## Untranslated posts now visible in all categories

**Status:** On `development`, pending release.

### What was broken

When the category system is enabled, a post file without a category suffix (e.g. `posts/my-post.md`) was silently assigned to the default category only. Switching to any other category caused those posts to disappear from the nav and from `posts-*` tag listings — even though no translated version existed. If you wrote posts without a language suffix, they simply vanished the moment a visitor switched category.

Pages without a category suffix are unaffected: they continue to be assigned to the default category, which is the correct behaviour for pages.

### What it does now

Posts without a category suffix are treated as uncategorised — meaning they appear in every category. A post called `my-post.md` now shows up regardless of which category is active. A post called `my-post.en.md` still appears only in the `en` category as before.

Mixed situations work as expected: if you have both `my-post.md` and `my-post.nb.md`, the Norwegian variant is shown when the `nb` category is active, and the bare `my-post.md` is shown for every other category.

### What changes in the build output

After rebuilding a site with `mdcms build`, affected post entries in `nav.yml` gain an `uncategorized: true` field:

```yaml
- file: posts/my-post.md
  title: My Post
  sort: 100
  uncategorized: true
```

In `search.json`, these entries carry `"category": null` instead of the default category code. This is what tells the renderer to include them universally.

A rebuild is required for existing sites to pick up the change.
