Title: "No Categories" Display Error Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # "No Categories" Display Error * [EasyBlogger123](https://wordpress.org/support/users/easyblogger123/) * (@easyblogger123) * [14 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/no-categories-display-error/) * I think i have a display error on my blog site. It currently says “categories” on the RightColumn on the website and reads “no categories” underneath. When i go to the back office “categories” is not included in the RightColumn section! I cannot seem to get rid of this at all – I have tried adding the Categories widget to the right column and it adds successfully but does not override the first one which still shows up on the website. * This seems to be an error, any advice? Is there anyway to access this and just get rid of it? it is right at the top of my right hand column and looks rubbish!
