Add all posts to a category?

  • I want to add all my posts to a category so that people can see all my posts, how would I do this without that category being shown in the list of categories shown below the post, I also want it to automatically add all posts to it, old and new, is that possible?

  • Hello RhysPrice2014

    I probably can answer your question about adding all posts, both new and old to a category.

    First of all, assuming you have already created a new category that you want, you can now make it the default category for all your new posts by going to the dashboard and clicking Settings > Writing. You should see a dropdown menu called Default Post Category. Just select the new category that you have created, click Save Changes at the bottom and all new posts will be in that category.

    To add all existing (or old) posts to a category, you could click on Posts > All Posts in the dashboard and then check the top most box to select all posts. After that click on the Bulk Actions dropdown box and select Edit and then click on the Apply button. Check the new category that you have created under Categories and then click on the Update button.

    As for hiding the category below the posts, you could easily do this using some CSS code. If you are using the Jetpack by WordPress.com plugin, it makes things easier for you to edit the CSS for your theme. Can’t advise you on this because different themes uses different codes so I won’t know what CSS codes to suggest to you. Maybe you want to share the link to your website so we can have a look at it?

    Hope that helps.
