Anyhow, no I didn’t get any emails nor anything in ‘junk’ although…my juno is weird. It’s not you, it’s me! lol.

I worked through it for the most part and although it’s not working totally out like your example, I’m happy enough with it.

My question now is…excluding a cat from the feedburner. I am wondering if by changing that code, (as in your example) then I would have to have everyone RE-SIGN UP for my feeds.??

I found something people are saying is an alternative to changing the feed, and it goes in the functions file. Here’s the code:

function myFeedExcluder($query) {
if ($query->is_feed) {
$query->set(‘cat’,'-431′);
}
return $query;
}

add_filter(‘pre_get_posts’,'myFeedExcluder’);

I’m not sure if it’ll work. Have you ever heard of this working or is it just better to change the feed?

Thanks for your patience! Sheila

Basically, if you name a file cat-319.php, when a user clicks that category archive, WordPress calls the cat-319.php file rather than category.php. This is known as template hierarchy, so if you search for Wordrpess Template hierarchy, you should find a lot of answers to your questions.

I just don’t understand how to make one category of posts look different from the singlepost.php.

This just doesn’t seem to be possible.

Create a new Theme file named category-319.php (which is my file in question’s #)

Possibly copied from my next file in my themes that is in the heirarchy, which would be archives.php BUT modified somehow.

Then I have to somehow link the new cat319 file to that catagory so that when that cat comes up or is clicked on, it will pull it’s info from the new cat319 file.
WOULD I PLACE SOMETHING IN THE LOOP TO LINK?

OR. Am I supposed to open a new php file in the FILE MANAGER (not my theme files)for Cat 319?

I tried doing the separate cat page again like you did, and it’s still not working for me. Arghhhhh

Apart from using the thumbs plugin, I don’t know how to automatically pull thumbnails onto another page. I think the thumbs plugin is really the best method. However, when I implemented this plugin, it brought my site down due to the heavy pull on the database. I believe this may have been due to BlueHost’s sensitive CPU exceeded errors trigger. You can configure the thumbs plugin to pull only posts from a specific category.

Yes, if I remember correctly, you create a cat-87.php file (or whatever your category is). Then include the code I added in the post. I’m not a PHP expert, so I rely on clips that I can pull together. Were you able to get anything working?
