Are you looking for a way to exclude the default category from your blog? While there’s probably a plugin for this, we have created a quick code snippet that you can use to exclude default category in WordPress.
Instructions:
All you have to do is add this code to your theme’s functions.php file or in a site-specific plugin:
add_filter( 'list_terms_exclusions', 'exclude_default_cat' );
function exclude_default_cat( $exclusions ) {
if( !is_admin() )
$exclusions .= "AND t.term_id != " . get_option( 'default_category' ) . " ";
return $exclusions;
}
