  You have to modify the Gallery shortcode in the Post HTML/Text Editor so that it shows like this:

  [gallery exclude="xxxx"]

  where “xxxx” is the attachment ID number of the image you want to exclude. You can only modify the shortcode in the HTML/Text tab of the post editor. (Shows as a tab next to “Visual” in the post editor)

  If you want a quick method of finding the image ID number, insert the image in the post where you want it to appear, switch to the HTML/Text Editor and you should see somewhere in the inserted image code wp-image-xxxx

  xxxx is the number you use in the exclude.
