[YUI] Tabbed Forum Home

[DjEddie]

I'll check this out.

forumhome_forumbit_level1_post
forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost

Those are the templates that do the output and I didn't make any changes to them, so I am not sure why they don't work right now (cept if their is some sorta CSS conflict that I don't see right off).

I'm about to upgrade this bobster ... is the above ^^ problem with the update or just this user .. just want to make sure before I update the mod :)

EDIT: Its a CSS conflict. Working on a TWEAK now.

thanks for replying. I am asking for a plugin or some mod by which we can add all the forum sections in the navbar. And when someone point the mouse on that than all the sub forums scroll down:)

[jack2009]

you can check my previous post in this thread

[bobster65]

Here is a QUICK Fix for the CSS conflict that cause's the Horizontal Lines to disappear..

in the skin-tfh.css

Replace lines 68 through 77 with this.. Basically remarking out the content of those two CSS elements. Don't remove the Elements, just replace them with this for now.

.yui-navset .yui-content div {
/* border:0px solid #ADCCE1; */
/* border-top-color:#ADCCE1; */
/* padding:0.0em 0.0em; */
}

.yui-navset .yui-content div div { /* kill inheritance */
/* border:0; */
/* padding:0; */
}

I still don't understand what that has to do with THIS mod? I have NO intentions of Putting the Tabs into the NAV bar if that is what you are asking.

oh okay bobster65, i was asking for the same tab as u have developed but with a scroll feature. Is it possible. means all the sub forums of a particular section (TAB) can be scroll down slightly by putting mouse pointer on the tab.

[BlackJacket]

Tagged for later. This is definitely something i need. Thanks a bunch!

[kylek]

Can anyone please tell me if the mark forum read where you double click the forum icon works with this version? Last time I used this was on a way earlier vb version and it did not work.

Thanks!!

[TeknoSounds]

When I tried to use this earlier (months ago) the mod didn't follow forum permissions for threads (i.e. special usergroups to view hidden forums), so that when I listed my hidden forums in a tab, the threads would show up for ALL users not just the ones for that usergroup. I was wondering if this has been corrected since then?
I would like to be able to have all my hidden forums (as I have several) in a single tab but the threads being visible only to the specific usergroups that are meant to see them.

This mod uses the core vb files that produce the FORUMHOME. There has been no altercation to any of the core files. The only Permissions that are extra (that are built into the mod) are the permissions to view the tab itself. The content with is all driven by the same core vb code that creates the normal forum home. There is a known issue with secondary user groups not being able to view a tab, but that isn't the issue you are having.

Can you PM me and explain your setup to me so that I can setup the same situation on one of my Dev instances and play around with it?

This in NO WAY effects Search and Archive. This uses the same core files as regular forum home, so if you set a forum to NOT display on FORUMHOME, then it will also not be able to display with this.

Hey Bobster, have you had a change to look at the problem with multiple level categories? I PM'd you my site information so you could look at the hierarchy. No worries or anything, just checking to see how that's going. =)

[DjEddie]

hi bobster ..thanks for the update :) .

after updating, and overwritting the code in the forumhome template with the new code u left .. it altered the style colors leaving a white background on the sections .. once i put the old code back it had gone


tab1 image is after the update

tab2 image is what it looked like after I put the old code back on..

Not sure if I did anything wrong but double checked the update instructions ..

Thanks

Eddie

[craiovaforum]

I don't get it. Its FASTER for your users AND it puts less strain on your server. vB doesn't use the full YUI Library and they modify their version of YUI Tabview, so no. Feel free to modify it to use what ever you want to tho. Like I said in the Upgrade doc, if you'd rather put the files on your server, then do so. If there is the same version of a specific file in the current clientscript/yui and you want to point to that instead, do it. Just make sure the versions are all compatible with each other and remain in the same order of call.

