== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How do I find my category/tag ID number? =

When editing a category or tag, the URL in your browser will look something like this:
`yoursite.com/wp-admin/edit-tags.php?action=edit&taxonomy=category&tag_ID=25&post_type=post`

The number after tag_ID is your category or tag ID.
