    I have already changed the permalinks from Categories to Topics. But how to change the word "Categories" at the bottom of the blog post?

    It's in your theme files. Probably footer.php.

    It should be in one of the theme files. But i cannot find it. No, it's not in the footer.php. So is not in index.php and post-singular.php.

    What you do is you search through all your theme's files with a decent text-editor (or via CLI) and you find "categories" and replace it with "topics" - just make a note of it, because it will be back to normal next time you update your theme (if it's not self-made, that is). You DO update your theme, right?

    Do you mean the individual content you've posted? "Categories" at the bottom of each post? If you want to change that, I'm assuming you're using wordpress (you are.) Try searching in your post.php or other .php files(depending on your theme). Ctrl+F >> "Categories" and replace it with the appropriate text. Hope this helps.

    haha okay but remember, a headless chicken stops running after a short while ;)

    Btw, in order to do what you want to do, I believe it's in your single.php file.

    Let us know if you have any other questions. :)

    Well, anyway, as I have suspected it is NOT in any one of those usual "suspects" (single.php, footer.php or post.php). I knew it is inside one of the file because when I tried commenting out that particular file just to check it out, and sure enough both "Categories" and "Tag" did not appear.

    I have gone thru' all the php files a couple of times. It (together with "Tags") are "hidden" in a "content" file inside one of php file. Here you won't see the the term "Categories".

    I wrote to the theme creator, he said that I need to change the content source. He advised me to refer to WordPress Codex Function Reference/get the category list.
