Can someone tell me what parameter needs to be changed and where, so that my managecategories.asp page will open expanded by default?

Thanks in advance.

I recall that this came up some time last year, I believe, on the forum here, but I don't recall what became of it. You might try searching for it (or maybe someone else remembers if there was a solution on this).

Hi, as it would only save a single click would it be worth the effort? (expand all option is top right of the list of the categories).

Hi ammonihah,

It's actually easy to make the categories expand by default.

Modify manageCategories.asp. Around line 281, after:
<!--End of AJAX Functions-->

Add this:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() { ExpandAll(); });
</script>


I'm not sure if this is the ideal place to put this code, but I just tested it on my site and it worked fine.

Thanks. I will try this. And yes, it is worth it when you are working heavily in categories.

No problem. It seems like often when people come here asking for a solution, a common response is, "why would you need that solution anyways?"

I find it's better to let you decide what solution you do and don't need, and just figure out how to provide it, whether I agree that it's necessary or not.

I did this and it works fine.  I agree it is very necessary, I always wondered why it collapses every time. When you modify one product and want to go to another one, you have to open it repeatedly...it is very annoying.
