title: excluding custom taxonomy from query on wordpress?
body: <p>I have the following code that lists all the posts from the custom post type "download".
  I would like to exclude 2 specific categories under a custom taxonomy...
  (the taxonomy is called "download_category" and the categories i want to hide are called "free-beats" and "sold")</p>
  
  <p>here is the code i have</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php $temp = $wp_query; $wp_query= null; $wp_query = new WP_Query(); $wp_query-&gt;query('post_type=download&amp;showposts=-1'); ?&gt;
  &lt;?php while ($wp_query-&gt;have_posts()) : $wp_query-&gt;the_post(); ?&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried adding &amp;download_category=-4 (4 is the id of the free-beats category) and it still didn't work.....
  any help would be much appreciated</p>
