  I’m trying to add a category to my blogroll called “Stores I like” and under that category I’d like to add a link to WalMart. I’ve read the info under SUPPORT but am obviously not doing something right because my category and link are not showing up on the main page. Can someone help me figure out what it is that I’m neglecting to do or not doing right?? I appreciate any help you all can offer!!!

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

  From the Dashboard, go to Link Categories. That page lets you create new categories of links. The category has to be created before the link is created.

  It’s important to know that widgets cannot display null data. Unless and until you publish a post with a Category assigned to it the Categories Widget has no data to display.
