Hi burgerandskies,
That does sound annoying, can you give us the link to the site where you are having this issue?
Make sure that you don’t have any posts that are still using any categories you are trying to delete.

Oh sorry, I misunderstood!
In that case I wonder if your browser caching is the issue. Can you clearing your browser cache and see if that helps?
Perhaps also try using a different browser and see if that makes a difference?
I forgot to mention earlier that you won’t be able to delete the Uncategorized category, it’s a default category that needs to be available. However you can rename the Uncategorized category if you wish, but even renaming it won’t allow you to delete it.

Thanks, I have tried both clearing the cache and using another browser but nothing works. I can’t even rename them.

OK that is definitely odd.
I’m going to add the modlook tag to this thread so a member of staff here can come and help. Staff here are able to view the dashboard of your site so hopefully they can get a better idea of why you’re having this issue.

Hi thanks for your help, I’ve gone on the bulk actions and deleted it from there. So all sorted now

Glad to hear that you were able to sort out your issue, so I will go ahead and remove the
modlooktag. However, feel free to reach out if you have any questions.Thanks!
