If that is the sort of behaviour you want I will see if I can find the post where he explained it to me.

Thank you for the info !
What you are describing sounds like what may be looking for.
Should only apply to the homepage category display.
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.
Would be great if you could find the post, if not too much trouble.
