Question How to exclude a specific category posts from Recent Discussion?

i want to exclude a specific category new topics and replies from Recent Discussion tab.. is there anyway to do that? any help would be really appreciated.
thanx

the only way to do that is change the
/components/com_kunena/template/default_ex/latestx.php

Thanx etusha for reply..

can you please specify the code which i need to edit. i would be really thankful. i just want to remove 1 category posts.

edit: i found this code for include categories.

is there any code to simply exclude 1 category instead adding all category numbers. and then i have to edit everytime to include a new category.

thanx

There is configuration setting for this:

Recent Post Settings > Show Category

Unfortunately you need to do in another way: list every catid you want to show.

Ok..
Thanx for the help..

I'm using the default_x template on K1.5.8, J1.5.15, trying to show only certain post categories and the Show Category settings are ignored on the Recent Discussions tab. I've set my cats I want to display like this: 11, 73, 1, 25, 46, 90, but all posts still display. And the other settings like Show Hits, author and so on also don't change either when I change the setting. I've cleared the cache, changed templates but that doesn't seem to get the Recent Post Settings to kick in.
