Some fixed-order categories don't show up in Categories (Home)

For example,

Does not show up in our main page category @ https://forum.imperium42.com

…despite being ranked order # 6 :

Bonus question: How can I both show and hide categories that show up on the left side? Eg, I wouldn’t like off topic to be a “featured” category.

I read that there’s a “Hide from Home Page” option… but I can’t find it for the life of me. I’m pretty sure I remember seeing it before (which is why it may be hidden), but … did it poof?

I thought it’d be in a specific category settings >> settings tab.

Are you talking about Suppress category from latest topics? That is in the category settings tab.

Hmm, I don’t think that’s right:

Save category >> Navigate to home page (split right side latest, left side categories) >>

It’s not there:

https://forum.imperium42.com

Forum Matches appears for me. We’re talking about the category with the white banner and red cross, bottom left corner, right?

Whoa, what the – yea!

I just went to Incognito and I can see it fine. This is a bit bizarre:

Mine doesn’t show up at all, haha, any idea what would cause this? I wonder if I could have possibly clicked something to locally suppress the category (a personal option)? Others are also reporting that it’s just me (strangely, the board owner).

EDIT: Seems like users cannot suppress a category (individually), looking at Can users hide Categories from the Categories list?

…So now I’m just confused :stuck_out_tongue:

That’s not correct. Users can mute categories, which hides them from most parts of the UI. Can you check https://forum.imperium42.com/my/preferences/categories and see if it’s listed under muted?