You are right sir, sorry for my harsh reply. I'll give it a shot by hosting the files locally.
But there is still a big problem that I (or maybe you, in the future updates) need to solve: without javascript we have no content. I read in previous posts that you say that this plugin is search engine unobtrusive but I really don't see how that can be true since js is required to display everything.
There should be some static content with (at least) links to the forum categories.
If you don't believe me, use the "Fetch as google bot" feature inside google webmaster tools or browse your site with javascript disabled.
I did and here's the result:

Would it be possible to implement a message something similar to:

This is exacly the same thing happend to me Bob the builder and my coders couldnt figure it out.. and it looks like your using the same forum style as me..except mines red.. let me know if you figured it out

Well cool deal. I last played around with it on 3.8. Lemme get it installed on my dev site and check it out, its possible I'm not having an issue anymore. Wouldn't want you chasing down an issue/bug that doesn't exist :) Should be able to let ya know in a couple days.

I just upgraded my test domain to the newest update. Now when I load the site the tabs and forums within refuse to load unless I allow access to something called bubbling-library.com . What is this and how do I make the tabs and forums load without having to connect to this site?

download the dispatcher-min.js and put it into the /tfh folder, then change the call to that js file in the head area of the FORUMHOME template. I did it that way so that there is less strain on your server. Works either way..

Probably just need to tweak the skin-tfh.css file to remove a container background color. If one of you could have it live on your site, I could check it out with fire bug and let you know what tweaks need to be made to the skin-tfh.css file

[DjEddie]

sent u a pm with a link bobster for firebugging

[bobster65]

OK, for those of you that are having the "WHITE" issue on the background of the container (mainly for transparent/translucent styles)

on line 63 of the skin-tfh.css

Currently this element sets a WHITE background (as that is what default vB style is like)..

.yui-navset .yui-content {
background:#ffffff;
border-top:5px solid #ADCCE1;
}


So, what you need to do is make it transparent like this.

.yui-navset .yui-content {
background:transparent;
border-top:5px solid #ADCCE1;
}

Hey Bobster anyway to make it work with Sub Forum Manager plugins?

yes please, with this mod installer, i can see subforums well, but with tabs i cant see it well :S

[misticjeff]

Hi Bob,

Great mod... not sure if this is possible but could a user permission be set so that the user could choose which tab to make his/her default?

[kylek]

If I change templates, the old forum icons remain.
Also - i can no longer double-click the forum icon to mark it as read. (and when you hover over the forum icon, it no longer says "double click to mark this forum as read). :confused:

I know you want bug reports to the other forum, but I havent had a chance to sign up for it. :cool:

Same thing, just installed and everythings great but dont have the ability to double click an icon. Also cant find link to other site to check bug reports.

Other than this, great mod, nice easy install and so easy to add tabbed sections!!

Just found what was missing and it works now. In the template edits it says forumhometab is automatically created so I didn't check it as I am using default style. While going through to see if I missed anything with the edits checked the forumhome tab again and it did not have "{vb:raw forumhome_markread_script}" added.

Added it and the double click icon to mark read shows and works.

[ps2wiz]

Of course, you can just add that text between <noscript></noscript> tags in your FORUMHOME templates.

In what formatting tags should I incase the message (inside the noscript section)?

It works fine with Valtars (Cybs) Subforum Manager.


Hi Bob,

That is something that has been kicked around a few times. Its on the white board, but isn't planned for the next few versions at the moment. Its on the radar tho.

Just installed Sub Forum Manager 4.1 and just testing it out and so far it looks to be working okay with this.

[Furcal15]

How can I get my who's online to work properly with the tabs?

If you are viewing "Who's Online" it won't say what the user is doing unless it's a feature outside of the forums. So, if they are registering it will say it. But if they are posting/creating a thread it doesn't tell me what they are doing. It just says "User 1 is viewing Forum Home" etc etc.

[karlm]

Another fine product from Bobster!

Thank you good Sir.


One small niggle if I may... I'd really like to be able to edit the public name of the 'vbulletin blogs' to something more personalized, such as 'members blogs' or similar.

Could you advise on that, please?

[roymogg]

Hi Great Mod Bobster,

Went in very easily - I saw this below and included <noscript> tags around the 'old' forum display script (rather than delete) so crawlers (who only see text) can see the standard forum layout. Also if A user has script disabled the standard layout is shown.

thanks for a great mod

Cheers

Roy


Of course, you can just add that text between <noscript></noscript> tags in your FORUMHOME templates. But what about search engines?

[karlm]

Also, I just noticed, when the vbulletin blogs tab is added, it claims the number of relpies is the same as the number of views - which is incorrect.

And while i'm on the blogs subject, I think it would be awesome to see the blog owners avatar (reduced to 50x50) in the statusicon column instead of the 'new post' icon. Perhaps you may consider that for a future revision?

The Tabs has its own whos online, but its only for when they are on Forum Home. If a member goes to create a thread or make a post, that has nothing to do with TFH, so I don't know what you are asking.

You can do that via the Admin CP... just change the name of the tab for that module. Click on Tabs, click on Manage Modules (which brings up the modules list). Then click on Edit (for the module you are dealing with.. ie, blogs). Then Change the Module Name (which is the Display name for the Tab).

Ah, nice catch... just tested that and it works like a charm. I'll probably add this to the next release as an option. Thank you!

lol.. whoooooops. I'll get that fixed (the replies vs views).

I plan on releasing a few different types of blog modules with different looks and such. These modules can be written by anyone and used within this system (just so you know).

[bobster65]

How I do I make TFH completely compatible with Who's Online so I can see who is viewing a thread.

I sent you a PM, cause I am totally lost on what you are asking. Again FORUM HOME (which TFH is part of) has nothing to do with Who's Online for THREADVIEW. Default vB Forum Home has nothing to do with Who's online and viewing a thread either.

Hey man, this plugin is PERFECT... i love it. But i have a simple problem (i think is simple to solve). I have some forums "invisibles" in the forumhome... and with this plugin, if i add a tab with thats forums that are invisibles i cant acces to it... how can i do this?

Yes, that is a problem because it uses the current functions for the regular forum home creation, so if you set a forum invisible, it will be invisible within TFH as well. One thing that I (we) are doing right now is building functions for TFH seperate from the current vB forum home functions so that you will be able to display things like hidden forums within TFH. Not sure how long it will take, but its in the works right now.

[Alucard^]

Ok, Thanks for the fast answer, i will waiting for that function.

Question, I have this installed and it works pretty good, but...

I added my Moderator forums to the first tab.
when I log in as a mod or admin, these mod forums don't show up, when I log into the admincp then go back to the forums homepage, they are now there.

When I log out of my account and view as guest, they are still there until I close IE and go back, then they are gone again, I log in and it just repeats itself.

any ideas

if i edit FORUMHOME TEMPLATE EDIT 1 forumhome changes, i cant see my header logo (the header is smaller like there is no logo specified, and the login/pass boxes are moved to the left instead of be on the right

then, if i made FORUMHOME TEMPLATE EDIT 2 changes, i cant see the forums (no tabs..no forums...nothing). its like there aren?t any forums.

if i disable Javascript Optimiser options from supercharged 1.3 mod i can see all ok...tabs and everything

I dont know why this issue it is only VIEWING THE FORUM AS A GUEST. If im logged with my user...everything works fine...

i hope to enable Javascript Optimiser option and keep using this fantastic mod!

[ps2wiz]

Must be a configuration problem with some of your other mods. I use this mod and host the .js files locally along with VB4 supercharged mod. And I have none of the problems that you described with this setup.

And yes, I was referring to the YUI files.

Sorry for the delay, its working in 4.0.3, just create a loop if you choose too many forum id's to set as default, this cause IE to crash.

Did try the same table on 4.0.2 and didnt crashed (didn't add or took any forum id to test)

So maybe some sort of limitation on ID, or maybe the forum add some wrong link, at the moment i think that could be also a issue...

If i get more info / details i let you know.

[WhightKnight]

Working great on my 4.0.3 forums. The tabs are always collapsed and I'd like to change that. I'll look through the forums and see if it is possible...haven't really looked into it yet.

[Mikelito]

Its work on 4.0.3.....but if I want change style??

[Mikelito]

Ohhhhhh we can change the style of the tabs in the file skin-tfh.css

[murekhalir]

I'm having issues - the tabs work out perfect, however they do not show until you actually click one of the tabs.

example:

wargamingtv.com/forum.php

if you could see, the forums dont actually show on the tabs until you click them, is there anyway to have them show by default?

