I need to exclude subcategory posts from archive pages — exactly what you covered in this article.

Unfortunately my PHP "ability" is limited to verbatim copy-and-paste, and the archive.php templates of the two themes I'm looking to do this too have lots of conditionals in them so I can't just copy/paste the code you provided.

For example you said to find this piece of code and add some stuff.

<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

But in my archive template, it's broken up by a bunch of considationals as I've pasted below, so I don't know how/where to add the elements of code you'd provided. Tried, failed. If you can help me out, your assistance will be appreciated in the form of a donation to fund your awesomeness and plugin dev work. : )

        <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

       <?php $post = $posts[0]; // Hack. Set $post so that the_date() works. ?>
       <?php /* If this is a category archive */ if (is_category()) { ?>
        <h2 class="pagetitle"><?php single_cat_title(); ?></h2>
       <?php /* If this is a tag archive */ } elseif( is_tag() ) { ?>
        <h2 class="pagetitle">Posts Tagged &#8216;<?php single_tag_title(); ?>&#8217;</h2>
       <?php /* If this is a daily archive */ } elseif (is_day()) { ?>
        <h2 class="pagetitle">Archive for <?php the_time('F jS, Y'); ?></h2>
       <?php /* If this is a monthly archive */ } elseif (is_month()) { ?>
        <h2 class="pagetitle">Archive for <?php the_time('F, Y'); ?></h2>
       <?php /* If this is a yearly archive */ } elseif (is_year()) { ?>
        <h2 class="pagetitle">Archive for <?php the_time('Y'); ?></h2>
      <?php /* If this is an author archive */ } elseif (is_author()) { ?>
        <h2 class="pagetitle">Author Archive</h2>
       <?php /* If this is a paged archive */ } elseif (isset($_GET['paged']) && !empty($_GET['paged'])) { ?>
        <h2 class="pagetitle">Blog Archives</h2>
       <?php } ?>

        <div class="navigation">
            <div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Older Entries') ?></div>
            <div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Newer Entries &raquo;') ?></div>
        </div>

        <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
        <div <?php post_class() ?>>
                <h3 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h3>

                <div class="entry">
                    <?php the_content() ?>
                </div>

               
            </div>

        <?php endwhile; ?>

        <div class="navigation">
            <div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Older Entries') ?></div>
            <div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Newer Entries &raquo;') ?></div>
        </div>
    <?php else :

        if ( is_category() ) { // If this is a category archive
            printf("<h2 class='center'>Sorry, but there aren't any posts in the %s category yet.</h2>", single_cat_title('',false));
        } else if ( is_date() ) { // If this is a date archive
            echo("<h2>Sorry, but there aren't any posts with this date.</h2>");
        } else if ( is_author() ) { // If this is a category archive
            $userdata = get_userdatabylogin(get_query_var('author_name'));
            printf("<h2 class='center'>Sorry, but there aren't any posts by %s yet.</h2>", $userdata->display_name);
        } else {
            echo("<h2 class='center'>No posts found.</h2>");
        }
        get_search_form();

    endif;
?>
