- I then tried to define post types for that category in `edit category/posting` but it looked strange:
- 
- The selection lists for post type and tag set have an empty line at the beginning. After some editing (including defining a new post type and allowing at least three post types in "Allowed post types") I can create a Post but only as one of the three allowed post types (an Article).
- It may be related to problems with [rails db:seed](https://collab.codidact.org/posts/285521).
