Collapsing Categories

Author: Robert Felty

This is a very simple plugin that uses Javascript to form a collapsable set of links in the sidebar for the categories. Every post corresponding to a given category will be expanded.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION regarding wordpress 2.7 and 2.8

Version 1.0.alpha is an alpha version. It is compatible with wordpress 2.8, but not compatible with prior versions. If you are using wordpress 2.7.1 or earlier, please use collapsing categories version 0.9.9. Also beware that there is a good chance that there may be some bugs.

If you prefer to insert code into your theme manually instead of using widgets, please note that the manual installation instructions have changed.
