[Support request] Show Category in Blog Sidebar

[Linda]

Hi Support,

I’ve tried to make sense out of several of the topics that came up once I typed in my topic title, but have not been able to figure out just what to do. Sorry!

I’d like the primary categories to show in the sidebar so a visitor could click on a category of interest and be taken to those blogs.

I checked “Category” in Customizer, thinking that would make the blog categories show on the sidebar. It didn’t, however.

What do I need to do to have them show? I’m suspecting this is more complicated than I’d originally thought.

I’d appreciate some direction on how to do this, please. I can follow the directions in an article if you can help me with which article is the one I need.

Thanks,

Linda

Hi there,

you would need to add it as Widget.

Customizer > Widgets > Sidebar –> Add New –> Categories

[Linda]

David, thank you! Widgets and I aren’t best friends yet so I never think of them as a solution. However, you were exactly right. I had it done in seconds … without any technical bits. 🙂

As always, I appreciate your super responsiveness and your easy to follow instructions.
