Omitting Categories from Home page and blog page

Hi, I realise there is a reply to this, but even now I am registered and logged in, I cannot see the solution as it is locked.
I am trying to omit specific categories and ONLY show my ‘News’ & ‘Offers and Competitions’ categories (ID’s 3 & 4) on the home page and main blog page – however, ALL posts from ALL categories are showing on both pages, no matter what I do!I have implemented this as follows:
1. On the Main blog page ‘News & Events’ – I have entered the following shortcode [post_list categories=”category-3,category-4″ thumbs=”small” post_content=”content” numberposts=”10″ orderby=”post_date” order=”DESC” offset=”0″ link=”true” link_text=”Read More” link_target=”_self”] – however, ALL my categories are still appearing on this page.
2. I have set up the home page with a custom layout – and set the lower section as ‘From an external page’ then set this page to ‘News & Events’ – again ALL posts from ALL categories are appearing.
3. I have checked my settings in both Theme settings and global settings to ensure that the Home page is set to display ‘Custom Layout from Home Page, and Excluded the categories I wish to omit from the Theme Options Content section.
Can you tell if I am missing something or is there a fault within the system?
I would appreciate your quick response on this as I am implementing this as an upgrade from an earlier version of Alyeska (which worked perfectly) for my client and their site is currently down for maintenance until we can resolve this issue.
Thank you,
Anne Nelson
