 * The drop down for Post Category does not allow me to select a specific category.
   It’s like the drop down itself is broken.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi, Please can i ask you to further elaborate the problem.
 * How many categories do you have, do they all have articles posted to them?
    The
   category is not a drop down but a multi select, have you tried to scroll when
   hovering over the field?.

 * When I click on the “Show From Categories” nothing happens – no drop down, no
   multi-select.. nothing. I have tried setting up several categories, just to see
   if anything would show up – didn’t work. I have articles linked to the categories,
   but my only option is “Show All”

 * This is strange, there might be a conflict with another plugin thats been installed.
   Could I ask what browser you are using, would it be possible to have a look at
   the website in question, for security reasons you may email me at [pieter@baobweb.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-select-post-category/pieter@baobweb.com?output_format=md).
