    Hi Everyone,

    This plugin is fantastic and it accomplishes everything I need it to do. I am in the middle of building a website, and I had this plugin setup and running flawlessly, but somewhere along the line I ran into a problem.

    The category field, which was previously showing up and functioning fine, is no longer showing. I checked the plugin settings and the category fields are all checked and the option to show categories is also checked, but it still wont show up on the website. This is particularly weird because it was previously working, and I did absolutely no editing to any of the plugin code.

    Any Ideas?

    Thanks in Advance

    It’s difficult to guess what the issue might be, but if you can provide a link to take a look at, or any error messages, etc., I would be glad to investigate.

    I definitely want to give you any info you may need to help, but I haven’t published the site yet as I still have some stuff to do on it so I cant really give you a link. I also don’t know where I would find error messages since I’m not getting any. Sorry, as you can probably tell i’m very new to this haha.

    I really appreciate the quick response however, so if you could be more specific in any way I could help to solve this problem that would be awesome.

    Thanks Again

    Yep, glad to help, but in order to do so, the issue needs to be recreated so it can be tested. Or bare minimum, the page needs to be viewed/investigated. If neither of these are possible for you, I would recommend the usual routine of temporarily disabling all other plugins and switching to the default theme. Then try again, re-enabling each plugin between each attempt. Or if it’s easier you can just set up a new default install of WP to verify that it works, and then build up from there. Good luck.

    That Worked! I deactivated other plugins, deleted user submitted posts, downloaded it again, and reactivated the other plugins. This seemed to solve the problem, although I’m not sure why.

    Thanks for your patience.

    Awesome, glad it helped. Yes, sometimes wires get crossed over time or with lots of plugins so one of the first things to do when something isn’t working is disable everything and start fresh.
