Hmm which I don't see collapsing on semantic mw.  What mw version. I think you 
don't have to call the vector extension any longer in localsettings if you're 
1.22+. Vaguely remember that from somewhere.  Could cause issues.   Tom

This?    $wgVectorFeatures['collapsiblenav']['global'] = false;    Only thing 
I'm seeing is the navbar collapsing unless I'm missing something.     Tom

On my the header of the first sidebar section (usually "Navigation") will
appear and then disappear.

Sometimes (depending on several things), it will also cause the entire
sidebar to suddenly reposition itself when the page loads.

Visually, it's janky and weird and distracting.


However, other sites have a stable, non-annoying sidebar that doesn't
jitter.  Examples:

http://domotiki.eu/
http://www.baatwiki.no/wiki/B%C3%A5twiki

And here's two examples of a site afflicted with the Sidebar Fidgets
http://seqanswers.com/wiki/SEQanswers
http://semantic-mediawiki.org/

FYI: My site, and the two jittery examples above, run Semantic Mediawiki.
 I've never seen this jitter issue on a pure, non-semantic mediawiki
install, but since the issue doesn't seem related to anything "semantic",
I'm asking on this list.



I've tried about 10 different approaches, including removing from Common.js
all code that seems related to toolbar collapse/expand.

So... what are the two example sites above doing to disable a) collapsible
sidebar sections and b) preventing the first collapsible section header
from appearing/vanishing?

Many thanks.




P.S. The only thing my searching could unearth (besides the same unanswered
question) was this...

http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Project:Support_desk/add_non-collapsible_or_by_default_expanded_sidebar

...which is ineffective at preventing the first sidebar navigation section
from flashing/jittering.

P.P.S. I've confirmed that my MediaWiki:Sidebar page is formatted correctly.

P.P.P.S. Here's another description the problem:
