  I have added several new categories but they are not appearing on my page. Any suggestions?

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

  Have the new categories been assigned to a Post yet? If a category has not been assigned to a Post then it will not show up in the Category Widget. Your blog looks empty – make a test post and assign every category to it and see what happens.

  I have also noticed that you have published several static pages and one post that has a title but no content and has not had any categories assigned to it. http://frankarmenio.wordpress.com/2011/10/06/importance-of-business-planning/ You will have to edit that post and place some content into it and assign a Category or Categories to it.

  Also note Pages and Posts are different. Categories and Tags can only be assigned to Posts; they cannot be assigned to Pages.
