Since my uncategorized topics page is still accessible by URL by ordinary users (it’s now a totally blank page), if I could just remove the Uncategorized link from the hamburger menu I wouldn’t have random users clicking there and getting that blank page. So far the CSS solutions I’ve found have not worked. I’d be fine with removing ALL the category links from the hamburger menu, actually. Obviously, I’ve checked this both from a staff and ordinary user account, and have unchecked the “permit uncategorized posts” setting. Thanks!
