I can't seem to get that code to work (not sure if I'm putting it in the correct place). Can you please copy and paste the entire "category / listing_list" here? Also my client wants the selected category to open by default. i.e. when in a sub category of "CPU", the CPU category will open. Is this possible?

Can I send you the admin login (through contact us?) so you can make tests and adjustments directly? I noticed in the category options, Hikashop already have an option called "Random items" (where a random category bounce up to top & open up). Maybe for future release we can have another option there that allows the active category to bounce up & open?

Thanks regards Simon")* Hi, I looked at the problem on your website regarding the fact that the proper category didn't expand but couldn't find why that could have happened since the selection of the category in PHP was the correct one. And you said in your first message that having no category open would be fine too. So, the code change I gave you was to do that. I checked your website and that's what it is actually doing. No category is opened when a page is displayed. So my suggestion is ok, as far as I can see.

The menu is satisfactory in it's current state but an expanding one (with correct category) would be best. Is this possible?

As I said in my last post, the data sent by HikaShop to the accordion library of joomla is correct on your website. I debugged that myself. So I don't see why it doesn't work on your website and don't have a solution for you.
