How Do I Hide Categories on WordPress Blog?

Hiding categories on a WordPress blog can be done in a few different ways. The most popular way to hide categories is to simply add _cat as a category suffix to any posts that you would like to hide the category from.

For example, if you wanted to hide the category “Food” from a post, you would add the _cat suffix and make the post title “No categorical food posts.”.

Another way to hide categories is to use the wp_get_categories function. This function will return an array of all of the categories that have been set up on your blog.

To hide a category, you would use the wp_get_categories function and pass in the name of the category that you want to hide as an argument. For example, if you wanted to hide the category “Food” from a post, you would use the wp_get_categories function and pass in “Food.

The final way to hide categories is to use the WP_HIDDEN_CATEGORIES WordPress setting. This setting will allow you to specify which categories should be hidden from view when someone browses your blog using the category filter in WordPress’s WordPress admin panel. To use this setting, first you’ll need to create a hidden category by clicking on the Add New Category button in your blog’s admin panel and entering the name of the category that you want to create a hidden category for. Next, you’ll need to set upWP_HIDDEN_CATEGORIES in your WordPress settings so that WordPress will automatically add _cat as a suffix to all posts that are hidden from view using the category filter.

To do this, open your WordPress settings and under Blogging > General > WP_HIDDEN_CATEGORIES, enter “true” into the Enable Hidden Categories field and click save changes. Finally, make sure that all of your posts that you want to be hidden from view using the category filter have titles that include the _cat suffix.
