Default Setting up categories on the blog
Hi everyone,

Can anyone please tell me how to set up categories on my Wordpress Direct blog? I have created the categories with no problem but I cannot get them transferred to my blog. On the right hand side of the page I just have all of the tags listed. I have learned that one of the mistakes new bloggers like me
make is that we do not organize our categories properly, so I know it is important. A step by step explanation is very much appreciated. Thank you very much.

Post Blog Categories
The categories are probably there on your blog (you can log into yoursite.com/wp-admin to double check), but they won't show up in your sidebar until there is a post in that category.

It frazzled me a bit, too, till I figured that out . . .
