    Categories have disappeared from the sidebar.
    They are created but I cannot use them in blog posts.
    Nor does it work for Post & Page Grid Blocks
    What's going on? How can I recover the functionality of the categories?
    Here are some screenshots.

    I can't select which categories to see.
    I can't assign categories to posts.

    If you are using the Landing Page template, it does not have a sidebar. You will need to change to another template, such as the default template.
