Hello,
I’ve tried solutions in older threads with no success. Is there a way to actually delete an uncategorized category? I know about going to the admin panel and disabling uncategorized post but this simply hides the category. Is there a way to fully delete it? I don’t even know how it was created.
Thank you!
It isn’t an actual category, it is a state of having no category applied to a topic. So “deleting it” makes no sense. It is like you are asking us to delete the number zero because it has no value.
So, I inherited this forum which might be part of the confusion on my end. Are you saying that this category IS the uncategorized category where uncategorized topics go by default and it’s just been renamed to something else?
Ok, yeah, I’m pretty sure that’s what it is. I thought any category could be uncategorized (which I thought was weird grammatically) but knowing that it IS the uncategorized category makes more sense! Thanks!
I think, Deleting it is not a good thing.
It’s better to prevent it from displaying it
This is a fairly common confusion. Often someone will rename and or try to repurpose uncategorized.
I think uncategorized should be either off by default (to increase the likelihood that whoever turns it on will know what it means) or have deciding about whether to use it be part of the wizard (which it may well be already).
I think part of that is because it is referred to as an “uncategorized category” when it is more like "topics not assigned to a category " or “catch-all category”.
I had hoped that the “do not repurpose” would make it obvious that messing with it could lead to problems, but it seems it’s still very much a you don’t understand until you understand thing.
If the text warning isn’t enough maybe code can take away the ability to break it?
자, 좀 무례하게 이 주제를 다시 끄집어내 보겠습니다. 이제 Discourse에서 분류 없는 주제를 작성하는 것조차 불가능하게 설정할 수 있는 기능이 실제로 추가되었으니, 이 유물(레릭)을 삭제하거나, 최소한 숨길 수 있도록 해야 하지 않을까요? 왜 심지어 다른 카테고리의 하위 카테고리로 이동하는 것조차 불가능한지 궁금합니다. 제로로 나누기라는 비유는 알지만, 지금은 그냥 거기에 떡 붙어 있는 눈살이 찌푸려지는, 이름이 '분류 없음’인 빈 카테고리일 뿐입니다… 보기 좋지 않네요 
사이트 설정이 ‘분류되지 않음’ 카테고리를 숨기는 것 같습니다. 제 Discourse 사이트에서는 이 설정을 꺼 두었는데, 해당 위치에 ‘분류되지 않음’ 카테고리가 보이지 않습니다.
하, 물론 네 말이 맞았어. 강제 새로고침을 하거나 몇 분 정도 처리 시간을 기다려야 사라지더라… 후… 비분류 카테고리 아닌 카테고리여, 안녕
