was using a plugin to exclude categories from my sidebar and I excluded that one it seemed to also alter the front page, so I removed the plugin.

It shows nothing. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [I want only one category on my front page but it will not display](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-want-only-one-category-on-my-front-page-but-it-will-not-display/) * Thread Starter [dsharp2590](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dsharp2590/) * (@dsharp2590) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-want-only-one-category-on-my-front-page-but-it-will-not-display/#post-8179072) * Ok I activated the default Twenty Eleven theme, copy/pasted the same code into it’s functions.php. And this is how it looks right now… It shows category 5 but not 7 still, it’s as though the code did nothing. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [I want only one category on my front page but it will not display](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-want-only-one-category-on-my-front-page-but-it-will-not-display/) * Thread Starter [dsharp2590](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dsharp2590/) * (@dsharp2590) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-want-only-one-category-on-my-front-page-but-it-will-not-display/#post-8178605) * This is interesting. I had some unused categories under blog posts, and then i deleted them (they had no posts). For some reason this caused no categories at all to show up on the front page. It’s like it doesn’t seem to want to recognize that Blog posts are category 5 and Facts is category 7, so it just shows nothing at all. - This reply was modified 9 years, 8 months ago by [dsharp2590](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dsharp2590/). * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [I want only one category on my front page but it will not display](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-want-only-one-category-on-my-front-page-but-it-will-not-display/) * Thread Starter [dsharp2590](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dsharp2590/) * (@dsharp2590) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-want-only-one-category-on-my-front-page-but-it-will-not-display/#post-8178560) * Yes, when I go to categories in my dashboard, I have a post category titled “ facts”, when i hover over it, it says …category&tagID=7… on the bottom of my browser. Yet none of them show up, regardless of the code. Like only categories 1 and 5 show up, but category 7 does not. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Home Page Only Shows up to 10 Blog Posts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/home-page-only-shows-up-to-10-blog-posts/) * Thread Starter [dsharp2590](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dsharp2590/) * (@dsharp2590) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/home-page-only-shows-up-to-10-blog-posts/#post-8174198) * wondering if anyone else can think of a fix for this? * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Home Page Only Shows up to 10 Blog Posts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/home-page-only-shows-up-to-10-blog-posts/) * Thread Starter [dsharp2590](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dsharp2590/) * (@dsharp2590) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/home-page-only-shows-up-to-10-blog-posts/#post-7702747) * Thanks but it didn’t seem to work or do anything. * Also as a side note, I tried removing the code for categories altogether.. so what I should see is just all my blog posts on the front page, 5 at a time. Instead what I see is just 5 of my posts on the first page, and then 1 post from another category on page 2, and then nothing. It seems like the issue is beyond just the categories code like the front posts page is just somehow affected but I can’t tell how. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Home Page Only Shows up to 10 Blog Posts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/home-page-only-shows-up-to-10-blog-posts/) * Thread Starter [dsharp2590](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dsharp2590/) * (@dsharp2590) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/home-page-only-shows-up-to-10-blog-posts/#post-7702739) * Yes I am. I only want one category (7) to show up in my home page. This is the code I’m using to restrict it: * ``` if( is_home() ) { $args = array( 'category__in' => array(7) ); $args = ( $wp_query && $wp_query->query ) ? array_merge( $wp_query->query , $args ) : $args; query_posts( $args ); } ``` * I tried to remove it just now, but that didn’t fix the issue, rather it made even less stuff show up. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Home Page Only Shows up to 10 Blog Posts](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/home-page-only-shows-up-to-10-blog-posts/) * Thread Starter [dsharp2590](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dsharp2590/) * (@dsharp2590) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/home-page-only-shows-up-to-10-blog-posts/#post-7702688) * Still having the problem. I think that there’s something somewhere in the code that won’t show up more than 10. If I try 10 per page, then only the first page works. * My theme is zeeMagazine if that helps. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Blog posts are displayed as text only, no table or image](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blog-posts-are-displayed-as-text-only-no-table-or-image/) * Thread Starter [dsharp2590](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dsharp2590/) * (@dsharp2590) * [9 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blog-posts-are-displayed-as-text-only-no-table-or-image/#post-7701624) * Never mind I actually got it to work!

Any ideas on how to get around that? how do I “handcraft” the excerpt? Viewing 12 replies - 1 through 12 (of 12 total)
