PE Category Filter

விளக்கம்

This plugin allows you to exclude posts that belong to certain categories from your home page, while still being reachable from the inner sections of your site.

This is an ad-hoc solution that aims to do one thing, and do it right, with the smallest footprint possible (hopefully). So please note the following:

  • The functionality of this plugin can not be limited to a given widget on the home page. For example:

Given a the category “MyCategory” from which you want to exclude posts on the home page, and at the same time you want to display posts of the same “MyCategory” in a widget that is also located in the home page, will not be possible.

Such a functionality, in my opinion, would be overkilling and does not represent the approach taken by this plugin.

  • The focus of this plugin is simplicity, performance and correctness of the code.

You can see this plugin in action the following projects:

  • http://asteriskfaqs.org – Important VoIP community project.
  • http://centosfaq.org
  • http://slackware-es.com – Spanish version of the Slackware Linux project’s website (Spanish)
