I need to remove some specific (or show some of them specifically) taxonomies, not all of them as the previous code does. Something like this:

<br /> <?php wp_list_categories(array('title_li' => '', 'taxonomy' => 'project_tags', 'project_tags' => array('audiovisual','web'), 'walker' => new Project_Walker())); ?><br />

In the example, obviously, the taxonomies that I hope to show up, was 'audiovisual' and 'web'.
There's no problem if anyone came up with a different solution, for example, excluding all taxonomies, except for the 'audiovisual' and 'web'.

Thank you!

I want to exclude certain categories from appearing in the category cloud.
There's an option for this, but it seems to be broken - the categories I list to be excluded are still included. (Blurb, Uncategorized)
Is this widget broken?
Is category ID simply the name of the category (eg Uncategorized) or is it something else?

Thanks,
David

Sorry for the late reply. I found this in my spam.

I have since used the ID numbers and it works. For some reason, I thought the ID name would do the trick. Thanks for your help.

Is this a known bug?

Any advice would be great. Thanks!

I thank you for all your patience.

I have a feeling you may have copied my above gallery shortcode and pasted it in your Post Editor's Text tab, along with the shortcode that was already there. That's why you ended up with two galleries. Don't copy/paste. You have to modify the existing shortcode to exclude the single image.

If you want all your Galleries to appear as mosaics, it may just be easier to set it as the default display. Here's what the Gallery support doc says

To switch to tiled layouts from the default, head over to Settings → Media in your blog’s dashboard, scroll down to “Image Gallery Carousel,” and select the box next to “Display all your gallery pictures in a cool mosaic.” Note that choosing this option makes this layout the default for all your blog’s galleries, including those you’ve previously inserted.

You'll still have to use excludes if you want a separate image to appear in your post that contains a Gallery, but following the instructions I gave you above, you should be able to find it.

Seem to have given you the wrong address in the above note...

Thanks again I love WordPress and appreciate all the help

In your post I assume it is the sunset photo you want to keep out of the Gallery, so in the Post Editor for that post, switch to the Text tab, look for the Gallery shortcode (pretty much at the top where you inserted the Gallery) and modify the Gallery shortcode like this:
[gallery type="rectangle" exclude="320"]

The 320 is the image ID number, which shows in the code for the inserted photo as "attachment wp-att-320".

Would you like to give us the link to the post with the Gallery to make sure we are talking apples?

Thank you for prompt reply. It is now another day and I am feeling wide awake!!!! So I am now going to do another post and see if I can work it out. Will report back as to how I get on....

If you mean a Slideshow like this http://en.support.wordpress.com/slideshows/ then you can delete the photo from the post where the Slideshow appears, then upload the photo to a different post that doesn't have a slideshow or gallery. After uploading the photo close the post where you uploaded the photo and go back and insert it in the post where you deleted it from.

Hopefully clearer than mud. :)

xxxx is the number you use in the exclude.
