I’ve updated the locations plugin to add support for Layouts 0.2 👍
[https://github.com/paviliondev/discourse-locations/commit/5ea8ecdf8f2c10b6fa7d0806a693e498383cbc79](https://github.com/paviliondev/discourse-locations/commit/5ea8ecdf8f2c10b6fa7d0806a693e498383cbc79)
If you have both plugins installed you’ll see a “Map” widget in the layout widget list.

I love the customization provided with this plugin. The question I have, is what might be the best way to attack changing the show/hide icon? Personally, I’m using this to show/hide an instance of embedded Rocket Chat I’m hosting. So, naturally I’d like to make the icon match better than the +/- currently used.
I’ve altered the sidebar aesthetics a bit to fit, but wasn’t sure if changing those icons was possible without something more invasive than just straight up CSS.
Thanks for the Awesome plugin!

Any way to default the sidebar to closed?

This one is simple enough, that I’ve made a setting for it

Hi, this is a fantastic plugin, thanks!
I was wondering how to create a category banner like on pavillion:
It would be great if someone could point me in the right direction!
Thank you very much!

If I have multiple topic lists for different categories, can I create multiple widgets (one for a category) and show only chosen widget within a specific category?
I see the “topic lists” setting in the “Theme Settings” and wonder how can I achieve the goal?
I thought that it would be possible by hiding some blocks in css, but there is no id numbers or classes in the code of the widget - only titles.
