Title: Category failure Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # Category failure * [sgelber](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sgelber/) * (@sgelber) * [18 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/category-failure/) * I am using this theme: Clean Cut 1.0 by Armi Anan Having revised it to match my website colors (I know basic programming). The categories say they are added yet do not show. I tried to see if they were not visible yet could not find that area. Also, I changed my password yet am unable to login with the new one (redid 3 times to check). Have to pull up my database and type in the wp-login.php. * Thanks!

Requests and Feedback is not the best place to ask for help modifying a theme (as well as some of your other issues). * Now to the point: By design, categories without any published posts will not be listed by [wp_list_categories()](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_categories). You can change this through the parameters (specifically, ‘hide_empty’). * If there is a need to reset your password, see: * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Resetting_Your_Password](http://codex.wordpress.org/Resetting_Your_Password) Viewing 1 replies (of 1 total) The topic ‘Category failure’ is closed to new replies. * In: [Requests and Feedback](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/requests-and-feedback/) * 1 reply * 2 participants * Last reply from: [Kafkaesqui](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kafkaesqui/) * Last activity: [18 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/category-failure/#post-690594) * Status: not resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
