    Perfect! Only had to change one thing to to select only the header widget and not sidebar

    .widget_revslider .widget-content {
    margin: 0px !important;
    padding: 0px !important;
    border: 0px !important;
    }

    took me way too long to figure that out. Thank you so much!

    Got it resolved placing this in the function.php

    // This lets us filter front page categories
    function exclude_category($query) {
    if ( $query->is_home() ) {
    $query->set(‘cat’, ‘-3’);
    }
    return $query;
    }
    add_filter(‘pre_get_posts’, ‘exclude_category’);

    Regardless, thanks for taking the time for helping me out

    Ok I see, it does filter the front page exactly how I want it to look. However when clicking on a posts it shows a repeat of the 3 posts again. Not the actual post content.

    Thanks again for helping, it’s very appreciated

    Thanks for the reply

    I seem to have given one piece of information incorrect and that is that
    <?php query_posts( ‘cat=2′ ); ?>

    Is not a fix, it shows the category of post on every page.

    Also, I have read keeping your front page set to ‘latest posts’ is better for SEO. Do you have any knowledge if this is true?
    If so then I would prefer to be able to solve the problems heading this route if possible

    Your help is very much appreciated, thank you.

    I tried that and it was ok, I still like the format that came with the theme. I did fix it however, I placed this in my index.php after the first loop

    <?php query_posts($query_string . ‘&cat=2’); ?>

    Thanks for helping me out, but it’s not quite there yet. It did solve the issue where when I set up a static page no posts were showing. However now that they show it got rid of evolves theme around the post, sush as the effect when you mouse over, and the color background change it does
