Please I need help on how to restrict the categories that show up in block header titles. I want to make sure that it is only the related categories in the block title appear. I’ve tried everything I could possibly try but no headway.

Am using the default Newspaper 8 theme demo on Local host but there is a problem when I hid the author, it keeps displaying. Is there a way to remove it?
Please help!!!
I attached a picture circling what i exactly mean it in case I didn’t express it correctly.

Hi,

The author can be removed in the block settings here

The ajax filter can be customized in terms of what categories will be displayed. You can enter category IDs here

If no categories are entered there, all will be displayed. But if you enter category IDs only those will be shown. Like in this example

All the available block settings and options are mentioned in this guide

Wow! Can I give a man hug? Thanks a lot….
I did similar thing with block category filter and it wasn’t working out well so i gave up too quickly. Maybe you can give me a practical example of using block category filter too.

Thanks again

Hi,

There are options to filter categories as well. If you want the grid or block to display posts from a particular category, select it in the drop-down

If you want to display posts from all the categories leave it on default (All categories).
The multiple categories filter will allow more advanced filtering.
It works with category ID’s as well. Enter the desired IDs and the element will display posts from them only.
Of maybe you want to display posts from all the categories, except one or more. Enter the IDs with a “-” before the ID (multiple IDs have to be separated with a comma)

Please let us know if you have further questions, or you need further help.

Thanks
