If you use wordpress default widget in your theme, you will notice that you don't have an option to exclude the category. In such case you can use some plugin's and get your work done, but i prefer to use less plugins and do more of coding things. So in such case I write the below code in functions.php file located in my selected theme folder. <?php function exclude_widget_categories($args){ $exclude = "1,17"; // The IDs of the excluding categories $args["exclude"] = $exclude; return $args; } add_filter("widget_categories_args","exclude_widget_categories"); ?>

Every time I worked on PHP, I always used include, then later on I wanted to know the difference between include, include_once, require, and require_once. After googling I came to know the difference. include: Includes and evaluates the specified file, throwing a warning if the file can’t be found. include_once: Same as include, but if the file has already been included it will not be included again. require: Includes and evaluates the specified file (same as include), but instead of a warning, throws a fatal error if the file can’t be found. require_once: Same as require, but if the file has already been included it will not be included again.
