Tech WP Next/Previous Posts Exclude Category(s) - GoFuckYourself.com

A little WP help would be appreciated with $excluded_terms in the next/previous posts link.

I've looked at the Codex for next post links help and have been unable to make it work.

I think I have the right file ( /wp-includes/link-template.php ) but at this stage I'm questioning everything...including my sanity lol.

First off, don't change WordPress core files. It will just get overwritten anyway next update.

Instead, make the changes to your child theme's files so they won't be lost.

Here's an example to show next post that's not in category ID 13.

Code:

<?php next_post_link( '%link', 'Next post', FALSE, '13' ); ?>
