I've noticed that all the "default infusions" except the "News" have the left navigation menu load when the selected page is clicked. I added a screenshot to show what I am talking about. (Hope this is acceptable)
I'm sure there is a simple solution, but I haven't been able to locate the code to fix it.
I'd appreciate any help you can offer. I probably should have placed this in a bug forum. Also I didn't see a tag that works with this.
I'm doing this often in my themes, it looks better. I hate this PF feature because every PF site is full of useless panels. It's so ugly. If you have few panels, that's fine, but many users here have page full of panels for every stupid thing that can be easily done directly in theme.
I completely understand. I think I'll take your advice and do everything possible within the theme itself. For everything else, I will either use an "infusion" or write my own.