[Rahstyles]

Bobster you find a fix for vb4.0.3 yet?

[Ninth Dimension]

I'm interested in using this addon, but it looks like there are still a few bugs with it. Because of this I'm going to wait for the next release - looking forward to that happening soon.. I hope :)

Looks like its just bugged for 4.03 =/. Can't wait to get it fixed!..

I can't find it in the coding, but seems like this modification searches for "tfh/image.png" on the forum page? I ran a diagnostic with yslow and a 404 is found for it.

just installed it and y suggest that you make the tabs remain on all forum pages not only in FORUMHOME

I'm having a problem with this. I managed to make my first tab and set it to default, but afterwards any time I try to make a new tab I get an empty box where the usual "completed, redirecting now" message appears, and then it goes back to the Add Tab page without saving any changes. This is 4.0.3

Its not a simple trick.. when you up the guest to have all forums.. then tabs for the members..

[infinityloop]

Thank you very much for this great modification!

We are currently using vb 3.8 together with an other mod for tabs.
We want to move to vb4 during the next months and this modification is just what we need.

Installation and configuration is very, very easy now and it works quite good!

The only problem I have atm, is that as soon as i go inside one of the subforums, the tabs dissapear.
In other words, Tabs are only displayed at the root level of the forum.
I guess that this can be change by editing the template (using the default vb style on the textenviroment atm).

Or did I miss a templatechange in the discription? :)

[demonfatal]

Once the mod is installed if we need to expand/collapse the forum section on the forumhome we get an error: the blank page without style...
Please who can check and solve this please??

[XLCR GODFATHER]

I apologize If this has been answered and I missed it.

I was considering this mod but have 1 question
Will this work with the sub forum manager found here==> https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=229148 ?

[Akhi]

Didn't use the previous version because of all the steps involved. Glad you finally set up an easy to use version that can be managed from Admin CP. Thanks a lot Bob!

[karlm]

Due to some d/b issues I was encountering, I uninstalled all my plugins - including this one. However, now that my d/b issues are resolved, I went to reinstall this. Upon trying to install, it claims the tables already exist as if it hadn't been uninstalled.

What can i do to get this installed again, please?
Bobster, any chance you could look into helping with this when you get a moment, please? I've been using this hack for a long time - but am currently unable to use it due to the above errors (tables already exist).

[Wilfred1]

I would really like to use this mod but after reading every post to date it seems the following...
1. As of today's date it doesn't work with v4.0.3
2. It is not SEO friendly unless you apply this (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2016108&postcount=293) change

Are these true???

Also if these get fixed can this mod be applied in a situation where you have the tabs say after forum#10 and forums 11-15 are on one tab, forums 16 to 40 on the 2nd tab etc?

Thanks

[adblaze]

I'm hoping someone can clarify this point. Where would I add the <noscript> tags exactly?


Hi Great Mod Bobster,

Went in very easily - I saw this below and included <noscript> tags around the 'old' forum display script (rather than delete) so crawlers (who only see text) can see the standard forum layout. Also if A user has script disabled the standard layout is shown.

thanks for a great mod

Cheers

Roy

[adblaze]

Nevermind. I got it. Just re-add the original code removed from the FORUMHOME template between the <noscript></noscript> tags.

[adblaze]

This actually will affect SEO from what I see. Here is a link to my Google cache.

Well then you code something. It is not the job of modification designers to make their mods compatible with every single thing on the internet. They can't hold your hand for you.

Their job is to add further functionality to the site and that is what this mod has done.

Does this modification work properly for 4.0.4? It runs perfect for 4.0.3 for me, but I am just curious before I upgrade.

Thanks in advance.

[Xceptional]

I have this working on 4.0.4 without much problems.

To solve the SEO issue I modified the 2nd template edit to

<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, usergroupid1,usergroupid2)">
- New forum template edit 2 code -
<vb:else />
- Old forum template edit 2 code -
</vb:if>

and excluded "Non Registered" members from the usergroupid list.

