Recent comments
 

Is there a way to have the recent comments appear on the gallery homepage but have all comments from a specific cat (501) excluded?

Only if you modify the query for that block with some sort of mod like add this to the query

AND cat != 501

I am using PhotoPost Pro with vb integration, can you tell me where in which template I would find the query please?

Not in a template try looking in your index.php for the recent comments query.

Thank you Chuck.

Is this correct please?

Yeah looks fine to me.

Thanks, much appreciated :)

enjoy your weekend

Sorry to bother you again Chuck but this is not working for me.

When I use the code above it stops the whole of the recent comments section from showing. I checked over the code and noticed that elsewhere on here you have recommended using
the difference being the inverted commas around the cat, so I tried that as well. Again I got the same results.

Finally, to be absolutely sure, I tried it with a different cat (as the one I want to block is currently not open) but again I had the same issues.

I don't know what I am missing but I would appreciate any advice.

How about this?

AND p.cat != 501

Yes that has done the job!!

Thanks very much Chuck.

Not a problem enjoy your evening.
