  Hello @freedomautosaleskingman,

  You can find a better view of your category list to edit in your WP Admin. You can get to this dashboard by adding /wp-admin to the end of your site’s url (e.g.: freedomautosaleskingman.wordpress.com/wp-admin)

  From here, you can click on “Edit” underneath the category you want to edit to make the changes you want.

  You can find helpful instructions from here and here.

  Let me know if you need further assistance.

  Regards,
  Rose

  You can also edit category names from the regular dashboard — no need to go into WP Admin. The instructions you’ll find at https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/ will show you how.

  Thanks for helping out, Rose!
