Playlists in sidebar won't stay collapsed

[beckfield 173]

Version 4.9.0.27 beta

Web UI

 At the bottom of the sidebar (when the sidebar is pinned), there are permanent items for Playlists and Collections.  These are collapsible.  I have no issue with them being there, but I have noticed that the Playlists item is always expanded when the screen is refreshed, or you go to Settings and then back to Home.  The Collections item is always collapsed when the page is refreshed.

Ideally, I think the best outcome would be for these items to remember their collapsed/uncollapsed state, but failing that, I wish the Playlists item would default to collapsed, like the Collections item does.

I can reproduce this issue on 4.8.8.0

That goes back for several years. There's a hack in the attached links in below topic if you want to pursue that option.

More options to control this are possible for future updates. Thanks.

Thanks.  I tried that, but it also leaves the "My Media" section collapsed by default.  I didn't even realize "My Media" was a collapsible item, and I'm quite used to having it expanded.

For now, I'll live with having Playlists expanded.
