[wp-hackers] Hide category

[Dan Gayle]

Actually, that is the method that we use to exclude other categories  
from the blog because we use it as a CMS for a more extensive site. It  
excludes categories great, content and all.

However, we don't want to exclude the post itself from anything. We  
just don't want it to show on the site pages that it belongs to a  
certain category.

Love that plugin, by the way. Wish it would have greater functionality  
for excluding pages, but ah well.

Thanks,
Dan
