[AJAX] Tabbed Forum Home

[King Kovifor]

Keep 'em comin'! :D

It appears that the spoiler box has been glued shut. I can't get any more spoilers to come out! :eek: :p

[ShawneyJ]

wow nice mod indeed ;)

one thing that is annoying is viewing the "whos online list" and see members viewing "forum home", and when you click the link it brings you to tabforumhome.php page, and its a complete mess lol.

will this be fixed or?

[King Kovifor]

I'm not sure what your saying Jaycob. Maybe Bob will understand, but could you explain more?

[it-adrianus]

I don't think that Ajax version could be SEO friendly, as in home source code doesn't appear the main forum index structure.
Non-ajax is absolutely SEO friendly, but not Ajax version.

You have to change the path of the link to your actual forum home page, such as index.php, I'm afraid I can't quite remember where that was and I don't have time to check at the moment, only on for a quick sec, sorry.

[touba]

hi !

very nice MOD, installed ! can't wait v2.0

a small issue from my part : variable 'users browing forums' doesn't appears anymore through forumhome...

any idea what i did wrong ?

thx

edit: sorry, this issue is already posted... i have to wait next version...

[Digital Jedi]

I don't think this has been asked before, but it's crossed my mind a couple of times and I figure, why not. I notice I can pull pretty much any page into the AJAX version of the tabs. Say, for example, I put downloads.php as one of the tab links, it loads it just fine.

Now, the only problem with that is that since downloads.php uses templates and calls the navbar and header, you get duplicates. That's easily enough fixed by simply removing the $header and $navbar variables from the template. Only problem now, is when people visit a do= page of downloads.php, or any page that uses that same template, it loads a new page with no header and template.

So going the long way around to get to the question, is there an if conditional I could use to hide the navbar and header when loaded via AJAX only?

[touba]

Hi Jedi,

Why not doing as for forum_home by creating a new template resuming the code of download.php without the header, navbar and footer ?

That's one of the draw backs with the module system I coded for v2. It includes everything - and it requires a separate file to work. I've tried to think of a way to effectively resolve this - but I just haven't had the idea that will work.

I was considering just putting the internal downloads links to open in a separate Pop-Up window, thereby forgoing the need for a Navbar, Header and Footer. I'll probably give that a try.

Too bad you can't put some kind of identifier into the templates or file so that it knows if it's being loaded via AJAX or not.

[Digital Jedi]

That might work, I'd just have to invest the time into trying it out.

[maidos]

hope you work it out because im also interested having that tab with the downloads.php
from the mod downloadsII

[hotwheels]

Is this working on 3.7.3?

I have tried it and all i get is errors.

[Itworx4me]

Do we have an eta on when the release of 2.0 will be out? I really thought it would have been out by now because of a previous post by Bobbster. :D

[hotwheels]

Ok i found the Problem.
This Hack dont work with the "Spider Display" Hack.

that was it..........thanks

[hotwheels]

K, i have been working on this thing for a few hours now and i just can't locate the point where i need to close this space (see attached image).

I know there isn't alot of support for the ajax version right now, but i would really like to get this to look right.

[hotwheels]

Well i finally found it.........If anyone else is looking you need to remove <br style="clear: left" /> from the forumhome.......

[King Kovifor]

No, sorry. Not at this time anymore. :(

I believe there was a fix for IE a few pages ago... :)

[DeXTeR27]

First off I love this modification as it highly organizes all my larger boards. I have not had any issues till now. Added it to another board and it adds a bar underneath my forums. Not sure how to remove these. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Screenshot attached.

nvm, found it in forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost

[ArnyVee]

No, sorry. Not at this time anymore. :(

Oh...that's not a good statement :(

Hopefully not too long of a delay.

[King Kovifor]

v2.0 is done. We just need to merge our working copies (there were some parts built locally for easier testing) and finish install instructions. Both are waiting on Bob, but this is a really hard time, so give him a break. :)

[ArnyVee]

We understand....just didn't know the specifics of the hold up. Thanks for letting us know KingKovifor and we'll be waiting patiently for 2.0 :D

Woot, finally :D

Good to hear the great update, don't rush yourselves, I guess Bob is still having a crap time :(

[Magnumutz]

YAY, can't wait to test it out...
I'm being real impatient :p

[roymogg]

Hi Bobster,

You will be getting fed up with this...

