So in other words, it’s not easy and will take hours ??

I’m not a happy wp user right now. I have other things to do today and events to cover that need to be posted on this very same “hacked” website tonight.

Followup, a reader just told me : “big red lettering it said that avg virus detected a virus with lynnhappens in the message,”

Is there any way just to get new code from google? Has anyone tried un-installing and re-installing the plugin?

Thanks! It worked, but I got different-looking icons as a result that aren’t as nice. Did google just change them?

Just read it..might be a bit over my head, I’m afraid. I do this through FTP? I can’t use my control panel?

I don’t know what that means, but I’ll try it. ??

Thanks, and thanks for your help. I can’t believe I hadn’t noticed that category invisibility plugin the first few times I looked at them. It was something I installed two years ago, at least.

I re-classified the few posts that were “uncategoried” and it went away from the menu. It’s a much simpler solution than using a plugin!

So, now I stand totally corrected. I did have a plugin that enabled me to make the “Uncategorized” category invisible. Now it appears, and I have to find another way to remove it, as it won’t let me delete “Uncategorized.” But, everything else works now and I’m grateful for your help..

But if I switch from one theme back to the next, will I not lose the changes I made to colors and other css items when I switch back? I’m too novice to be able to get that sorted through again any time soon.

I deactivated one. I actually deleted it as I was planing to anyway. The others are so basic and have nothing to do with categories..can try.. and report back..

I’ve heard reports of other people with similar problems after the upgrade. It seems I’m not the only one and a 3.1.something else is in order shortly.

Is there some code I can fix.. that I can cut and paste into my editor?

Failed.. wish your suggestions had worked. Now, I’m kind of at a loss, since the menu buttons can’t find the categoried posts but all the categories and post tags are still in place.

Thanks. Will try your first suggestion, first. I can’t reinstall the theme, I’d lose too many customizations. I checked for category related plugins and found none, though I use some on my other sites. Will try that also..

I switched plugins after I couldn’t get it to work. I like the look of this one better, but the old one had more detail. I wonder if somewhere there’s a best of both worlds.

It was working fine for me until tonight. Now, all the fields are there, just no info to fill them. I can’t seem to fix it. I’m wondering if their feed is just down? I didn’t do anything that could have effected it. And, I’m counting down the minutes until I remove it or find a new one..

Thanks everyone! Esmi, your code did the trick! Now, to work on the sidebars..
