Excluding Posts | Code Samples | Docs

The code below will exclude posts that have been included in a previous query on the page.

<?php

// Standard WP Query

$args = array(

'category_name' => 'wordpress',

'posts_per_page' => 5

);

$query = new WP_Query($args);

while ( $query->have_posts() ) : $query->the_post();

$do_not_duplicate[] = $post->ID; // Store post ID in array

// Other loop actions could go here

endwhile; wp_reset_query();

// Ajax Load More

$post__not_in = ($do_not_duplicate) ? implode(',', $do_not_duplicate) : '';

echo do_shortcode('[ajax_load_more post__not_in="'. $post__not_in .'"]');

The code below will exclude the current post from Ajax Load More results.

<?php

$current_id = get_the_ID(); // Current post ID

echo do_shortcode('[ajax_load_more post__not_in="'. $current_id .'"]');
