Working on the templatecodes layout and have a question-how do I get the sidebar to be open all the time?
I want the main cats, navigation, etc. to always be open and visible. Thanks!

Not sure you can do this without quite a bit of customisation to the javascript files for the accordion. A simpler solution is to take those parts of the accordion out (templatezones/templates/accordion.tpl and put the code in some of the adspaces if you are not using them. Alternatively, you could take some adspaces and copy the code for them directly into the layout.tpl file. Then fill those with the code you have extracted from the accordion. If you are familar with html, a bit of smarty and css you should be able to accomplish this.

If you wish me to have a go at it then please contact me.

Your suggestion of using the adspaces was perfect. Heading in the right direction now. Thank you!
