While testing CBBlog it does not have the selectable category available as set up in the plugin.
Configuration => Blogs => Internal
In the only box available I entered 4 categories as instructed = "Input comma seperated list of internal categories."
I did this with no spaces between the comma and words. It did not input the category.
I did it again with a space between the comma and words. It did not input the category.
I tried with a single word. Still no selectable category available.

FRONT END - User cannot create a blog because the field is required. The user cannot enter their own category because it's a drop down selectable list only.

BACK END - (CB Blogs => Blogs) I cannot choose a category to filter by or enter a category. The "Select Category" function is empty.

Is there a solution to get the categories available so that users can create their blog?

I got it.

After about 2 days of messing with around and banging my head against the wall. It turned out to be a simple fix (usually is).

CBBlogs => Configuration => Blogs => General - "Modal"

To get the categories switch from AUTO DETECT to INTERNAL (hence "internal category").

Anyways, Just in case someone else runs into this - here's an answer.

Next release of CB the CB Blogs plugin is included with core and the default modal will be Internal. This should help avoid any initial usage issues. Sorry for the confusion.
