Adding blog categories

I wanted to let you know that in order to help you better navigate the site, I’m splitting a couple of the categories.  The category that used to be ‘recipes, menu plans’ will now be two separate categories.  So far I’ve transferred 33 weeks of menu plans to the new ‘menu plans’ category, leaving only 85 posts in the recipes category (most of which are recipes – there are still a handful of menu plans to re-label, which I hope to finish off in the next couple of days).

After that, I’ll be splitting the ‘nutrition, home remedies’ category into two. A blog is kind of  like organizing your house – there’s always something a little more you can do to make it more efficient!

I think this will make it easier for you to go through categories and find what you want.

    Actually, as I was doing this last night, I thought, there’s got to be an easier way on WP than changing every single post manually! It was very inefficient and time consuming. 🙁 Want to send me some tips? :))

    I think you:
    1. click on posts
    2. click on all the ones you want to move to category X
    3. the drop down on top reads bulk actions — so choose edit
    4. then press the Apply button.
    5. You’ll then see all those posts on the edit.php page, where you can check which category you want them to be in.
    🙂

      Wow, thank you very much! This is the screen that I’ve been frustrated not knowing where/how to access – I used to use this function a lot on the old dashboard which was a WP add-on, and couldn’t believe that the full version didn’t have it. Thank you again!

    I suspect it has more to do with the fact that WP has updated itself so frequently in the past few months and the formatting of the dashboard changed more than the difference between the WP-add on and the full version 🙂
