Hi,

Thanks for the post!

There is actually a couple of ways that you could handle doing this, the link below should help you come up with a solution for this question:

http://www.interactivetools.com/iforum/Products_C2/Article_Manager_F2/Exclude_category%28s%29_from_headlines_and_index_P47210/

This link basically goes over two options, the first being that you could use a server side include to display only certain categories articles on the main page of your website. The second option is a bit of JavaScript that will filter out which categories articles you don' want displayed on your index page. :)

I would suggest giving this link a read through and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask!

Hi,

Thanks for the follow-up!

I just posted a possible solution on the othe thread which you can see here:

http://www.interactivetools.com/forum/gforum.cgi?post=48933#48933

I basically recommended changing this line of code:

Code

if ('$cat_name_je$' != 'Reggaeton News' && '$cat_name_je$' != 'Reggaeton News')

To this:

Code

if ('$cat_name_je$' != 'Reggaeton News')

So your script should now look like this:

Code

 <!-- templatecell : row_summary -->   
<tr>   
<td><p>   
<script>   
if ('$cat_name_je$' != 'Reggaeton News')   
{   
document.write("<span class='title'>$cat_name_je$</span><br>");   
document.write("$art_name_je$<br>");   
}   
</script>   
</td>   
</tr>   
<!-- /templatecell : row_summary -->

Give this a try and let me know how it works out for you! If you and other questions feel free to ask :)

Hi there,

Rather than having two threads running about this at the same time, I'll direct you to the other thread you've been commenting on, as it looks like the content is being duplicated on both. Take a look here:
