[SOLVED] CB Blog categories was created by tsandberg
I know they are pulled from Yoomla, but I can't seem to get that done. I have no categories when I try to create a blog. Can someone please direct me to a place where I can learn this?

Thanks in advance.

You need to create content categories from your Joomla backend.

COntent -> Category Manager

Thanks Nick

I did. I have 4 categories. The only place they show is under CB>config>CMS but not under categories.. anywhere.

I use Joomla 2.5 btw.

You need to establish a parent caregory that'll hold all your blog categories. Example as follows.

Blogs
- General
- Movies
- Games

Now in CB Blogs > Config > CMS you select "Blogs" as the "Section" and press Save. Now you should see your 3 categories when creating a blog on frontend.
