    This is my blog

    https://nessascityblog.com/

    I started it last October so am fairly new to this. I am using the Lovecraft theme.

    I have searched everywhere and had no luck in finding out how to delete the categories on the RHS (well, most of them -I don’t want to delete them all).

    I put in too many, when I didn’t fully understand categories and tagging.

    Thanks for helping.

  • Hi Nessam,
    you can use this plugin to show categories, this having option for excluding category by its id, let me know if this helps ??

    I will try that, thank you!

    I have actually never downloaded a widget before and don’t have a clue -any tips?

    Download the plugin from backend, Plugins->Add new, search for “Pro categories Widget” install it and activate, then you need to go to Appearance->Widgets, here you can see a widget called “Pro Categories Widget”(Search for it using ctrl+f), then you just need to drag & drop the widget into your sidebar and make changes in settings as per needed and you will be done, let me know if you still have any issues ??

    When I go to Plugins it doesn’t give me an ‘add new’ option. When I try searching it offers me nothing.

    I don’t know if it’s me being stupid, or if WordPress should really be a lot more user-friendly than this for such a simple customisation. Grr.

    You’re posting in the wrong place and need to ask in the correct forum.

    It’s a common misunderstanding. ??

    Thank you!

    So it was me being stupid after all. My apologies for wasting your time, and that of Swayam.

    I’ll have a look at those links.
