Hi,

You can add more this code to Customize > Custom CSS to hide this category on Categories widget:

.widget_categories ul li.cat-item-123 { display: none;  }

Note Important: You need to change number 123 on the above code to category ID of category slider.

You can read this guide to know how to find category ID of a category.

Best Regards,

Hi,

I think you should use featured category to select the posts you want to display for your slider. Please do following steps:

\

1/ Create a new category - Example:  "Slider"

\

2/ Add all the posts you want to display on the slider to this category.

\

3/ Go to Customize > Featured Slider Options > on "Select Featured Category" > select category "Slider" and check to "Hide Featured Category" to hide this category appears on your site.

\

Best Regards,

How do I exclude the category I selected for "Popular Posts" (my "Recommended Books" category) from the Featured Slider so I don't double up posts as shown in the attached image.

Or is it possible to change the Customizer to allow us to select (or type in) more than one category to include on the Featured Slider instead of having to pick just one.
