Hi,

Thank you for purchased our theme.

1/ With exclude some categories in the latest posts on homepage - this theme already supports it, you don't need to use a plugin to do that. Please deactivate the plugin and check option for it via Customize > Homepage Options > Exclude specific categories from latest posts on Homepage.

2/ For create a blog page, I recommend you use WPBakery Page Builder plugin to do that.

You can check guide here to know how to get WPBakery Page Builder.

After that, go to Pages > Add New a page > select Template for this page is "Page VC Builder With Sidebar" or "Page VC Builder No Sidebar" > and use WPBakery to config this blog page by use element "Soledad Latest Posts" from WPBakery - and you can exclude any categories you want on blog page by use this element also.

Best Regards,

PenciDesign

Hey Guys,

i use your theme for my photography site and it looks really great! Thanks!

Now my problem:

I use the startpage with the latest blog post and exclude different post categories via a plugin (category excluder). Works fine and show only my latest client projects on the startpage.

On a scond page (called blog) i want to have a page template where i can select different post categories to show as a second blog for personal works.

Its like the normal way u can do with the categorys (/category/blog/) but the problem with this way is i can only select one category and the adress is "domain.xx/category/blog".

I believe the best way is to create a special php page template where i define the categories for the wp loop... (?)

Do you understand my needs?
