Hello,
how can I remove a certain category from the related articles in a cloud based template?
I found this older post, where Bogdan B. shows a way to do this for the standard template of an older version of Newspaper by editing td_module_single_base.php.
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/remove-category-from-related-articles-filter/
Which file do I have to edit for cloud based templates with Newspaper X?
Hi,
For the cloud you’ll need to make the change that Bogdan show in this file wp-content/plugins/td-cloud-library/includes/tdb_config.php -> http://prntscr.com/q37yee
Thank you!
Hi,
Yes, the “,” need to be add at the end of this line -> http://prntscr.com/q3dsec after that add the category_id.
Hope this will work.
Thank you!
Hello Calin,
yes, this is what i did -> https://prnt.sc/q3e9ol but posts from that category still appear as related articles, although I also cleared the cache.
Any idea?
Hi,
Ill ‘make some investigations and I’ll let you know what is wrong with this settings and what need to be done to remove the category.
Thank you!
Hello Calin,
it’s nearly a week now and I hope, the answer has not been forgotten. Please tell me where to put the code to exclude the category. Thank you!
Hi,
Please try to make the changes in wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/common/wp_booster/td_data_source.php and add like this
$wp_query_args['category__not_in'] = array('3291');

Hope this will help you!
Thank you!
Hello Calin,
thank you! Works great!
I put this line in all three case sections, to make sure, the category does not appear no matter if I filter the related articles by tag, author or category.
Hi,
I’m glad that I was able to help you!
Have a nice day!