I have installed the mod on the test forum no problems - adjusted paths and got the tabs up etc.

I only get the 'requesting content' message with the loading icon.

I have set up three categories 1, 5 and 7 with some forums grouped below.

OK so where's the slip

cheers

RoyMogg

Edit: The issue was quite simple I have a custom style where the mod was installed. This style is now the default and ' allow users to change styles' set to off - all is OK.

Great Hack - installed and nominated

test forum at: www.crosslight.co.uk

[ShawneyJ]

I'm not sure what your saying Jaycob. Maybe Bob will understand, but could you explain more?

thanks guys, i'm actually not sure where to look lol, as it must be a link in the php files yeah?

cheers.

[Doom Stone]

Took a quick look for you.
You can find the part you need to edit if you go to 'Plugin & Products' in your admin CP, then go to your 'plugin manager' and you are looking for 'Tabbed Forum Home WOL Unknown'.

When you click that and it brings you the edit area, you can find the part that says 'href=\"index.php?{$vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl_q']}\">Forum Home</a>";' Where index.php is going to be forumhome.php or whatever it is originally, just edit that to link to the main page ie; index.php.

CSS issue...
is this problem same with FireFox ?

[robwoelich]

Pretty sweet, got it working. Straight from the installation code, there was an unnecessary space between the tabs and the tcat... also, customization isn't very documented in regards to changing the tab colors and what not, but you can figure it out if you have the slightest idea what you're doing. :p

Nice work.

thanks m8 will look after work ;)

[Cobra-J82]

Looks like we have to copy the UPLOAD folder content to the Forum root and to the root too in order to get a 100% result.

[Cobra-J82]

Hi Bobster56
I have noticed in the demo websites you gave
"DEMO: www.bbwforums.net or www.namepros.com"
that when we click on the Tabs it doesnt Show the .gif and Request Content
and the Categories display fast as soon as we click on the tabs.

But with me and other guys here, we have to wait for the Request to go,
I Removed the gif and Request Content text from the ajaxtabs.js, it loads the content now only but it takes like 2 to 3 seconds to load the new content.
Keeping in mind I have a very small forum with very less categories compared to the demos u gave.

So Please is there a way to make the instance fast just like the demos, like the content shows immediatly as we click on the tab.

Thanks.

[Brother Malachi]

The demos are v1.0 which isn't AJAX. In 1.0 all the tab content is loaded with the page. Version 1.5 = AJAX in which tabs are loaded upon clicking on them.

[Cobra-J82]

<font color="Red">Sorry HammerHead I miss Understood you.
I think 1.0 Is What I Should Try Now.</font>

I know Man.
Im talkin about the AJAX 1.5
Thanks any way.

[Magnumutz]

1.0 is also pretty good :)

[Cobra-J82]

Okay
I Made a Nice Combination
I have the 1.01 running but with the 1.5 look/Design.
I Feeeeel Good :)

But one question
How to Make it change with MouseOver rather then click?

[Magnumutz]

I don't know, but that's a great idea :)

[Brother Malachi]

Any updates on v2.0? :P

[Magnumutz]

It's been quite a while since it's been announced v2...
We'd like at least a "We're still merging our products" message :p

[bobster65]

ya, that's my bad.. I thought I would have more time, but I've been working 15+ hr days and have just been burned out after long hrs and have not had time to wrap up the last little things from release... I found one minor glitch and want to fix that before release...

Thanks for being patient!

Is this the version that'll prevent us from having to redo the edits each time a new version of vB is released?

[King Kovifor]

Is this the version that'll prevent us from having to redo the edits each time a new version of vB is released?

Yes. v2.0 is completely database driven. You may have to update some templates but it will be an easier process.

[Megatr0n]

Sounds good.

When is it due to be released?

[SteamyLightning]

One bug I have to report is that, if a user is on the forum index, it shows as "viewing forum home" in the online list, and it redirects directly to tabforumhome.php, where it gives a white page with this error several times:

Warning: in_array() [functions-in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in [path]/includes/functions_forumlist.php(395) : eval()'d code on line 1

And then the "mark forums read" and "forum leaders" buttons.

