And, yes, would like the homepage to open always with categories in a collapsed view... and, if possible, to go back to the collapsed view if the homepage is refreshed.

If you don't mind the categories will be collapsed when the index is refreshed or every times the index is accessed, you can try this:

functions_forumlist.php, find:

PHP Code:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

if(isset($collapsed[$collapsed_name]) && $collapsed[$collapsed_name] == "display: show;") { $expcolimage = "collapse_collapsed.gif"; $expdisplay = "display: none;"; $expaltext = "[+]"; } else { $expcolimage = "collapse.gif"; $expaltext = "[-]"; }

Change it to:

PHP Code:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

if(isset($collapsed[$collapsed_name]) && $collapsed[$collapsed_name] == "display: show;") { $expcolimage = "collapse.gif"; $expaltext = "[-]"; } else { $expcolimage = "collapse_collapsed.gif"; $expdisplay = "display: none;"; $expaltext = "[+]"; }

Personally (only my personal opinion), I prefer to do a template edit (maybe forumbit_depth1_cat) by using a javascript toggle things, like accordion and etc.
