Blog category listing not updating

Hi, I'm having trouble with a listing of blog categories on blog/index.php. I've added categories to the Blog set but when I save first test blog post no categories are listed on the main blog home page. However, when I add a second post, the first post category becomes listed but not the second, and so on as I add posts. Archive by date listing is fine. I've reverted to the example blog/index.php and I still have the same problem. I'm running latest version of Perch and Blog.

Could you post your diagnostics?

Hi Louise, it might be worth setting Perch to Development mode.

Blog caches things to be efficient but you can switch this off while developing by adding define('PERCH_PRODUCTION_MODE', PERCH_DEVELOPMENT); to perch/config/config.php

I had a similar issue. Try that and see if it helps. (Don't forget to remove it when you go live).
