Subject: Excluding woocommerce cats by slug instead of id.
X-Git-Tag: v1.0.23^2~4
X-Git-Url: http://cvs2.gaslightmedia.com/gitweb/index.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6fc8c7f5f994b00091e3cb6339494c80b04e599b;p=WP-Themes%2Fcapstone.git

Excluding woocommerce cats by slug instead of id.

Excluding the categories on the frontpage and sidebar by ID resulted
in these not being excluded on local and development copies. Using
the slug fixes this as they're all referred to as 'Whitepages'.
