I read a lot on the forum but couldn't find an answer, so here's a quick'n dirty but perfectly working solution:
What we're gonna do is find out from which page we have come to the forum.
If you were already on vanilla forum, then just go to index.php
If you were on another page or just openened a new browser window, goto categories.php
should you have any questions, feel free to comment the post and I'll answer ;)
here's the full code of index.php. Exchange MYURL with your url:
$referer = $HTTP_REFERER;
if (! strpos($referer, "MYURL")) {
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;url=http://MYURL/categories.php\">";
} else {
include("appg/settings.php");
include_once(sgLIBRARY."Vanilla.Discussion.class.php");
include_once(sgLIBRARY."Vanilla.Comment.class.php");
include_once(sgLIBRARY."Vanilla.Search.class.php");
include_once(sgLIBRARY."Utility.Pagelist.class.php");
include("appg/init_internal.php");

Is a http redirect/meta better than doing it like header('location: MYURL') ?
Other than that, not bad, interesting concept.
$referer = $HTTP_REFERER;You should be using the "medium" form.
$referer = $_SERVER[’HTTP_REFERRER’];Incase register_globals is off...
Also, you should be using header() redirects.
header("Location: path/to/file");
