Categories not displayed in blog edit page

Hi I have updated to the latest version of perch 2.8.16 & installed the blog 5.0 app for the first time.

When I create a post I do not see my categories under the 'Publishing' section of the post edit page.

I do have the categories enabled in the app config file & I have several categories created but they are not available in the blog post screen.

Have I missed something?

It should be created automatically for you. But if you've now created it, you're good to go.
