 There is UI issues on the Category page in the WordPress admin when adding
 or deleting categories:


 1. Navigate to Posts.

 2. In the Categories panel, click “+ Add Category”.

 3. Enter a new category name (e.g., Test Category 1) and click “Add New
 Category”.

 4. The new category gets added and auto-selected via JavaScript (AJAX).

 5. Without saving or refreshing the page, add another new category (e.g.,
 Test Category 2) in the same way.

 6. Observe the category count in the top right.

 7. Expected: The category count should increment.

 8. Actual: The count remains unchanged or still shows 1, even though the
 second category should increase the count.
