  I am trying to add categories as per https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/ but my default is set to ‘uncategorised’. I assume I need to change that first? How can I achieve this (or is it only possible for some users?).

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hello @sandersontranslations
  Can your provide more details on what you are actually trying to do by creating categories?

  If you just want to change the default category, then follow these steps:
  1. Go to My Site(s) → Settings → Writing → Categories, or just click this link: https://wordpress.com/settings/taxonomies/category/
  2. Now click on the the 3-dots “•••” beside the category that you want to be default.
  3. Click Set as default.

  Let us know if this helps. Thanks! 🙂
