Exclude category or specific posts from related posts

Hi there,

Would something like this help?

Yes, it should solve the problem.

Glad to hear :)

Hi, Can you help with a sample code, struggling to solve it by myself.

Try this:
add_filter( 'generate_category_post_navigation', '__return_true' );

Adding PHP: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

I got this part, the code I was asking for:

If I want this to work for a specific category rather than the whole website.

Try this:

add_action( 'wp', 'lh_category_navigation' );
function lh_category_navigation() {
    if ( is_category( 'CATEGORY NAME' ) ) {
        add_filter( 'generate_category_post_navigation', '__return_true' );
    }
}

This works, Thanks!

No problem :)

Hello, Is it possible to prevent some specific posts from showing in the post navigation? For example, if I have some posts unsuitable for kids, and I don't want them to show under any post navigation, how would I exclude these posts?

Hi,

Consider creating an R-18 category for posts that are not suitable for kids/minors.

You can then exclude that R-18 category the same way you've excluded the other categories.

Yeah, that would work but it is not ideal in the current situation, which is why I reopened the topic.

Is there any post specific situation, maybe excluding with post ID, something like that?

It's pretty complicated to modify the WordPress posts loop like that.

A plugin like WP Show Posts should help:

Then you can use the exclusion option:

Alright, I will keep at it, thanks.
