Hello, I have a website: http://csscharm.com and I use wordpress on it. The main categories on the front page show 7 entries, the june archive shows 8, the 2008 archive shows 7, the tags for white sites show 9. I have in my admin panel: Blog pages show at most 9 posts I use the standard "loop" except for a category exclusion: <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> <?php if ( !(in_category('32')) || !is_home() ) { ?> Code (markup): Do you think that the category exclusion would just not show the post, but still count it as the limit? So if cat 32 post is within time frame that it WOULD show if allowed, it doesn't, and is still counted as if it DID show? I hope that makes sense...If anyone has any ideas, I would appreciate it. Thanks!
