Could you please sure a screenshot of the new post screen using http://imgur.com? I would like to see something. Make sure the categories box is expanded so that I can see how they are structured.

See how the “Audio Rippers & Converters” sub cat is under “Audio and MP3 Software” cat? Well if I choose to have a post listed in the sub category, it also displays in the main category above. I’m hoping I am doing something wrong.
Is that the only one (or type of category) that you have the problem with? I ask this because that is a sub category of a sub category.
That said, I do believe this is a bug in WordPress and not you doing anything wrong. Please submit a ticket here: https://core.trac.ww.wp.xz.cn/ so they can look further into it.
Please also post a link to the ticket in this thread so others can refer to it if they are having the same issue!
No, there are others. Some in sub categories and others in sub sub categories. Its weird. I did have a plugin “Remove Category URL” that I was using but after deactivating this and clearing the cache it is still the same. I will raise a ticket as you have suggested and see what can be done.
Thanks for the help Davood, its much appreciated.
James.
No problem, always happy to help! After all, that is what the forum is here for. It would be nice if you posted a link to the Core Trac ticket here as well so others can follow it if they would like to 🙂
