Easy way to create bulk categories. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d47fafa105d782ed92a7be1526b1020432181921ef76b0149f421fe8b54b54a4? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Set a parent category regardless](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/set-a-parent-category-regardless/)󠁿 [Marco Panichi](https://profiles.wordpress.org/marcopanichi/) February 14, 2024 Even if you set “No” category, the plugin sets the “Uncategorized” category as the parent category. This is absurd, especially if you don’t know and you create hundreds of categories that you then have to arrange by hand! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/5afa2ba7278750f8f1b2cbb336158eaabbf4fa3460bf977c0d69bd76932724d8? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Parent Category Issue](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/parent-category-issue-2/)󠁿 [vet10](https://profiles.wordpress.org/vet10/) July 23, 2023 Even if you set it to have no parent, it still puts all categories under a parent.
