Don't show subcategories in sideboxes

[lidlchris]

not sure if this is a setting that needs to be changed or a coding change.

when you click on a category in a sidebox, it expands and shows all subcategories below that category. I don't want it to. i just want it to always show ONLY categories. how do i do this?

i think you missed my point.. this setting appears to be ONLY for the initial load of the screen.. i have it set up to NOT show subcategories and they do not show the first time you come to a screen. but if you click on the category they now expand and DO show the subcategories and i don't want them to.

Did you set that option to 0 and check your site ? On my test site it does exactly what you said you wanted in your original post. See it at stevesh.com/demo

yikes.. i forget that for that site i am using the multi site plugin and had to change that setting in the config_file instead of in my admin section... just changed it to a 0 in my config file and it now works... thanks and sorry for all the trouble.
