My wordpress website shows “no categories” written at the top of page

  • Hello @durremirza
    It code may be in archive.php and if ypu have not knowledge of code just use css given in below


    <span aria-label="CSS selector" class="selector" style="box-sizing: border-box; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; color: var(--text-disabled);"><span class="simple-selector selector-matches" style="box-sizing: border-box; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; color: var(--text-primary);">ul.cat_menu</span></span><span class="sidebar-pane-open-brace" style="box-sizing: border-box; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; color: var(--text-primary);">?{</span>
    1. <input class="enabled-button" type="checkbox" aria-label="display none !important" style="min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; font-size: 10px; background-color: var(--sys-color-cdt-base-container); color: inherit; visibility: hidden; float: left; margin-right: 0px; vertical-align: top; position: relative; z-index: 1; width: 18px; left: -40px; top: 1px; height: 13px;"></input><span class="styles-clipboard-only" style="box-sizing: border-box; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; display: inline-block; width: 0px; opacity: 0; pointer-events: none; white-space: pre;">    </span><span aria-label="CSS property name: display" class="webkit-css-property" style="box-sizing: border-box; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; color: var(--webkit-css-property-color,var(--sys-color-token-property-special)); margin-left: -38px;">display</span><span class="styles-name-value-separator" style="box-sizing: border-box; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; display: inline-block; width: 14px; text-decoration: inherit; white-space: pre;">: </span><span aria-label="CSS property value: none !important" class="value" style="box-sizing: border-box; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px;">none !important;</span>
    <span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: var(--text-primary); font-family: consolas, "lucida console", "courier new", monospace; font-size: 12px; white-space: nowrap;">}</span>

    That can only be coming from your theme. But as you’re using a custom theme, we’re unable to inspect the theme’s code and help you address the root cause of the issue.

    As rohitmukati mentioned, you can use CSS to hide it. Put the following CSS code in APPEARANCE => CUSTOMIZE => ADDITIONAL CSS:

    li.cat-item-none {
    display: none;
}

    I’m not 100% sure if hiding it this way will have any unintended consequences or not… so be sure to test your site after adding the code.

    Good luck!
