Finding Category ID in wordpress

I was doing some changes on my theme the other day.  Somehow it requires category ID which is no where to be found.  I did some trial and error putting various numbers in the column,  and it still did not work.  Finally after some googling I managed to find a simple trick.

First go to post >> categories

How to find wordpress category id

 

Next just click “edit” on any of the category that we are interested in.  Our browser will display a complete url along with the category ID.  Never realize it will be that simple.
