  I added the location map widget and a new category a few weeks ago but they don’t seem to be showing on my blog. I’ve cleared the cache and fiddled around with the settings but nothing seems to make a difference. Is there a quick-fix or is it a hosting problem?

  Thanks!

  What is “location map widget”? Are your referring to the Google map that I see here? http://lauralovesit.wordpress.com/2012/07/14/londons-best-afternoon-teas-in-my-opinion/

  I added the location map widget and a new category a few weeks ago but they don’t seem to be showing on my blog.

  Pages bloggers create are static and do not update. We cannot post directly to them at all. Categories cane be assigned to posts only, not to pages. When we publish a post that has a category assigned to it the sofware automatically places that post on the dynamic automatically updating category pages. We create a custom menu and then we add the dynamic Categories pages to it.

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#adding-category-pages-to-your-menu

  There is no data to be displayed under any Category until there is a published post with that category assigned to it.

  @vastlycurious
  I will answer this question for you but in the future when you cannot locate an on-topic thread to post into you will create you own threads https://en.forums.wordpress.com/?new=1 rather than posting off-topic into existing threads.

  You can change you Blog Title and/or the optional Tagline at any time on this page > Settings > General

  I think it’s called the geolocation tag? It is supposed to show automatically next to each post but it doesn’t.

  I get so lost in the dashboard that now I can’t find it again to tell you exactly what it’s called!

  Thanks for your help.