Anyway to fix this and have the "forum home" link redirect to the index rather than the tabsforumhome file?

I'll see if this is still a problem on 2.0.0 and fix it for the release if I get time.

Do you have a release date in mind?

[King Kovifor]

No, no release date is planned.

[murekhalir]

hm.... damn... was waiting to release my site with this mod..

so would i have trouble upgrading form 1.0 to 2.0? if i were to make add this mod right now.

[hotwheels]

Hey King, how can i widen the space between the tabs? Is it a css or a template area?

I attached an image about the question.

Thanks a bunch, doug

[leylandfor]

Excellent, very much needed for my forum

[SteamyLightning]

I'll see if this is still a problem on 2.0.0 and fix it for the release if I get time.
Do you have a temporary fix? I really would like to use the modification, but having a faulty online list link is a little unfortunate.

[King Kovifor]

You'll just have to revert templates, make new template changes, and go through the addition of the tabs again using the ACP.

Do you have a temporary fix? I really would like to use the modification, but having a faulty online list link is a little unfortunate.

As of right now, no, but Bob might.

[King Kovifor]

I've fixed this for v2.0.0 which is now just waiting for Install Instructions. If you open up the WOL plugin listed being at the hook of online_location_unknown and remove the tabforumhome and replace it with the following:

" . $vbulletin->options['forumhome'] ."

This will fix your problem.

Also, I cannot reproduce the wrong data type. This may have accidently been fixed in v2.0.0 but I can't reproduce it (the direct link just has no styling).

[bobster65]

ok, KK and I just reworked one last "bug" and are now going to finish up the install Doc... it WILL be out this week (just not today)..

[Nova99]

it WILL be out this week (just not today)..
Very good news!! Been waiting for this one for long time! :D

[ArnyVee]

Woo hoo! :D

You know that I've been waiting for this one! ;)

That roughly did the trick.

I'll be awaiting for the new version. :D

[King Kovifor]

Roughly?

[SteamyLightning]

Well, it links to index, rather than just the directory itself, but that's a general vBulletin issue.

[King Kovifor]

Well, it links to index, rather than just the directory itself, but that's a general vBulletin issue.

It should be linking to the index. That's the way it was designed.

[McMendo]

Excuse me if the answer is an obvious one but, what's the difference between this produce and the AJAX Tabs Content Script v3.0 (YUI) (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=191106) product?

Also, I've noticed in the BBWForums.net example that:

banners change when I change of style
forums icons are nicely presented

are these two features also part of any of the two products?


Thank You

[King Kovifor]

Nope and AJAX Tabs Content Script v3.0 is for vBA CMPS.

[bobster65]

Thank You

AJAX Tabs Content Script is for various Tabbed Content (other than just Tabbing out the Forum Home Categories). It was originally released just for vBa CMPS, however, it can also be used on all pages as well. You do not need vBa CMPS to run it.. I have it installed on Forum Home, some additional vB pages, Non VB Pages etc..

Once TFH v2 is released, all Content Files that have been written/released for AJAX Tabs can also be used in conjunction with TFH through the new "modules" interface .. ie, Tabs for Blogs, Recent Threads, Photo Albums, GARS, vBa LINKS, etc

BBWForums was the site that I wrote the original version of the Mod for. That site is running the NON AJAX Version. He may have done some modifications to it since then, but the Banners and Forum ICONS have nothing to do with this modification. They are stand alone mods.

[murekhalir]

this is all going to be very cool!

[MrDiep]

In 3.7.4 there are some changes in templates so... can you help me how to work with this?

Version 2.0 should be out any day now...wait and install it, then customize.

[it-adrianus]

This is a great MOD.
But please remember that section links in ajax version can't be indexed by search engines, it's absolutely not SEF.

You can loose position in SERP if you use it

[Digital Jedi]

Well now I wouldn't say that.

Yes. Its been tested more than once is completely search engine unobtrusive. If you need to make yourself comfortable, simple create a child style and make the child style tabbed and the parent style the default..

