Hide category / discussion

Hi, I use the Categories and discussions view for my homepage. I have a category I'd like to hide completely, IE, no links to it on the page, but still accessible by the direct link to the category (as can be seen in the category management page in admin dashboard)
If this isn't possible, hiding discussions in the same fashion would be acceptable too.
I've done some poking around but haven't come across anything yet. Anyone got any ideas?

Actually, I believe 'unfollowing' the category would be enough for me, however when I click unfollow it still shows up on the home page even though I'm in 'show followed categories only' mode.

0 · Insightful Awesome LOL ·and what function would that be just hiding the links everywhere for the hidden categories.
So if you explain in detail or put some circles around images of what you want to happen and where maybe I can help you. When i see examples of what you want to do I can visualize better.

1 · Insightful Awesome 1LOL ·Okay thanks for the help.
I would like mine to function as the one on here. http://vanillaforums.org/categories
If you go to the top right of the categories on the right, a cog dropdown appears allowing you to hide the category.
In the 'Category Management' box on the left, as long as I am "only viewing followed categories" mode (IE, the ones that we didn't 'hide' earlier on) The category then disappears from both the list on the left and the discussions on the right, just how I want it to.
The plugin does this, but it doesn't do it for the view I use as my homepage. Regardless of whether I'm following a category or not, and definitely being in 'only show followed categories' mode, the category still appears in this view. Whereas on these forums it doesn't. - http://vanillaforums.org/categories/discussions
