# Parent Category Dropdown is Missing

 * When I go to edit a category, one of the fields “Parent Category” which is a 
   drop down goes missing.
 * The screen flickers and shows it for a second then goes missing. Once I disabled
   the plugin, I can see it and category edit works.
 * I have tested it on two sites and both exhibit the same problem.

 * I have already figured it out.
 * Once I disable “MathRank” plugin – it is all working.
 * As soon as “MathRank” is enabled, it breaks.
