 * I am not sure when this thing started happening but there is no way to, create
   new categories! Whenever I try creating one, there is not input box and the “
   Private” “Public” options are not even clickable! When clicking to create a category
   anyway, I get an error message that the category name cannot be empty.

 * Hi. The issue was that I was calling the `cbxwpbookmark-mycat` through another
   plugin that was displaying tabs. I imagine that, in doing so, there was a problem
   with the shortcode rendering. I decided to call the shortcode directly from a
   shortcode block on the **Bookmarks** page. It works fine now.
 * Thank you.
