 * Hello,
 * I have built a frontend post submission form which defaults to “User Posts” category.
   However, now all blog posts (even ones added through the backend and assigned
   other categories) are showing up with the “User Posts” category on the Single
   Post view.
 * If I browse to the proper category for the post, “News & Updates”, the post shows
   up in the loop – so it’s really only an issue with the Single Post view.
 * Any idea why this could be or how we can resolve it?
 * Thanks!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fposts-categorized-improperly%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hello [@jmessy919](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jmessy919/),
 * On the settings of every single form has the option to select the Default post
   category. If the form does not have the category field the post will submit on
   that default category. Check this [screenshot.](https://prnt.sc/lyznxp)
 * If your posts that are not created with WPUF forms but the posts are getting 
   the category selected on WPUF form, then there is something else happening.
 * Thanks.

 * Hi [@emazharulislam](https://wordpress.org/support/users/emazharulislam/) – this
   was a theme-related issue. Thanks!
