  I need to know if there is a way to filter the Karuna themes built in “Recent Posts” section. I need posts of a certain category to not be included, but can’t find a way to customise.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  If you use a static front page for the theme, you can use the Blog Posts block on that page to only display posts from the categories you want.

  Or if you upgrade to the Pro plan you’d be able to add a custom PHP filter to your theme’s source code to exclude a category, but we’re not able to help with the code to do that. It might also be possible using a plugin, but I don’t know of anything specific that does that.

  But the default Posts page on a site will always list all published posts on a site, and there’s no built-in setting in WordPress to exclude specific posts from that posts feed.
