How do I change the style of the collapsing archives lists?

The collapsing archives plugin uses several IDs and classes which can be styled with CSS. These can be changed from the settings page. You may have to rename some of the id statements. For example, if your sidebar is called "myawesomesidebar", you would rewrite the line

#sidebar li.collapsArch {list-style-type:none} to #myawesomesidebar li.collapsArch {list-style-type:none}

If you are using the plugin manually (i.e. inserting code into your theme), you may want to replace #sidebar with #collapsArchList

= There seems to be a newline between the collapsing/expanding symbol and the category name. How do I fix this? =

If your theme has some css that says something like

that is the problem. You probably want to add a float:left to the .sym class

How do I include/exclude pages, or posts belonging to certain categories?

Check the corrisponding boxes in the widget settings. If you are using WPML, please enter each category multiple times as the ID/name of the translations is required alongside the default language. See OPTIONS AND CONFIGURATIONS for manual triggering.
