Thanks a lot for this free plugin. By the way, the expression “which categories should be shown on the site frontpage.” is confusing and I doubted to try the plugin. In fact, the plugin filters which categories should be shown on the site’s blog page. (What I wanted to be done) 😉 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c5b3c995d08b50f354c80245e3b03798aa01190093b59f57fd103f312402e860? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[excellent](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excellent-3101/)󠁿 [pppiotrmalek](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pppiotrmalek/) ސެޕްޓެމްބަރ 3, 2016 Super simple and super efficient, can’t ask for any more. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/72c617e1d35bd2272d333eb6e7feffc2cfd75fd1e1189b77c41c1fa38207eeb5? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Simple and effective](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-and-effective-505/)󠁿 [ammar.shahraki](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ammarshahraki/) ސެޕްޓެމްބަރ 3, 2016 in fact I am the publisher of the plugin and it’s natural that I rate it the best.
