   Hi Peter,
   playing around with the categories, grouped and displayed per page I am wondering whether it would be possible to show categories as collapsed, make them expandable? What are your thoughts?

   Yes it's possible but it needs some javascript/jQuery coding and it's not included in the plugin. I'm assuming you mean like on my blog in the sidebar with the widget Kernel Compile Artciles or the Popular Articles widget

   yes, correct, but I would let the already expanded nodes open so as to keep the "picture more quite". More like the ususal tree behaviour in a system: you expand node 1, you expand node 2 and node 1 remains expanded as well....would be a great setting for the plugin ;-)

   Yet where would I need to place which javascript? Can you give me a hint?
   thx
   Anita

   The javascript should be loaded through the WordPress system with the wp_enqueue_script in the footer.

   Javascript uses, jQuery, jQuery-UI and jQuery-Cookies
