  I can’t seem to cancel categories. I went into Posts and there is no option to delete/edit. Also, how do I pre-view my blog after changes. I have looked all over and see nothing. I am currently using the free option to see if I like it better than Blogger. Thank You.

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

  I finally found the resolution to my problem. I wanted to add this in case someone else needed help/support and, like me, couldn’t get any help on the forum.
  When accessing the free version of the blog, it opens up to a page that I thought was the dashboard but was not. There are menu items but not all of the edit options are listed. (Maybe an old version?)

  You must access your dashboard here –
  https://yourblogname.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  Select “Posts” and then you will see “Categories”.

  You will notice you have more options (including Plug-In’s, which I had also been looking for). You can now make your changes.

  Take Care!