FYI, the WOL plugin does not work...still shows all those strange characters when people are viewing for the forums in the different tabs.

[Brother Malachi]

I'm starting to lose hope :(

[Morsolo]

I'm starting to lose hope :(

I know, it's just becoming ridiculous...

I'm sure there's plenty of good reasons why the mod is late, but it just annoys me how people keep saying "It's just around the corner" or "Just finishing up" and then nothing happens for a month.

Don't make promises that you aren't going to keep, or that you doubt will be successful.

[Doom Stone]

Honestly don't believe anyone has any right to complain, it's not as though any of us are paying for this modification. It's frustrating, yes, but all we can do is wait and until we have the 2.0 version, simply use one of the other two options available.

@Xtremeoff-road:
The WOL plugin is working fine for me, not sure what the issue would be if it isn't working for you though.

[murekhalir]

maybe will have to just install 1.0..

but yeah we just have to wait it out =X

Free modification, made for free by non-Vb staff in their free time. You have no rhyme or reason to be annoyed. You've invested nothing into it's development, even if you donated, well, that's why it's called a donation; you expect nothing in return. You have no idea if they're not going to be able to finish or be able to finish. You also have no idea what more important things have come up in the developers lives. This stuff is when you get around to it kind of stuff and comes second to everything else in their lives, as it should.

I don't care about the mod itself, it's late for whatever reason and I don't care.

It's just that people keep saying that it's done and it'll be out by tonight or tomorrow, but it never is.
Just do the Blizzard thing and say "It'll be out when it's out".

[Magnumutz]

You mean D3 Marsolo? :D
It's been announced for several years now... and it's still under heavy development :D

[powerful_rogue]

Great news! Looks like ive come looking for this type of mod at the right time!

[SteamyLightning]

Another bug report:

The tabbed forums seem to get rid of user view count for forums.

Instead of saying "Main Forum (1 Viewing)," it now only says "Main Forum."

It's not essential, but it's definitely something to look into fixing.

[hellerooo]

I've just tried adding this mod but I can't get it to work....please can anyone help?

I'm quite new to all this but have managed to install a few different mods before and done ok with them, just this one is too hard for me :erm:

If someone can install for me i'd be happy to pay :)

Please reply/pm me if you are able to help, thanks.

No, its not "people" its me. I've said more than once that it is done (which the BETA version is) and that I'm writing install instructions for it and I have said twice now that it would be posted "this week". Unfortunately, things have come up that have prevented me from doing so and I am not going to release something without solid instructions as I don't have the time to answer everyone's questions, so I am making damn sure that the instructions cover everything for every level of member possible. Doing so takes time, but you are right, I should have never said anything.

It will be out when its out.. in the mean time... KK will post some screens and maybe some additional info on it..

I am out again for a few days as I have deadlines with clients to meet. KK or Bree can answer any questions in my absence.

Its easier & faster

You and KK, but I didn't want to direct it at one of you :)

That's fine, as I said I'm sure there was a reason and there we have it.
It just annoys me when people break their word (for whatever reason) - because I've been betrayed/backstabbed a fair bit in life...

(Off-Topic: Gratz on hitting 1.1k posts in the thread)

See, we weren't lying!!!!! LOL. The only big issue is the PT module hasn't been finished. We plan on rolling that one out with beta 2 due to the fact that I completely screwed it over. :) It will be ready. And we should announce our public bug tracker soon. Me and Bree have some work to do before it's opened. :)

[SteamyLightning]

Another bug report:

The tabbed forums seem to get rid of user view count for forums.

Instead of saying "Main Forum (1 Viewing)," it now only says "Main Forum."

It's not essential, but it's definitely something to look into fixing.
Can anyone fix this little bug?

[King Kovifor]

Can anyone fix this little bug?

I believe this is fixed in 2.0

[murekhalir]

Hey bobster and KK,

I know exactly WHY people are getting pissy.

They just love your guy's mod a lot, and from the screenshot, IT IS DEFINETLY A VERY VERY GOOD MOD.

I got mad at times because it was announced about a month or two ago that 2.0 was done and i really want this mod badly like other people on my site xD.

but i thought about it - its all up to you guys, we all have lives.

thanks more making such a cool mod ^_^

[ArnyVee]

From those screenshots...that looks beautiful KK!

