How do I hide a specific category of posts from author archive pages (preferably without changing core theme files)?
Hi
Unfortunately this can be achieved only by modifying the query for the author page. The query it’s made in loop.php file: http://screencast.com/t/qXmAPYgkXA8
This is a complex task which involve many customizations in theme files and unfortunately I can’t provide a solution now. I found here some information which may help you to customize the query: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/query_posts
Please consider that this is a complex task which require advanced coding skills, also many customization and tests. If you can’t do this by yourself my advice is to look for someone which can help you with this or hire a freelancer to do it for you as we can’t offer any type of custom work at the moment.
Thanks!
Thanks for the input, but good news… I found a plugin that works perfectly:
