# Steps

1. Create sub-category (Finance as a sub-category of Team)

1. Reorder sub-category given fixed category positions (Finance placed between External Comms and General Circle)

# Timeline

It’s been an hour since I created the sub-category and the problem persists in [safe mode](https://meta.discourse.org/t/53504?silent=true).

I figured out what was wrong! My site mutes all categories by default. I needed to unmute the new sub-category and once I did that, the category displayed correctly. Thanks, all.
