Can you guys please add a checkbox in admin panel that will make all categories with subcategories to open `/none` page by default? It would be very handy if you use “show subcategory list” feature, because in this type of view second dropdown is missing when you open category. And the only way for user to get to `/none` page is to open any subcategory, then second dropdown appears and you can select “none” from it. Pretty hardcore logic. I will probably change links of all categories that have subcategories to `/none` via JS if this feature won’t be added. But it would be nicer to have this implemented. ---

This is related to > [@When in a category, default to "none" rather than "all" subcategories](https://meta.discourse.org/t/when-in-a-category-default-to-none-rather-than-all-subcategories/26173): > > I’d like to find a way to default the view for all users to display “none” rather than “all” subcategories, when in a category. “all” would be an option they could select. Is there any way to achieve this? Generally, my community is finding “none” as an option to select unintuitive. ---
