I should edit the dynamic_sidebar() function on wordpress (hiding some categories, editing the template).
Is it possible? I read “you need to edit the core”, but I don’t have understand where is this “core” 🙂
Never edit the core. The reason is that if you change the default behaviour, themes you install might not work and updates to the wordpress engine will break your changes.
To change the way your wordpress behaves, create a child theme. Then add a
functions.phpfile and in it create a widget that has your desired behaviour.You can also register a new type of sidebar and a page templates that shows only that type of sidebar.
