Hiding posts

Well, I talked about hiding categories one the homepage earlier here and here and it took no more then 5 minutes to fix. I had originally dreaded thinking about it since I thought the process would include manually modifying my theme but with a 2 second search on Google I found the solution. Category Visibility Plugin solves all my problems easily and with a few more usable features like hiding posts from non-registered users. Maybe I’ll request an option to hide posts for registered users to handle the review-me posts.

Hopefully the tweet digests won’t overwhelm your visit now. They’ll still show in RSS which I prefer.

  • Yeah, I'd prefer everything still show in RSS, which I would worry about in the "hiding posts from non-registered users" functionality. Hiding them for *registered* users (like you suggest) would probably do exactly what you're looking for for those reviews, but the other way around (I think) would mean that RSS readers wouldn't pick up the hidden posts.
