Collapse/Expand Headers

[OneLung]

I have searched and searched this site and I am still blonde.

Can someone tell me how to disable the users ability to expand/collapse the category headers by clicking the '-' or '+' signs in the right corner.

I would like to disable the users ability to collapse the main header on the top that shows users information.  The other category headers I would like to leave alone and expandable/collapsable.

Thanks in advance.

Daniel.

you have control over that when you create the board.
go into admin...boards..and modify a board, you'll see the check box
allowing collapse.

what version do you have?

Hi,

I have version 1.1RC2

The only expand/collapse button I need to disable is the one at the top of the page (default theme) next to where it displays the date and time.

Thanks,

Daniel.

Open and edit: Themes/theme_name/index.template.php
Backup first!

Find:

// We'll have to use the cookie to remember the header...
if ($context['user']['is_guest'])
$options['collapse_header'] = !empty($_COOKIE['upshrink']);

// Output any remaining HTML headers. (from mods, maybe?)
echo $context['html_headers'], '

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!-- // --><![CDATA[
var current_header = ', empty($options['collapse_header']) ? 'false' : 'true', ';

function shrinkHeader(mode)
{';

// Guests don't have theme options!!
if ($context['user']['is_guest'])
echo '
document.cookie = "upshrink=" + (mode ? 1 : 0);';
else
echo '
smf_setThemeOption("collapse_header", mode ? 1 : 0, null, "', $context['session_id'], '");';

echo '
document.getElementById("upshrink").src = smf_images_url + (mode ? "/upshrink2.gif" : "/upshrink.gif");

document.getElementById("upshrinkHeader").style.display = mode ? "none" : "";
document.getElementById("upshrinkHeader2").style.display = mode ? "none" : "";

current_header = mode;

// the routine for the info center upshrink
echo '
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!-- // --><![CDATA[

document.getElementById("upshrinkHeaderIC").style.display = mode ? "none" : "";

current_header_ic = mode;

Thank you for the help.  Your mod worked great.  The only problem I encountered was that the expand/collapse button still existed on the Forum Stats box at the bottom of my index page.  If you click on the button, you get a JavaScript error because the code it refers too no longer exists.

I opened up Boardindex.template.php, found and removed the following code and all is working good now.

<div class="catbg" style="padding: 6px; vertical-align: middle; text-align: center; ">
<a href="#" onclick="shrinkHeaderIC(!current_header_ic); return false;"><img id="upshrink_ic" src="', $settings['images_url'], '/', empty($options['collapse_header_ic']) ? 'collapse.gif' : 'expand.gif', '" alt="*" title="', $txt['upshrink_description'], '" style="margin-right: 2ex;" align="right" /></a>
', $txt[685], '
</div>
<div id="upshrinkHeaderIC"', empty($options['collapse_header_ic']) ? '' : ' style="display: none;"', '>

Thanks again... I LOVE this message board software!
