 * Hi,
 * I would like help with a couple of issues.
    1. I would like to only show the active doc’s category in the left sidebar.
    2. I want to remove the dropdown feature of the sidebar category and only show 
       it as a list.
 * Thanks for any help you can give.

 * Hi [moonshotadi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/moonshotadi/),
   Greetings.
   Hope you are doing well.Thanks for reaching out to us. Please check the following
   according to your queries:**1.** In order to show the active doc’s category on
   the left sidebar, you need to use custom CSS. Please use the following custom
   CSS:
 * `#betterdocs-sidebar .betterdocs-single-category-wrapper.category-grid.active.
   default.show {
    display: block;}
 * 
   `#betterdocs-sidebar .betterdocs-single-category-wrapper.category-grid.default{
   display: none;}
 * You can simply add custom CSS by navigating to your **WordPress Dashboard -> 
   Appearance -> Customize**.
 * After you are on the **Customizer** page, search for the **“Additional CSS”**
   option. You can then go ahead and insert CSS Code. Please check this screencast
   to learn more – [https://d.pr/v/QrrfTw](https://d.pr/v/QrrfTw)
   **2.** I have 
   checked your query. But it’s not totally clear to me. Can you please describe
   it a bit more? So that I can understand it and get back to you with a good solution.
   Will you please tell me if you don’t want to show the nested subcategory in the
   sidebar category list?
 * Thank you.

 * Hi [@amitbarai013](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amitbarai013/)
 * Thanks for your help.
   Please have at a look at the image link. I would like the
   list of pages to show without the dropdown feature. Hope you can help. Thanks.

 * Hi [moonshotadi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/moonshotadi/),
   Thanks for
   sharing the screencast with us. It seems that you are using **Modern** or **Abstract**
   layout on your single docs page. Actually, if you use these layouts then you 
   will get the dropdown style. If you want to show without the dropdown, then you
   need to use **Classic, Minimalist, Artisan,** **Bohemian** layout. You can easily
   change the layout from the **Customize** option. Navigate to the **Customize**
   option form your single doc page. Then navigate to **BetterDocs > Single Docs
   > Layout > from here, you can change the layout > Publish/Update**. Please check
   this screencast to get the details: [https://d.pr/v/A37ntL](https://d.pr/v/A37ntL)
   Let me know how it goes.Thank you.
