  Hello Everyone,

  I am developing a theme and everything has gone smoothly until now. To start, I have three 3 posts in 3 different categories; using WP’s example,

  <?php
  wp_list_categories(‘orderby=name&show_count=1&exclude=10’); ?>

  it returns No categories in my blog??

  I am having a similar problem with Blogroll and Arhives. The difference is they actually don’t return anything?

  Any advise would be helpful?

  you’d better proceed directly to the http://wordpress.org/support

  PS:
  does wp_list_categories(); return anything at all w/o params?

  wp_list_categories() is used by the “Default” (Kubrick) theme. if everything is fine with your fresh WP install they are to be listed on a sidebar;

  if not there’re several results on query “wp_list_categories() ‘no categories'” returned on .org forums.

  this is a .com users forums we have no idea about WP guts.

  also, versions (at least of) WP and plugins installed always need to be mentioned over there (may be that’s why your post hasn’t been replied).
