  • Additionally, it may be helpful to note that, when I go to
    Manage->Posts, all Posts are marked as “Uncategorized” while if I do click on any given Post the Categories panel does properly indicate the categories that it belongs to.

    However, curiously the sub-categories that my old articles used to belong to have disappear altogether. They are nowhere to be seen.

    Ditto. I have the exact same problem. I am not sure when it happened. A while ago I upgraded to 2.3.3 but I believe the problem did not exist then. Later I was looking in the Manage->Categories section and there were no categories at all. When I click Edit on a post, I do see all the categories as checkboxes in the upper-right “Category” panel.

    RESOLVED:

    It was a confusion with the user interface for adding/removing categories on the
    post-edit page. I thought that when check or uncheck categories on checkbox list of categories for a box, you are then supposed to press the “Add” button. This is not the case.

    Thus pressing the “Add” button was giving an error message because the text
    input box was empty. Maybe this could be redesigned??

    Best,

    They don’t have any posts in them. Perhaps that explains why they
    are not displayed. (Thanks!) Still does not explain why I cannot add
    them to an existing post.

    It may help you to know additionally that my category structure in the admin panel looks like this:

    Uncategorized
    Impressions
    — Talks
    — Conferences

    Another (possibly related) SYMPTOM is that in my sidebar, where I use
    the simple command <?php wp_list_cats(); ?> you only get to see the “Uncategorized” category.

    Thanks,
    Petar
