Thanks for clearing that up. I guess this is not really the distinction I am trying to make, but that does not matter: if “asides” show how certain categories of posts can be treated differently than others on the front page, I can use that code as a starting point to just not show posts from a certain category. Then code something up in my sidebar to show it there if that is what I want to do. So I will look into it, thanks a bunch.

Thinking about it this way, I guess even the “asides” code brings more complexity than I need. I already generally know where posts are printed out in index.php, so I probably only have to add some <?php if (the_category() == ‘bla’):> logic to it and it should work… I will try that and report back. Thanks again.
