Excluding one category in Wordpress

I just started out using wordpress as a CMS. On the site I have 2 pages I want different posts to show on. So far I understand this small code to post only one particular category one a page (when put infront of the loop:

<?php query_posts('cat=8&showposts=5');?>

But what do I write when I need to exclude this category on my blog-page?

Solution

  • Just add a minus to it. Example:

    query_posts('cat=-3');
