Hello, I want to exclude Home Page from Pages widget. And there is no Page id for Homepage. How to remove it?
Simple go to Pages and click on the Home page as if to edit it. Look up in the URL. The Page ID is hidden in the URL. Look for “post= ” and a number to the right. That number is your Page ID. Hope this helps.
