Remove one category from the Category sidebar?

[ddye]

Thanks in advance... a client wants a "custom" front page, with a few specific products displayed along with text. I decided to create a "home" category, add text and copy those products to that section, then designate it for the Main Page in Configuration/ Layout Settings/ Main Page - Opens with Category.

I used the category number to do this, and it works fine, but I don't want that category to appear in the Categories sidebar.

Is there a way to accomplish this, or is there a better way to accomplish this?

Thanks again,

Doug Dye

If I understand the question, you could just code the links to the products and your text into define_main_page.php.

OK, I can do that... I thought it was easier to just use the "copy" function... but OK, thanks.
