Default Forum Group Collapsed
Is there any way to make it so that the default view under catagories for certian forum groups is collapsed (instead of the current method which shows everything unless a user collapses the group)

Was able to figure this one out --- It's a pain in the butt, but unless you are changing your forums around alot it's not too much work:


Was able to find where the new user is written to the database in the User.pm file and added the following line:
user_hidden_cats => "6,4,5,9,7,1",
(numbers are the category numbers that we don't want expanded by default)

This does not help the mess that shows up when a user is not logged in and they are viewing as guest, but as soon as a new user signs up they can have a nice clean interface to expand what they find of interest by default.
