Info Center collapsed by default, but not disabled/removed

[T_o_m]

To unclutter my forum front page, I'd like the Info Center to be hidden/collapsed by default, unless a user explicitly enables it. The current default is that it's shown, but I can click the (-) link and hide it away. I'd like that to be the default behaviour.

I've found a few postings and mods to completely, or selectively (by permissions, user group, etc.) DISABLE the info center, but that's not what I'm looking for. I don't mind it being there, I just don't want it to clutter up the page, unless a user explicitly requests it.

I'm using SMF 2.0 RC4

Edit  this file (Make backup of file before editing it)

Go to themes\<your theme>\BoardIndex.template.php (if you can find file here, go to Default theme directory and edit it)

Find:

Code Select Expand

bCurrentlyCollapsed: ', empty($options['collapse_header_ic']) ? 'false' : 'true', ',



Replace it with:

Code Select Expand

bCurrentlyCollapsed: ', empty($options['collapse_header_ic']) ? 'true' : 'false', ',
