Is there a way to hide a certain category from the Ethos homepage recent posts section (I am not using a static homepage)? I want this specific category to only appear on the sidebar on the homepage, not in the main post section.

Thank you for your help,
Olivia

Thanks for writing in.

You could check this link below for more information about that:

Hope it helps.

Thanks.

Thanks for your response, but no, that entry is not really what I’m looking for.

I don’t want to use the filterable index feature because there’s no pagination option and it does not display multiple categories at once; it only displays one category at a time and even at that it is very clunky.

I want to a achieve a very basic task. I want to use the regular ‘Your Latest Posts’ homepage and I want to hide one specific category from appearing on the main portion of the page. And I DO want this category to appear on the sidebar.

Thanks.

Please add this under Custom > CSS in the Customizer.

.blog .post.category-slug {
	display: none;
}

Change the slug to the actual category slug(name).

Hope it helps, Cheers!

Let us know if you need anything else.

Thanks. Have a lovely day! 🙂

I tried your css code in the custom, and it works. But actually on my website, the home page displays a blank space instead of section hidden . Is it possible to remove this white space ?

This is because you are using masonry layout. Try removing the provided CSS code and adding following JS code under Custom > JavaScript in the Customizer:

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
  $('.blog .post.category-news')
    .css({'visibility': 'hidden', 'display': 'none'})
    .removeClass("hentry item masonry-brick");
});

Thanks!

Thanks a lot. Really !
