How can I categorized all my post
-
Hi, I’ve been searching all the possible ways to categories all my posts but as I look at my Dashboard and go to Post panel, there’s no Categories there for me to change all my uncategorized post, I try to make one category in one of my post but there’s no Add Category on the panel where the Post Settings is.
How can I remove/rename the default uncategorized to all my post.The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi!
You can add this:
/wp-adminto the name of your site and then go to the Post – Categories. Here just click on Edit button at the “Uncategorized”.
Best regards,

Good day to you. :)I would like to provide some additional information.
Categories
Note that you must be logged in under the exact same username account that registered the WordPress.COM site to do what I post below.
The Admin login link to the dashboard for every blog hosted by wordpress.COM is:
http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/
* You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with your actual blog’s name in that URL.
If the log-in information is lost you need to visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
The relevant support doc is Categories at https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/
Setting the Default Category
https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/#setting-the-default-category1. To edit or delete a category assigned to a post (whether it’s a draft or has already been published), go to Dashboard → Posts → All Posts in your dashboard, hover over the title and click the Edit link. To delete the post click the Trash link.
For editing posts in the new editor see https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/#go-back-and-edit-posts
2. To edit/delete categories in your dashboard go to Dashboard → Posts → Categories
http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit-tags.php?taxonomy=category
* You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with your actual blog’s name in that URL.
3. To edit or delete dynamic category pages in your custom menu go to Dashboard > Appearance > Menus
http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/nav-menus.php
* You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with your actual blog’s name in that URL.
4. To edit or delete Tags go to
http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit-tags.php?taxonomy=post_tag* You will have to replace “name_of_blog” with your actual blog’s name in that URL.
Re: tag spamming or spamdexing
The combined total of categories and tags assigned to any post must not exceed 15 or it will not display on WordPress.COM Categories and Tags pages and in the WordPress.COM Reader. Please you read this support doc closely http://en.support.wordpress.com/topics/#missing-posts
The classic mistakes new bloggers make are:
assigning too many categories and tags
assigning irrelevant categories and tagsDoing either or both of those results in search engines assuming you are a spamdexer or tag spammer and that means your content will be indexed and displayed in search results where the sun don’t shine.
The rule of thumb is to assign to your posts the least, not the most, combined number of only relevant categories and tags that accurately describe the individual post content. And, you never assign the same keyword or keyword phrase as both a category and a tag as all search engines consider both to be the same thing.

Thanks for quick answers, but I know already how to get to my Dashboard
it’s just that when I go to Dashboard – Posts – (under Posts is All posts, Add New and Copy Post only) there’s No Categories there, so I don’t know how I rename all my posts categories which is now into uncategorized.
Thank for helping.

I also try Setting the Default Category but when I go to
my Dashboard – Settings, again I can’t find the Writing (which is the one I need to default the category)
Under Settings panel is Sharing and Polls only.I really want to Categorise all my post.
Hope anyone can help me about it. Thanks! -

Hi there,
To change the category on a post that’s already published you need to edit the post.
Go to My Site ->Blog Posts and edit the post. In the post settings sidebar, click on Categories and Tags, and set the category there.
Or if you prefer the WP-Admin dashboard, go to this page:
https://anikakaloka.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php
Click Edit or Quick Edit on each post, and add the category you want. Then update the post.
