I sure am grateful for this. Couldn't find the "not" stuff anywhere in the WP Codex or anywhere else on the damn intertubes. Works like a charm. .-= TaosJohn´s last blog ..Carrizozo- I Hardly Knew Ye =-.

Thank you!! I'm not a coder and was hard to get different header for a static page that is also a posts page. ”Not” Statements is what I learned today. Thank you again! Marcelo’s last blog post..Infografia: Uma força visual para a compreensão

Hi Simone,

I’m not familiar with the backend of that particular widget. You may be able to find instructions in its readme.txt file (should be in the plugin folder). Also try seeing if it appears everywhere by default when you don’t set parameters.

Thanks. I am trying to get a tag cloud to display everywhere on my site (pages, archives, main page, posts etc. )
What language do I use and do I insert it in the ‘widget logic’ section of the tag cloud?

I decided it probably won’t work. I would have to query the list first and then trim the ones I want out, which I think would be prohibitively slow. We are just going to stick with the “premium content” category and not worry about it. Thanks though!

That’s a good question, Bill. I don’t think that the_category() has an exclude option like listing categories does. Checked the codex too and didn’t see one.

But if this category only shows up on posts that are in it (which is what the the_category() call is for), then shouldn’t only people paying for premium content–if that’s your subscriber model–be able to see that post anyway? It’s not perfect because they’ll still see it, but if you name it something like “Premium content” then I don’t think it’ll look bad.

This was very helpful, thanks. Do you know of a way to exclude certain category names from displaying in the the_category() function? I use a special category for subscriber only content and I won’t want that name to display in the category list on the post if possible.

Perfect! If only the codex had been this easy to walk through!
