Why Categorize when you have Post Kinds and Tags – Disabling categories in WordPress

Consider putting all your changes in a child theme. Look at my child theme as an example.

add to functions.php in your theme:

function dougbeal_unregister_categories() {
    register_taxonomy( 'category', array() );
}
add_action( 'init', 'dougbeal_unregister_categories' );
unregister_widget( 'WP_Widget_Categories' );

It’s Alive

I have WordPress with all the indie web fixings, using the SemPress theme.

Not sure about viability. One important use case is Instagram crossposting here via OwnYourGram. It creates posts and uploads images, but doesn’t display usefully. Do I need to hack some php to get them to show up properly?
