If i understand correctly then this shouldn’t be too hard and i would suggest using this Taxonomy Meta Script to simply add a rich editor , an image field and anything else you need for each category , this would make your life easier.
a simple way to hide it would be to find the ID of the category li and use css to set it to display:none. function hide_the_category(){ ?> <style type=”text/css”> li#category-4{ display:none; } </style> <?php } add_action( “admin_head”, “hide_the_category” );

Click posts–>filter by Category A Click Edit—> select all posts ( clicking top square next to “title”)–>Apply Click Category B and … Read more
That’s damn simple, see here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_categories . The sample downhere should work: $kids = get_categories(array(‘child_of’=>get_query_var(‘cat’)));
