 * Hi, All,
 * I recently installed a wordpress site for poet and poetry. Where I have cat and
   subcat.
 * The problem is when I enable (in specific theme setting) show first cat in archive
   page its does not always show parent category, sometime its show the sub category
   instead of parent cat.
 * First I think its releted to theme developer but i checked few hr ago with another
   theme and the problem still there. Al though there is no option in theme setting
   about showing cat.
 * Take a look as a in picture it may help you to understand my asking.

 * I want to show only parent cat in archive page not the subcat instead of parent
   cat. Why some post take subcat instead of parent cat.
 * TIA
    KABIR
