  I have tried to read through other posts to get resolution but nothing is working. The dashboard is showing that I have 19 categories but when i click on the category tab none of them show up. I have no idea what happened but I need this resolved ASAP. Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

  The site is http://www.bartabnews.com

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

  Nice that things are fixed – however:

  G’day,
  Please understand that you can create many categories but widgets cannot display null data. So until you publish a post in any category and assign it to a category and place the categories widget in your sidebar there is nothing for the categories widget to display.

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/categories-widget/

  Also note that you have created a “404” page not found on your front page by deleting the “Hello World” post. This will disappear after you publish a post.

  Create a Custom 404 Page
