User15892 comments:

Hello Arnav Joy,

Please find enclose the php file of the timeline template page.
I would like to add a filter to show the posts of the following category only :
Name = Evasions
tag_ID = 148

Actually, all the posts are shown.

Many thanks.

find this line

$query = new WP_Query( array( 'year' => $arcresult->year , 'posts_per_page' => -1 ) );

and replace with


$query = new WP_Query( array( 'cat' => 148 , 'year' => $arcresult->year , 'posts_per_page' => -1 ) );
