  HI ,

  You can go to My Site -> Blog posts ->
  click ‘Edit’ on the post that you would like to add/change a category -> edit the category using the ‘Categories & Tags’ from the menu on the left -> publish your post again.

  You can get more information here

  I’m having an issue with my blog, when I go to edit my post I don’t see anything on the left. I’m looking for the “categories and tags”…… Nothing.

  Hi,

  Sorry to hear that you are unable to find the categories link.
  Can you please try this ? Click edit on your blog post -> then do a word search on the page for “catergories” .

  Also can you give me a screen shot of the page after you click “Edit” .

  Hi Krystina and Vii,
  I can go to a Post and click in the bottom right corner where there is box that says Customize or Edit. Then the menu appears on the left side with Categories as one of the options. I have also created Pages. I link them to the Posts. I don’t see a way to assign a Category to a Page.

  Hope you could find the “categories” link when you click “edit” the posts.
