  Hi, I have some uncategorized posts which I would like to categorize. If I create the category, how do I move the existing posts into it? Thanks, Ch.S.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  On the dashboard Posts page, use the Quick Edit feature to just add the category you want and remove Uncategorized. You have to do it in that order because each post MUST have at least one category.

  Hi, this sounds logical– once I have other categories, I don’t need the category called “uncategorized” ;-) BUT at Posts / Quick Edit, “Uncategorized” has no checkbox next to it, and I don’t see a way to delete it. What am I missing? Thanks! Ch.S.
