Categories in admin missing

  • The categories box in the admin is getting a CSS class ‘postbox hide-if-js’ which gives it display:none

    I upgraded to 3.0 and noticed this happened. Is there a solution to this?

    Just to clarify, Categories ARE there, they are only being hidden by CSS and they also appear in the blog itself.

  • Do you have Javascript enabled? That class is active if WordPress recognizes that you have Javascript disabled in your browser.

    I do have Javascript enabled.

    I’ve been through a bunch of plugins developing this site, I just deleted all of them. Is there any chance that a plugin sis something to mess things up?

    Yeah it’s possible. Have you deactived all plugins?

    I deactivated, and deleted them.

    I edited the config file to point to another database to see if that would fix it. I did. So something in the database was causing that. I have no idea why that could even occur.

    I am having the same issue, however, it is in WordPress MU 2.9.2. Funny thing is, only the master blog is having this problem. All the child blogs have their categories displaying fine. In the post-new.php file, something is placing CSS in the page as li#category-(ID) {display:none;}. I can’t figure out where this is coming from.

    In WP 3.0.x I’ve had to register a taxonomy for the pages (which don’t natively use categories, unlike posts). Here’s the snippet to enable the categories box to show:
    register_taxonomy_for_object_type(‘category’,’page’);
