May I have assistance to hide subcategories (but NOT the subcategory count) on "Container" categories and only display them after a user clicks on the container category?

The webpage is NOT user-friendly at all for mobile users on websites with many subcategories.

I have seen the following similar thread, but it is a few years old and pre-dates EasyDiscuss 5:

- https://stackideas.com/forums/scramble-sub-categories

Any assistance would surely be appreciated.
Unfortunately, it required some customization in the core file in order to achieve this "only display them after a user clicks on the container category".

By the way, you can apply the following CSS from your site backend > Easydiscuss > setting > custom CSS so it will hide the subcategories on the categories listing page.



body #ed.view-categories.layout-default .ed-subcategories-wrapper .l-cluster--comma-list {

     display: none;

}

Yes, that code worked well for me.
That is exactly what I wanted to accomplish.

Can you make this thread public so others have access to the code?

Actually, that code only works if it is added to my default theme custom CSS.

It did not work when added to: "Site Backend > Easydiscuss > Setting > Custom CSS

I think you have to resave the setting again from Site Backend > Easydiscuss > Setting > Custom CSS since you have changed your template to other recently.

By the way, actually you apply this custom CSS from your current template also no problem.

Yes, you are correct!

The code works when added to the template's custom CSS code section.
