You can also create categories on the fly in the post editor at the bottom of the categories module.

The Categories widget displays all the categories assigned to published posts, and its title is just the title of the displayed list (should be "Categories", "Topics" - that sort of thing).

What you need to do is edit each post and add the appropriate category. See here:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/
Once you do that, the Categories widget (which you must add once only) will automatically display your categories.

I'm really battling with this one. I have recently addded four (4) categories to my side bar and I have saved them a few times.
However, when I try to catergorise a new post, it doesn't show that I have any categories? It just says CATEGORIES->UNCATEGORISED. When I go onto my own blog the categories show up in the sidebar though?
I've looked everywhere in the help options but am really battling with this one.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

If your theme allows it you should set up a custom menu from Appearance > Menus and drag across your category links. Then clicking on them will display posts you have assigned to that category.

There is only ONE page in a blog that automatically updates with every post we publish and it's the front page of the blog, unless we choose to change that. When we publish a post it will automatically appear in the Archives and also on the Category pages of the categories that we assigned to a post. We cannot post to Category pages. We can only create the appearance that we have done that by setting up a custom menu. That feature is available for some themes but not for all themes.

Was noticing this while playing around with the widgets....

Category cloud gives you many useful options like max # of categories to show, min/max font percentage, and excluding certain categories. The tag cloud however only gives you the option to add a title to the widget. It seems like the customizations in the Category Cloud widget would be in even more use on the Tag Cloud widget.

I'm not using the Tag Cloud widget mainly because I happen to have gone tag crazy and now have a whopping 400+ unique tags which become way too cluttered when using the widget. I am using the category cloud widget however.

Any thoughts?

Any more than that and you risk getting excluded from the global tags pages here.

1. Catergories.

How do I make it so that when people click on my categories, they can see the posts that I put in the catergory, instead of just a short summary type of thing?

For ex: http://heavenlymusic.wordpress.com/category/dbsk/

Right now, it's in an archive format. How can I change it so that it shows the whole post?

2. How do I arrange the order of posts in a category?

It's pretty much up to how the theme designer did the theme originally. If you use the widgets, it will override the theme's settings though and put them into categoried lists.
