  I’m using the Collective theme. When I set a page to “Portfolio,” the uncategorized category appears with the other categories that appear on the tabs. (See https://joehirsch.me/blog-2/ for an example.)

  How do I remove the uncategorized tab from the list of tabs?

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

  I’m not seeing uncategorized on the page you reference unless you are talking about in the categories menu above the content. That menu will show all of your categories. To keep uncategorized from showing up there, go to this page in your WP Admin dashboard and set a default category other than uncategorized.

  Next, go to to the Categories page in the WP Admin dashboard and delete the Uncategorized category.
