How to exclude a specific product from the best sellers

[robertbits]

Hi,

I have a particular product which is a generic item whenever I am selling an item which I don't have it in the system I use this one.

The problem is that this item is showing in the best seller product slider, which is placed on my homepage.

Is there a way to exclude a particular product from being shown in best sellers?

Hello

Why don't you use the free extension for best seller?
Try mageplaza one.

Hi @theMageComp 

In fact, I have tried using mageplaza plugin and I really like it. But the problem still remains the same, the product I have that I use for generic products, still, it is showing. as you can see in the image (http://prntscr.com/pzeznx).

Apart from that the mageplaza plugin shows the best sellers from all sales. I am looking also to display the best sellers for the last month, so the items will change monthly.

I appreciate your help with any of these problems.

thanks in advance
