 * I noticed that I am no longer able to change categories for any of the users.
   The check boxes are all grayed out now. Only the select all check box is clickable.

 * The only time a check box is greyed out is when you have made it a compulsory
   category.

 * Thanks! How would I make them not compulsory? I’ve been trying to figure out 
   how, but no luck

   under the Registered Users tab.
