 * Hello,
 * As checked, seems no category widget added to the sidebar.
 * Please go to Appearance > Widget, add the category widget to your widget area.
 * If you are facing any issue with the widget area, you can try the classic widget
   plugin.

 * Thanks! I have added the widget. I do see the category at the sidebar next to
   the post. Is it also possible to see the category at the page of the blog where
   all posts are shown in thumbnails.
 * Thanks,
    Hazel

 * Hello,
 * Do you mean display categories on the post, same in thumbnail format?
    If yes,
   then you have to edit the file. Here you can get the display category code.
