## Descrición

This is a simple plugin which is designed to help the posters who some times forget
to select the post category and post is published under default category. Once activated,
this plugin will force the users to select post category while adding new post to
wordpress site. Whenever User tries to publish a post without selecting category,
it will give an alert to the user and also highlight the category selection area
so that user can see from where to select the post category.
 Moreover, If poster
hasn’t selected the category while clicking on publish button, it will save the 
post as draft under default, so no need to worry about loosing the post content 
in any case due to this plugin.

Just found this little gem of a plugin. Its so simple to use, literally just install
then forget about it. I have two categories, and needed to make sure at least one
of them was selected. This did the job perfectly. Thanks!