I can't wait to get my hands on it and start doing some work on my site :D

Thank you for the update and we'll hope to hear from you soon! ;)

[SemperFideles]

Thanks for the hard work guys. I've been waiting for this Mod for some time. It will be huge when it's released.

[SteamyLightning]

Great news if the bug is fixed.

I'll be awaiting the release. Keep up the good work, guys.

[fox3nova]

Could it change style and banner when push each tab with 2.0 ?

[King Kovifor]

Could it change style and banner when push each tab with 2.0 ?

Please explain.

[Morsolo]

Please explain.

I think he means "Can you make it so the forum style will change depending on which TAB you are viewing"

I could make use of that too come to think of it :)
Feature for 2.1 (or 3.0) perhaps? ;)

[gamerfu]

Will the next release 2.0 have less edits? Will 2.0 be a [AJAX] version? :confused:

I am looking forward to the 2.0 modification. No rush! :cool:

[6piston]

anyone found the way to re-include "number of users browsing this forum" for each forum when using the Ajax Tabbed Forumhome?

Any help will be appreciated

[doc1975]

I'm having an issue with the recent blogs module, it pulls the blogs and lists/displays them fine in the tabbed section, but when i click on the link, it's broken because it lists the link as:

www.sitename.com/forum/blog.php..... it should read:
www.sitename.com/fourmS/blog.php... with an 's' on forums...

can you point me in the right direction to fix this, thanks.

Looking forward to the V2 release! I really struggled with the original version!

No I dont, I was commenting on the posted pics by the mod.

[heXagon]

I wonder how I can fix the issue, that if there is no Javascript enabled (e.g. NoScript in use), how there can the forums be shown, without the actual tabbing. Any ideas? Or is it solved already? Using 1.5 AJAX'ed version.

I've done this by loading the forums the regular way, along with the ajax tabbed version, wrapping each in a separate div with the ajax by default being set to hidden, and then using javascript to change the ajax's div to visible and the regular version to be hidden. If this isn't fixed in v2.0 then I could see about posting instructions...

King,

I have tried to contact you via PM for service for editing my ajax tabs content and also help with customizing the new ajax forumns for my site! Could you please PM me when you get a chance? Thanks

[CHIPIT]

OK, to get the forums to display without javascript...

1) Open your modified FORUMHOME template

2) Find <!-- Tabbed Forum Home --> and below it put <div id="show" style="display:none">3) Find <!-- /Tabbed Forum Home --> and above it put </div>4) Find <!-- /main --> and above it put
<div id="hide">
$forumbits
$forumhome_markread_script
</div>5) Below <!-- /main --> put
<script type="text/javascript">
function showelement(element) {
if (document.getElementById) {
document.getElementById(element).style.display = 'block';
}
else {
if (document.layers) {
document.element.display = 'block';
}
else {
document.all.element.style.display = 'block';
}
}
}
function hideelement(element) {
if (document.getElementById) {
document.getElementById(element).style.display = 'none';
}
else {
if (document.layers) {
document.element.display = 'none';
}
else {
document.all.element.style.display = 'none';
}
}
}

showelement('show');
hideelement('hide');
</script>6) Go to ACP > Styles and Templates > Template Manager > Edit Templates > forumhome > forumhome_level1_nopost and change the conditional to:
<if condition="(THIS_SCRIPT == 'tabforumhome' AND in_array($forum['forumid'], $GLOBALS[tabcats])) OR THIS_SCRIPT == 'forumdisplay' OR THIS_SCRIPT == 'index'">This is for the AJAX 1.5 version, though it can be changed to work with v1.0.1. If it doesn't work then double check you did everything right. This is unsupported. Please note doing this will load your forums the regular way along side the ajax version, even if you have javascript enabled, but the regular display will be hidden with javascript.

Fixed, sorry. Seems to work with editing forumhome_level1_nopost only, however if you still encounter any trouble apply step 6 to forumhome_level1_post too.

[SteamyLightning]

The fix didn't seem to work for me. It messes up the display for members with javascript enabled.

