please help, I have difficulties with top post widget. I want to remove a post from displaying in the top post section, I already set the visibility >Hide>Tag>(keyword of the post). But still, it wont disappear. Did I set it wrong? Or is there any CSS customization to do this?
Thanks in advance.

Are you trying to hide Ulasan Lima Film Drama Komedi Terbaik ?
If you are hoping to hide by Tag, did you make sure the tag is one of the following tages set on this post: and, bucket, drama, feature, Film, intouchables, komedi, list, marley, me, show, terbaik, terminal, the, truman
As this post is currently Uncategorized, create a category, assign this post to the newly created category and then on the widget, hide top posts if category is newly created category.
Hiding should ideally work with Tags as well but I am unsure which tag are you using to hide this post.

On your top posts and pages widget, I’m not seeing any visibility setting. You can read more on setting widget visibility here.
You cannot remove individual posts from the top posts and pages widget. You can only select which page or page types the widget will appear on.
Which posts and/or pages show in the top posts and pages widget are calculated from 24-48 hours of your stats.

Whoops, never mind, staff-happychia has you covered. I should probably go to bed and leave you in his very capable hands. :)

yeah, let’s say I want to remove Ulasan Lima Film Drama Komedi Terbaik. I set like this http://snag.gy/9OXwD.jpg but it doesnt change anything.
@Sacredpath so what the ‘Hide’ and ‘if’ function are for then sir? I thought I can hide a post with a certain tag of the post.

You have Ulasan Lima… assigned to a number of tags. You would have to exclude each and every one of those tags. What you will have to do is to assign only a single tag to that post, perhaps something like “truman” and then when you exclude “truman” from the top posts and pages widget, it will disappear.
-
I’ve done that sir. But it still insisted to stay on there. Was it supposed to take effect in 24-48 hours? If that’s the case, I failed to do so in my other blog. Please help, I almost take my own life because of this frustrating problem. :D

Hi,
my blogpost is https://oasiswebsite.wordpress.com/
I want to put static page with Sticky posts Slider and table both as a home page. How can I do that.
Slider possible only with recent post page. While static page doesnt contain slider.
Table will contain ‘photo images with text below it which should link to other pages of major project. -
@imanuelkristianto you seem to have configured the widget correctly. So let’s wait at least 2 hours and see if the top post still appears on the widget.
If that’s the case, I failed to do so in my other blog.
I did not quite understand this. Could you please elaborate a bit?

Too bad, Ulasan Lima Film Drama Komedi Terbaik is still showing in the top post widget. How do I solve this? Or this feature is just malfunction that wordpress has?
-
Could you assign a category to this post and see if it makes any difference?
If not, try to hide by category and see if it makes any difference.
If none of these options works, I will tag this topic for staff’s assistance so they can take a look.

I think there might be a misunderstanding with how the widget visibility settings work. Let me try to help explain.
Let’s look at the screenshot example you posted earlier. Thank you for including a screenshot—it’s very helpful to see what you are looking at!
http://snag.gy/9OXwD.jpgIn that screenshot, you have selected to “Hide” the Top Posts & Pages widget if the post “Tag” is “truman”
That means that the entire Top Posts & Pages widget should be hidden when the tag is truman, such as on this page:
http://imanuelkristianto.wordpress.com/2014/06/06/ulasan-lima-film-drama-komedi-terbaik/ (see how the Top Posts & Pages widget is hidden in in the widget area there?)Inside the Top Posts & Pages widget itself (shown here: https://cloudup.com/cpuDhx2HbZ0 ) it is not possible to hide one of the posts in that list.
Hopefully this helps explain how the widget visibility settings work, but if you still need help understanding them, please let me know.

How did I forget that widget visibility is applicable to the widget, not to what is shown on the widget! (facepalm).
Thank you @designsimply.

OMG, finally the problem is crystal clear now. I saw it in a wrong way. However, can that still be achieved with a CSS customization? *still insist* :D
Thank you in advance.

.widget_top-posts ul li:nth-child(1) { display:none; }This style hides the first child of top posts & pages list, which at this point in time is, Ulasan Lima Film Drama Komedi Terbaik.

Tricky solution! :) Nice.
It will only work as long as that post is the first one listed though.
Here’s an even trickier solution… :)
.widget_top-posts a[href="http://imanuelkristianto.wordpress.com/2014/06/06/ulasan-lima-film-drama-komedi-terbaik/"] { display: none; }It uses an attribute selector, which is kind of a fun one.
imanuelkristianto, in order to make a customization like that, you would indeed need to purchase the Custom Design upgrade or Premium Plan in order to get access to the WordPress.com CSS editor.
