Category pages not showing questions

After selecting “Categories” in the main AnsPress menu, I am presented with a list of categories. Each categories shows a correct number of questions in that category.
If I select a category, I’m taken to a page like https://mmdvm.com/questions/categories/hw/. This page shows the category name, but it does not show any of the questions in the category. How do I fix this?
Yes, the category page as the [anspress] short code.
For reference, I am running AnsPress version 4.4.4 and WordPress 6.8.2.

Hi Michael, I’ve faced similar issues with category displays on WordPress plugins before. Sometimes, a quick plugin update or clearing the cache can resolve the problem. If those don’t work, checking the plugin settings or reaching out to the support team might help. Good luck! Basketball Stars

If your theme overrides query behavior or templates, it may prevent category questions from appearing:
Try temporarily switching to a default WordPress theme like Twenty Twenty-Two or Twenty Twenty-Four. MyGreatLakes
If category pages work with a default theme, the issue likely stems from your theme. You’ll need to adjust the theme template to respect AnsPress category queries—typically by ensuring it supports custom post types or taxonomy archives appropriately

Hi, I’m using AnsPress 4.4.4 on WP 6.8.2. The category pages (like /questions/categories/hw/) show the title but no questions — even though the main list shows the correct count. The [anspress] shortcode is there. Any fix for this?

Trying to sort this out between sessions of Speed Stars — a fast-paced little running game I’m oddly addicted to lately. 😄

Thanks!
