  I’m trying to set up categories in the custom menu, using the Blissful Blog theme but no categories are showing up even when I search. Is this because the theme doesn’t support categories?? Thanks

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

  Hi there,

  Oh yes, categories are definitely supported! In this case, categories aren’t yet showing up for you because it doesn’t look like you’ve set any categories yet in your blog. You can do that by logging in to your Dashboard and then going to Posts >> Categories. Once you create categories, when you write posts you will file them in to one or two (maybe occasionally even three but rarely more) categories and add tags to them as well. You can read more about categorizing and tagging posts here:

  Let me know if you have any questions!

  Thanks so much for that – that makes sense now
