<p>WP Categories Metabox Extended extends the Category metabox on your WordPress editor. Once installed the Category metabox gets a search bar with which you search Categories. Also, this is only seen on “Add New Post” screen in the WordPress Admin dashboard.</p>
<p>From <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/wordpress-version/version-5-0/" rel="ugc">WordPress 5.0</a>, the search bar is included with the Categories metabox. In case you choose to use the Classic editor by using plugins like <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-gutenberg/" rel="ugc">Disable Gutenberg</a>, then WP Categories Metabox Extended plugin will continue to extend the Categories metabox for the default “Post” post type.</p>
