    I've added the code you gave me, which selects the artworks tab in the example on this page but doesn't display the content as if you'd clicked on artworks, see?

      idk, when i click artworks i see things like this:
      Screenshot 2025-03-31 at 15.47.29.png

      how am i supposed to know which rows should show and which should hide?
      its so many rows

      can you create a simpler case for me

      Screenshot 2025-03-31 at 15.52.35.png

      look this is the series button.
      in there, it has: all row ids:
      6,24,30,46,58,63,9,68,49,90,105,109,101,104,136,133,86,91,94,141,143,120,128,497

      in the data-expand attribute.
      those should get shown when you click on there.

      Screenshot 2025-03-31 at 15.53.39.png

      the artworks button has these:
      1,65,72,85,56,79,21,40,52,61,38,12,42,99,136,147,138,159,156,153,388,426,124,179,331,329,367,369,307,314,119,455,71

      these are like idk. 90 rows, i dont really have the time to go through all of these and check them out

      i think using the row expand feature here is not good.
      i think you should give your rows a class of either:
      series

      or

      artworks

      in right click- > set html class and id

      then make your javascript show and hide rows based on their class and what you clicked on

      jQuery(".artworks-button").on('click', function(){
      jQuery(".row.artworks").show();
      jQuery(".row.series").hide();
      });
      

      if you dont want to do this, please create a much simpler test case for me on a separate page with like 2 artwork rows and 2 series rows and a clear way for me to see which row is an artwork row and which is a series row

        there's no need to change which rows should be displayed or not, because I manage this myself in the homepage (which is also the footer). when here, for example, you're on an Artwork detail page, you need to be able to display the correct corresponding category in the footer as if you'd clicked on it (as on the homepage).

        in your previous code, the category selection worked but not the simulated click to display the correct category (artwork or series). As I said earlier in my messages. Is this more understandable ?

            to answer your question from the ‘anchor conflict’ topic, no, unfortunately that didn't solve the problem, which I'm still trying to resolve. I've re-applied the code you gave me here above but same thing, it displays the correct Serie/Artworks switch button corresponding to the page's cat-id, but it doesn't display the content accordingly (as if Artworks had actually been clicked).

              ok. if you could create a page where you just have like 2 or 3 rows in there. and make the bug happen in this simpler case.
              then i can try and fix it. cause this example case is too complex.

                I've made a test page with the same footer operation, let me know if this is better for you: https://benoitlefeuvre.com/test/

                thanks!

                      in this case, the switch button should be on Artworks, as the page category is data-catid=“[3]” and should display the correct content as if Artworks had been clicked.

                          ok it seems like i had a really hard time to understand what the problem was :O
                          i misunderstood you

                          basically you just need to trigger a click on one of the buttons

                          u got two buttons:

                          .artworks-button

                          and

                          .overview-button

                          and as far as i understand this would be the way to do it:

                          when you go to a page where you want overview-button to be auto-activated:

                          window.laytheme.on('newpageshown', function(){
                          if(jQuery("body").hasClass("slug-home"){
                          jQuery(".overview-button").click();
                          }
                          })
                          

                          basically when you visit the homepage, this will click the overview button using javascript:

                          but maybe u need to remove this custom js u got here:
                          57135bbc-4b67-4d79-91f0-c29f364d651b-image.png

                          this could be in conflict with that click js
                          i think u just add "selected" class

                          maybe for styling, instead use the class "expand-link-clicked" cause thats the "active" class

                          so basically with newpageshown and checking the body class you can find out which page u just landed on.
                          and then either call

                          jQuery(".overview-button").click();
                          

                          or

                          jQuery(".artworks-button").click();
                          

                          if my previous code was checking the right pages (no idea), it could for example look like

                          window.laytheme.on('newpageshown', function(){
                          	if(jQuery('body').attr('data-catid') == '[3]'){
                          		jQuery(".artworks-button").click();
                          	} else if(jQuery('body').attr('data-catid') == '[1]'){
                          		jQuery(".overview-button").click();
                          	}
                          })
                          

                          but basically this was no lay theme bug, you just needed help with your custom code

                            Thanks for your reply. You're right, it's probably not a Lay bug but rather that I need help with my code. I tested it, but unfortunately it doesn't work.
