Hi Guys,

Quick question...

How can I hack Serendipity so only posts from a certain category appear on the *front* page? Any code examples/pointers would be really helpful.

Cheers

Dave

Open your index.php and add this after line #9 (in s9y v. 0.4, the line after $uri = $_SERVER[...]):

$serendipity['GET']['category'] = 'yourcategory';

This will set a default category. If one selected a different category, the variable gets changed later in index.php

Hope that does the trick,
Garvin.

Perhaps this could be a configurable item sometime in the future?

"Initial view categories" or "Frontpage categories" or something like that?

That's a good idea, thanks. I've added it to our todo list!
