WordPress Mystery Story

One time, I was working in a WordPress site that had a category that contained seemingly random posts. The name was “New Members” and it wasn’t really descriptive of what was actually in it. I went to edit the category and realized I couldn’t delete it.

Then, one day months later, it hit me randomly… someone had renamed “Uncategorized” to “New Members.” – It explained why random things were in it as well as why it couldn’t be deleted.