Hmm, what browser and a screenshot if possible?

It will be either tonight or tomorrow. The install instructions are done, I'm packaging the file now so that I can do a test installation on our live support forum and bug tracking site for this and our other projects. Once a test install goes good, I will modify the instructions to be a .txt file (or just use my post on the live site for now) and package it up to send to bobster so that he can upload and do the appropriate updates to this thread. :)

Tonight will depend on whether or not Bob is able to steal a few minutes to devote to update this. :)

[bobster65]

That's total BS man... advertising here just to get members over to your site... despicable...

No, it is NOT BS and it is not advertising to get people to the site. I could give a crap less if anyone goes there. It is a support site geared towards Beta Testing Mods with PT (Project Tools) for bug tracking (since PT is not an option here at vborg). There is nothing BS about it. If this site allowed members to use Project Tools for beta releases, I'd gladly do that instead, but that isn't going to be happening anytime soon so we came up with our own plan for beta releases, beta testing and bug tracking....

[King Kovifor]

That's total BS man... advertising here just to get members over to your site... despicable...

The site has PT, usergroup permissions and allows us to control how many members and who gets beta products. This provides a better way for us to manage the beta process.

I think it's smart to rework the bugs out before re-releasing 2.0. There were already WAY too many folks complaining about the issues and rather not rush it and do it right.

KK/Bob, if we are to install 1.5, is it a difficult process to update to 2.0 later? (I couldn't remember what the 'upgrade' instructions detailed, so I just wanted to be clear before installing 1.5)

Or, do you anticipate 2.0 being re-released within the next month?

I've already started to talk up the tabbed forum home (as I've also added the vBadvanced tabbed module (Thanks Bob! :) ) and so they are getting anxious to see it. I can delay them, but just wanted an educated guess so that I can give them a timeframe that we're shooting for to have this 'feature'/'upgrade' on our site.

Thanks for the work you've done guys! It seems that folks here on vB.org sometimes fail to realize that these mods are done for the good of the community and offered FREE as opposed to other scripts out there that have communities which charge an arm and a leg for modifications.

Yeah that's what I had:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.yoursite.com/forums/clientscript/tabs/ajaxtabs.js"> </script>
<!-- /Tabbed Forum Home Header Code -->

This fixed it (rather than using the relative paths that come in the install guide).

Edit:
Basically rather than using:

./clientscript/tabs/ajaxtabs.js

Try using:

http://www.yoursite.com/forums/clientscript/tabs/ajaxtabs.js (or whatever your forum URL is)

Not the way you have your forum organized now. What this does is modify the standard display of forumhome and group Categories under each time. What you would need to do is categorize each of your band subforums under categories like you mentioned. A-E, F-J, etc. Then place each category under it's own tab. Conversely you could make each subforum its own category and just put the categories you want under each tab (I shudder at the amount of editing that would take), but either way this would be displayed on your forum home page along with all the tabs to your other forum categories.

Any ETA on beta 2?

Could you be a little more specific? What part of Step 6 are you having trouble with?

[taffy056]

its the whole thing to be honest, I don't exactly understand the instructions in this, I got about 10 forum categories I want under this, but I am making little headway with it, after adding it looks like this on the attachment

[Digital Jedi]

Well, for step 6 anyway, break it apart:



FIND <!-- Tabbed Forum Home -->
below that look for the DIV that contains these <li> tags. I've included 3 SAMPLEs for us to work with (as listed below)
<li class="selected"><a href="tabforumhome.php?tabcat[]=1" rel="ajaxTFHcontentarea">TAB 1 NAME</a></li>
<li><a href="tabforumhome.php?tabcat[]=1&tabcat[]=2" rel="ajaxTFHcontentarea">TAB 2 NAME</a></li>
<li><a href="tabforumhome.php?tabcat[]=1&tabcat[]=2&tabcat[]=3" rel="ajaxTFHcontentarea">TAB 3 NAME</a></li>


Did you find this area yet? It should have been added back in Step 2b.


OK now, lets get Categories to display under each tab.
You will notice that each <li> has a weird looking URL "tabforumhome.php?tabcat[]=1&tabcat[]=2"
To set a category you simply assign a category ID number to a tabcat[] variable like this: tabcat[]=1

Do like it says, and add your ID number of the forums categories you want showing up under a given tab.


