Having trouble adding category to event

I am having trouble adding categories to my events. I was able to set up some categories, but when I go into an event I do not see the categories somewhere that I can select. I looked through the forums and cannot seem to find the answer to this issue?

Hi there,

Where did you add the categories? (Event Espresso -> Events -> Categories?)

In the event editor, if you look at the top of the page you’ll see some screen options, is ‘Event Categories’ checked there? – http://take.ms/p08FB

Yes that is how I added the categories. I do not see those boxes in my event editor at all? Not sure where I can go to add the categories

I do not see it there. I shot my developer a message and he said he thinks he removed it from the files when he was setting everything up. Do you know how I can add it back?

Huh? Why would he remove the files from within EE?

In any case, the screenshot from above is from a different page, that’s from Event Espresso -> Events rather than an individual event page.

Edit your event (Event Espresso -> Events -> {Click on event name}), go to the top of the page and click on the ‘Screen options’ tab, do you see the event categories listed there?
