  • Add topic to favorites

  I would like to see my post topics in a side bar, maybe in that “Cloud effect” where words appear bigger and smaller to click on. I tried dragging the widget over… it says ‘uncategorized.’ Stuck!
  Thanks so much!

  Hi Lynn,

  It looks like you need to add Categories to your posts. This way, the Category Cloud will be able to show the various categories in which you have published your posts. Currently, all of your posts are listed as “Uncategorized.”

  To add Categories to your blog, please follow the instructions available here:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/

  You will then need to edit each of your posts to select the Category in which you would like to put them.