To have more than one category show up under a tab, just concat them like this: "tabforumhome.php?tabcat[]=1&tabcat[]=2&tabcat[]=3"
Its THAT simple.

And string them like that if you want more then one under a given tab.

Is there a way to redirect traffic that clicks on the whoisonline "Forum Home" link?

[Oyabun]

The plugin really doesn't work.
I tried to change the path in the plugin to index.php, but didn't work.
I searched the entire thread, templates and stuff like that. Does anyone have
a solution for that?

I changed the Tabbed Forum Home WOL Unknown Plugin to
if ($userinfo['activity'] == 'Viewing forum home')
{
$handled = true;
$userinfo['action'] = 'Viewing forum home';
$userinfo['where'] = "";
}

to remove the messed up links.

Folks,

You must realize that yesterday was a holiday and some people will be away for this holiday weekend. So, please be patient when you haven't received the support on this 'free' modification. Remember, these folks are putting in time and effort for no money. So, if there is a little bit of a slow response, please respect the fact that they could actually be busy with their personal lives at the moment.

Hopefully, you can get your question answered by someone else in the community who might be reading these posts, but I would still give it a day or two after the holiday weekend before giving up all hope.

I know what it's like to not have an answer to something that you've been working on, so I wish you good luck on finding your answer.

[King Kovifor]

I have a fix in 2.0.0 that works using any index file. I may be a able to give you a port by the end of the weekend.

[taffy056]

when is 2.0.0 of this hack likely to be released , I just can't get the 1.5.0 version to work in my test forum, and I don't won't to spend anymore time trying to get something to work when its likely to be updated soon?

We are currently working on a beta 3 now. Again, this is being released to only a certain group of beta testers.

[Carly]

its the whole thing to be honest, I don't exactly understand the instructions in this, I got about 10 forum categories I want under this, but I am making little headway with it, after adding it looks like this on the attachment

I got as far as you did. And I give up.

I understand step 6, but never actually got anything that resembled a tab. Just an unstyled list that linked to a completely unstyled version of my FORUMHOME or the category I linked it to.

AJAX Tab Forum Home 1.5.zip is good for seo. If you need help with your site, feel free to join http://www.highrankforum.com/

Is this a cheap plug for your site? This is the same as spam.

An unstyled list means your CSS wasn't pointing to the right directory, or your CSS file wasn't in the correct directory. And you probably did the same thing with the Javascript. If it can't find the files, its going to display the way you described.

Heh, then don't create a second link to his site by quoting him. ;)

We have released beta 3 to the beta testers with a few new features. Here is an explanation on them and a preview for non-beta testers:

Hey! We have been hard at work on Beta 3 and have some new features to show for it!

Direct Links

New in v2.0.0 Beta 3 is the ability to directly link to any tab or module. Now, when you edit or add a tab or module, you are given a new option: varname. This varname should be simple and short as the URLs will look like this:

http://www.smnlikdat.org/forum.php?varname=tabbed

That URL will take you to the tab this is defined with the varname "tabbed" (which would be the tabbed scripts tab here).

Modules have the same set up.

Note: The upgrade will create default varnames as tID for tabs and mID for modules. Then it will combine the two tables and create a single table for tabs and modules. So only tID will now correspond to the ID for tabs and modules.

Tab Positioning

With Beta 3, you can now specify a 'display order' for you tabs. The product will rearrange your tabs based on this display order. Display order combines both tabs and modules. ;)

Module Description

Any module author can release modules with a description now (Module ImpEx supports the export and import of descriptions).

ACP Improvements

The ACP has been improved to redirect you after any action in the ACP to the appropriate place. This means you no longer have to click in the left hand navigation to go back to the tabs or modules index page.

Beta testers can play with this release now, but if you aren't a beta tester, there are a few slots left open, so please PM me, Bree, of Bob to gain access.

[ArnyVee]

Wow, lookin' good Brobin! :D

Hope the testin' keeps going smooth.

[rapidphim]

Bob, can this mod work on 3.8.0 RC 2 and further 3.8.x?

