    Thanks Brad - I haven't tried it yet but I think you've found the issue

    I got the page working using a workaround. I selected the blog template file and added

    query_args: cat=1 into the custom fields

    this did the trick in the short term - Many thanks again for your help with this one

    Still no joy 🙁 I turned them all off but the problem persisted.

    I must've messed with something here but can't think what.

    Do you think an alternative might be just to set up a new page template to only feed the one category? Seems a bit drastic but...

    The option there is set to 'news' also. It doesn't have any effect on the filter regardless of what I set it to unfortunately

    Well spotted and thanks again for your persistence... however it still hasn't done it. All categories still displaying.

    Could I have altered something else that has had a knock on effect? There's every possibility I've edited something without realising...

    Many thanks

    haha! Ok I now understand...

    I've added your code but am having now luck again I'm afraid - All categories are still displaying http://arete.dominicpalmer.co.uk/latest-news/

    Just to clarify. The category I want to exclusively display is '2' so I have adapted the code here

    Am I missing something??

    Many thanks again

    Please ignore this - I may have solved my own problem. I setup a new template file and activated it in WordPress. Then copied the code in. Somehow that worked!

    Thanks for the swift response Brad. I'm afraid it didn't work however. I placed the code into the functions.php file and changed the category from '-007' to '-002' (as my blog category that I want to keep is has the ID of 2) but the page is still displaying all of them.

    Any other thoughts at all would be much appreciated

    Many thanks
