How to delete wordpress categories?
-
I can not figure out how to delete and edit them, I have tried everything and googled it, looked at other posts about it but it I do not find where to edit them at all.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Click on “My Site” scroll down on the left to “Settings” and then click on “Writing” top middle.

That’s a good question. Can’t seem to find out how on mobile. I will check in my laptop and see if I can figure it out. If so I’ll post a reply.

Note that you must be logged in under the exact same username account that registered the 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=lostpassword1. 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.
