Okay, I followed the instructions exactly, and forums home never changed. I selected one of my forums to be collapsed by default, and that didn't change anything.

Outside of what the readme prescribes, what else must I do to enable this to work? Where in admin CP do I turn it on globally? I just went into Forums--Edit to turn on collapsing for one forum.

You need to have a forum depth set to at least 2.
This hack can only collapse forums that would normally appear on the forum home page.

SirSteve: I don't have that hack installed I will look it over and produce a extension to add collapse support for it, when I have time.

All: rapidly expanding/contracting groups will cause it to forget the setting because IE/Netscape queue HTTP requests wait for the background load to happen (notice that collapsing/expanding causes your progress bar to start loading something), Netscape 6 takes slightly longer than IE.. but settings are saved. One extension I would love to provide is a status icon to show the settings being saved but IE lacks support for assigning the onload event dynamically .
