Hello,
After the last update, my blog is showing ‘NEWS’ category too although in the blog element in Avia Layout Builder, I have deselected it.

Can you please tell me how to hide this category on the blog page ( http://www.xandrianoir.com/blog ) but only show on the News page ( http://www.xandrianoir.com/news )?

Thanks
XN

On your Settings -> Reading what is your option for the Blog Posts there?

Hi XN,

I don’t see the pages from News category on the blog page. Did you get it solved? It could have been a cache issue.

Hi Xandria,

I thought you meant posts from that category, not the category widget in the sidebar.
You need to edit the themes/enfold/includes/admin/register-widget-area.php file to exclude the news category.

Or here is another solution here

Thank you Victoria for your reply. This is a bit confusing for me . I am not a developer, sorry. Is there an easy way or a css code that I can insert instead?

Hi Xandria,

Here is the code you can put in Enfold > General Styling > Quick Css, if it does not work, put into themes/enfold/css/custom.css
```
.cat-item.cat-item-162 {
  display: none;
}
```
If you need further assistance please let us know.

Thank you Victoria for the help. Yes now it is fine.

I also create the following thread but it was locked on the basis of similarity. Can you please have a look. I was told it is relevant to this thread.

Hi Xandria,

The blog page is a page you built with the Advanced Layout Builder and the /news page is a category page which is using a different template. To customize it you need to add code to functions.php. Here is a thread for you to consider

Hi Victoria,

Thank you for your prompt reply.

I created both pages with Advanced Layout Builder. I just checked I did not set the sidebar on the News page. Once I just set it to right sidebar, the look turned into my Blog page :))
And I added the excerpts in the excerpt area too.

Sorry for my stupidity.

Regards,

Xandria
