Well I have narrowed it down to my get_exclude_categories_loop function.

Here is my new homepage loop code from the codex:

<?php

query_posts(array('category__not_in' => array(get_exclude_categories_loop))); ?>

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

?>

If I replace get_exclude_categories_loop with numbers like 4,6,52 then it works properly.

This leads me to believe that my get_exclude_categories_loop function is not returning a list of numbers to insert.

Here is what I do know:

1. my database has the right information so the UI is working as expected

zoo_cat_box_4 true

zoo_cat_box_5 true

zoo_cat_box_6 false

2. Using the new query_posts statement above works when on the homepage using hardcoded cat id #s

3. Leads me to believe that my get_exclude_categories_loop function is not returning numbers

or

I can’t call get_exclude_categories_loop in the query_posts like I am trying to do….

Any ideas what to change to get this working?
