What you see in red are the pieces of code I added on to the postbit article template from the Chief First Post mod.

With these little edits I'm able to collapse the first post of the thread in the forums where this mod is active if I'm using the article postbit. The collapsing works and I'm happy with that. The problem is, when I navigate to another page in the same thread, the first post is automatically expanded again. The first post is not remembering to stay collapsed.

Can anybody help me keep the first post stay collapsed? What am I missing from the edits?

Regards.
