Hi all, guys i would like to make the categories to collapse slowers and smoother, i would like to make them work like here:

http://pbwow.com/forum/index.php?

Thanks

they are using this:
http://github.com/danielstocks/jQuery-Collapse/

but you could probably just edit general.js:

// Expanding
 if(expandedItem.is(":hidden"))
 {
 expandedItem.toggle("fast");
 collapsedItem.toggle("fast");
 this.saveCollapsed(controls);
 }
 // Collapsing
 else
 {
 expandedItem.toggle("fast");
 collapsedItem.toggle("fast");
 this.saveCollapsed(controls, 1);
 }

i changed the code to slow, but is not collapsing nice.., i would like to see it collapsing like on pbwow...

Are you experiencing this in IE? If yes, the buggy behavior may be fixed in 1.8.1: https://github.com/mybb/mybb/issues/1366

Table rows itself can't be animated (it was always like that). Some effects (like fadeIn/Out) are supported but if you want a slideIn/Out effect make a few changes to general.js

line 575 

find 

	else if(expandedItem.length && !collapsedItem.length)
		{

and below that add

if ( expandedItem.find("td > .table_cell").length ) {
          
         } else {
  expandedItem.find("td").wrapInner("<div class='table_cell'></div>");
 }

after that find (few lines below)

expandedItem.toggle("fast");

and below that add

$(".table_cell").addClass("hide");
$(".table_cell").slideDown();

Find (10 lines below that code above)

expandedItem.toggle("fast");

and below that paste

		$(".table_cell").removeClass("hide");
				$(".table_cell").slideUp();

and in global.css of your theme add

.hide {
 display:none;
}

This edit is checking if a table cell in collapsed / expanded element (tbody) has a div (with class .table_cell) inside (if not it adds one) and it's sliding it up / down.
