  How do I get all categories in a drop down menu? I have trying to do this for like 4 hours! I have pages that are set as categories but they don’t display in the drop down category widget. I am going to freak out! lol

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

  You have only three posts on your site and none of them have been assigned to a category. The category widget cannot display what isn’t there. Assign categories to your posts and they will appear in the widget.

  I also don’t see any category pages in the menu, only Home and About, and the last post was published more than a year ago, so if you’re speaking of a different blog than the one linked above, please provide the URL of THAT blog so we can help you with it.

  I already figured it out. It was not showing up because there were no posts in that category yet. The URL is http://www.cantlivewith.com. Check it out!!
