  Here are illustrated instructions for creating categories and assigning them to posts, not to pages, only to posts. We can also create sub-categories assigned to categories in a hierarchical structure.

  It’s important to know that we can create as many categories and tags as we wish, but until we actually publish a post with a category and/or tag assigned to that post there will be nothing to display.

  It’s also important to know that Categories and Tags are treated in the same way by search engines and if we find our posts are missing from the WordPress.com Tags Page then there are reasons for that which we must address.

  Are you trying to get the categories to appear in a specific order, as opposed to alphabetically? If that’s what it is, I don’t know if that’s possible right now (at least not without an upgrade or something).

  You can use a category cloud, so the ones you use the most will appear bigger.

  If that’s not what you’re trying to do, ignore this.
