Recently Updated shows Hidden Posts

[andyhodgetts]

Hi. I noticed that the 'Recently Updated' side panel includes posts that are marked as hidden.

A simple fix could be to utilise the filtering used on the Home page and modify '_includes/update-list.html', add the filter then enumerate over it:

from:

...
{% for post in site.posts %}
...

to:

...
{% assign not_hidden = site.posts | where_exp: 'item', 'item.hidden != true' %}

{% for post in not_hidden%}
...

Jekyll has better support for the variable published, so if you want to hide a post, I suggest you use published: false instead of hidden: true.

published: false

In addition, let me remind you about drafts feature that may be useful too.

1. are there ways to hide specific posts only on the homepage & recently updated section?
   But it should show up in archive, category and tags.
2. Or just hide from homepage and show everywhere else?
   Maybe by using some conditions like showing only pinned posts in home?
   can I just remove the code in <!-- Get default posts --> section from _layouts/home.html

Edit: 2 worked
Please let me know if 1 is possible

@B-and-B-Studio No, in general, rules are applied to every aspect, so if something should be hidden, it will be hidden everywhere, unless you manually adjust the logic by overriding each layout involved in displaying posts.
