Hello,

In pursuit of an ever simpler design (especially for new users), I was wondering if it wouldn’t be possible to combine the elements a bit, specifically the collapsible headers.

[I have in mind here a forum for people quite experienced with ICT]

We now have collapsible “Categories”, which includes a selection of categories and the item “All categories”.

Since the sidebar is not that full, I don’t really see the need to collapse it.

Instead, I’d like to use the header “Categories” as a link to `/categories` and remove the item “All categories”.

The same goes for tags.

Any idea if this is possible / easy / how it could be done?

Thank you
