 * Hi,
   I’m facing an issue when I want to create a new category. The error “empty
   term” appears. I have disabled all the plugins and switched on the original theme
   but the problem remains. So the new category is not created.Do you know or have
   an idea about the origin of this problem?Thanks in advance for your help,
