Are these new users or existing users?

If they are existing users, when you change the default sidebar categories, you’ll have to apply the changes in the settings historically:

That only applies the _change_ historically, so if you have already added default categories that you want to apply historically now, you’ll have to do the following:

1. Remove the categories and click “No, only apply change going forward”
2. Add them back, and click “Yes”
