    Please I have been trying for weeks to make my posts appear in my categories and it still does not. I went through all the process provided by the WordPress support but it still doesn’t. When I click on the categories in my primary menu it just shows ‘PAGE NOT FOUND’ ‘404 ERROR’. please help, this situation has delayed me so much.

    The site I need help with is http://www.throneassets.com.dream.website. It is not hosted by WordPress.com, but it is connected with Jetpack.

    Hi there,

    Your site is not hosted on WordPress.com, but using the open source WordPress.org software at another hosting provider. We’re only able to help with sites hosted on our servers at WordPress.com.

    Please ask the WordPress.org community for advice instead. They provide support for the version of WordPress you’re using:

    That said, to create a category page, first make sure you have at least one page published in that category.

    Next edit your menu, add a new menu item, and then add a Category, not a Page, directly to the menu. Only categories that already contain posts will be available to select there. If you don’t see the category you want to add, make sure you first publish a post in that category, then try adding it again.

    You can see our support page for this process here – in this case it should work exactly the same on your self-hosted site:
