Hi,

In this version, we have made sure that categories are displayed on the backend in the same way as on the frontend. If you need to add the display on the backend as it was in the previous version, please see this topic: [Add multiple category selection support to the back-end form](https://community.hivepress.io/t/add-multiple-category-selection-support-to-the-back-end-form/11491).

​I hope this is helpful to you.