[bobster65]

Bob, can this mod work on 3.8.0 RC 2 and further 3.8.x?

We've been concentrating on version 2.x which we have running on 3.8.0 RC1 .. I've not tested 1.5 on 3.8x yet and probably won't (as development on 1.5 has stopped). I've seen 1.5 running on a few 3.8x sites tho, so it should. Not a very good answer, but all of our efforts have been focused on 2.x series ..

[King Kovifor]

Wow, lookin' good Brobin! :D

Hope the testin' keeps going smooth.

I'm really starting to regret posting that analogy. LOL.

But v2 can be garunteed to work on 3.7 and 3.8 as the main test board is on 3.7.4 and sld.org is on 3.8rc1.

[bobster65]

btw, I want to announce that AWJunkies has joined the team and is working with us on v2.x

[ArnyVee]

WTG AWJunkies! :)

Let's hope that we can get the testing done quickly and we can open the new year (or at least the first month of '09 ;) ) with the v2 of the Tabbed Forum Home workin' for everyone! :D

That's part of it. What part are you having trouble with? What is it doing or not doing exactly?

[TandyServices]

Sorry It is not loading.. I see the tabs but when I click on it just says loading.. Never open up..

Mine is validating fine, but I had to change all the ampersands & to the proper ampersand commands &amp; to get it to validate. See here: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cogonline.net%2Fforums% 2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0&user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.606

Thanks!!
Now It is valid, I changed it in forum an modertors. But I forgot to change in FORUMHOME template.

KK/Bob/Anyone! :)

We haven't had an update on the "NEW" version of Tabbed Forum Home since last year, what's the deal?! (Last update on Dec 31, 2008 ;) )

Seriously though, any progress on the beta testing? Inquiring minds wanna know! :D

[bobster65]

it does work with 3.6.8 .. I'd wait for v2.x to come out tho.. it will be much better and easier to install/control ..

eee there..
i asked for 3.8 not 3.6.8 ... and i see you are the author of this mod... then why are you waiting for next release... is some1 working on next release... or is it coming sooon ?

[King Kovifor]

tafreeh,

This mod was written on 3.6.8, and I know it works with 3.7, and most likely 3.8. There are 4 of us who are working on v2 of this modification, including Bob. v2 is currently in a private beta.

[bobster65]

eee there..

ya, my bad on typing too fast.. it does work on 3.8x

I'm not waiting, I simply suggested that you wait.. it won't be long until v2 is going to be released and it is much easier to install and work with than these older versions..

There are 4 of us working on the next version(s) of this as well as 12 Beta Testers that we have testing v2 beta3 right now..

[Aeolian]

looking forward to v2 :]

What do you mean?

he means to put the full URL to the files instead of a partial url.. ie, include http:// and the dmain name with the path to the actual files..

Put the address to the files the same way the address would appear in your address bar: http://www.yoursite.com/clientscript/tabs/ajaxtabs.css for example. This is assuming you've put your CSS and JS files in the right place to begin with.

[Meverik]

Hello,

im sorry, my english is very bad.
I installed Ajax Tab Forum Home 1.5.0

In the install instructions i read this:
OK now, lets get Categories to display under each tab.

You will notice that each <li> has a weird looking URL "tabforumhome.php?tabcat[]=1&tabcat[]=2"

To set a category you simply assign a category ID number to a tabcat[] variable like this: tabcat[]=1

To have more than one category show up under a tab, just concat them like this: "tabforumhome.php?tabcat[]=1&tabcat[]=2&tabcat[]=3"

Its THAT simple.


I do that, but there no categorys or not all i write in the "code" and example
in Tab 2 are the same categorys as Tab1 :confused:,

please look at picture an my forumhome


Can someone help me?

Thanks Meverik

the [] need to be empty.. nothing goes in them you have a bunch of them with values in them.. it needs to be tabcat[]=CATID ie

so your first li would be tabcat[]=3&tabcat[]=4&tabcat[]=5&tabcat[]=24&tabcat[]=10

instead of tabcat[3]=1&tabcat[4]=2&tabcat[5]=3&tabcat[24]=4&tabcat[10]=5
