If you have converted categories to tags and are now left with a lot of posts that have no category assigned (that show up with ‘Uncategorized,’ unlinked, as the category under Posts), you can use this plugin to assign the default category to all those posts at once.

Thanks for this great plugin! Easy to use and powerful.



Works great, thanks!

Simple but effective. Still works on my last version Wordpress. It's not sofisticate and do his job. Obviously you must know what you are doing.

Still works

Assigns the default category to all posts that have no category after you've converted your categories to tags.

On the post editing screen, after saving a post, you will notice that the checked categories are displayed on top, breaking the category hierarchy. This plugin removes that “feature”.
Additionally, it automatically scrolls to the first checked category.
Works with custom taxonomies too.

Category Checklist Tree

Simple and without configuration, it's just does what it says it does.



Works as expected

Really, I just can't understand why WordPress developers walk another way - this is, how it should be! :)
I have launched over 100 websites on WordPress - and they all have this plugin.
Thanks again!

Thanks!
