How do I delete a category?
-
I am trying to find how I can delete a category, I can see how to set a default category but not how to delete one already there, any help would be great, thank you.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi collectivelymobile, to delete a Category, simply go to Posts –> Category to view all categories. If you move your mouse over a category a set of options will appear, allowing you to edit, quick-edit, or delete that category.
Clicking on Delete will delete that category.
But remember; when a category is deleted, all posts that were only in that category will be assigned to the default category. If a post was also in other categories it will remain untouched.
I hope that helps!

Hi, thank you, in Admin I don’t see ‘Posts’ I see ‘Blog Posts’ but when I click that I have no options re Categories. Am I looking at the wrong thing?

Hey there collectivemobile!
If you go to http://collectivelymobile.wordpress.com/wp-admin/ you will see a section called “Posts”, with a “pin” icon right next to it.
Let me know how it goes! :)