One problem I'm having is the All Forums module is showing all my forums to everyone, including the forums that aren't suppose to be visible to normal users (Do not have viewing permissions). How can I fix this? This is a serious privacy problem for me.

Im on 4.04 and followed all the instructions. Im also using vbseo 3.5.1 if that makes a difference.

Anyways after doing the full setup of the plugin, all my categories/forums have now disappeared.

Any idea why?

[ArchAngelz]

Has the collapse problem been solved yet? Installing on 4.03 seems to have the collapse button issue; clicking on the collapse button results in the board being shown in text only form.

Also I'm having some trouble understanding the whole SEO breaking bit; could someone help explain it again and how it can be tested/fixed?

I was just about to ask this, I would LOVE this for the CMS.

[Lionel]

As there was no point for me to use the collapse since all categories are tabs, I created a plugin at forumhome_start to disable the collapse button, and I simply put in it

$show['collapsable_forums'] = true;Suggestion: It would be nice to add the tab colors class in stylevar

[Lionel]

Actually it was not necessary to add the stylevar. I simply removed the css block in the file and added this in forumhome head

<style type="text/css">
.yui-navset .yui-nav .selected a,
.yui-navset .yui-nav a:focus,
.yui-navset .yui-nav a:hover {
background:{vb:stylevar forumhead_background};
color:{vb:stylevar forumhead_color};
</style>

[Lionel]

Hi Bobster, I thought I'd let you know. You have a major bug in there. In plugin forumhome_complete you are checking for $vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] instead of $vbulletin->userinfo['membergroupids']

so later on in the class_yui.php the explode(",", $tab['limitTo']) is checking for only the primary group, causing the ones with secondary usergroups not to view the tab.

I fixed my copy, but in my opinion this mod is way too nice for me to remain silent.

My solution is not the final solution. It works for me as I only have one secondary usergroup, the customer group.

A permanent solution would be to send just the $vbulletin->userinfo array and to replace the call with

if (is_member_of($this->usergroup, $tab['limitTo']))

[GamerPerfection]

Does this work on 4.0.5?

Is there still a "slowness" issue when clicking the tabs and the forums appearing?

Has the Developer abandoned this project like many others do?

This works perfectly fine on 4.0.5. I installed it yesterday. You can check it by clicking on my signature. Really looks good.

I was wondering, would be it possible to have different domains show different tabs?

For example, www.domain1.com and www.domain2.com

You have a tab called domain1 and a tab called domain2. When you go to domain2.com it shows tab domain2 by default and www.domain1.com shows the domain1 tab.

Is this possible?

[sross]

This mod could be amazing but it's not quite there. The tab navigation needs to be showing at all times, every parent, child, thread etc it should just be there like the vB navbar is. Once it exists everywhere, the tabs also need to work depending on where you are in the forums.

[Popa Andrei]

Chris,

First, take notice of the part that reads, "you'll have to apply these template edits to each style you have."

I say that because I didn't pay enough attention at first to this and then when I installed the mod on my default style I couldn't figure out why I had some issues with my custom styles. (Which I still am, but that's a seperate issue.)

What you'll need to do is this:

In whatever style you want to install this mod on:

1. Under Styles and Templates in the ACP (admin control panel)
- Click on Style Manager
- For the style you want to install the mod on, to the far right you'll see a drop down box. Click on that and select "Edit Templates"
- On the left hand side you'll see all kinds of templates and template categories. You'll want to locate the category labeled, "Forum Home Templates >>"
- Double-click on that.
- Then you'll be looking for each of the actual templates that the instructions refer to.

2. In the folder for this mod that includes all the files, open up the document that is labeled "Template Edits."
- You'll see each template you'll need to edit in here.
- For example:
=========================
FORUMHOME TEMPLATE EDIT 1
=========================

That means you'll need to look under the template, FORUMHOME and follow his instructions precisely. Don't forget to click on "save" at the bottom of the page after you make the necessary changes. Then refresh your forum home page to see the effects from your edits.

If all else fails, I'll be working on solving a seperate problem I'm having with this mod and a particular style today, so you may catch me in front of the computer. My AIM is "pjskiboy" or Gtalk is "pjskiboy". I'll help you out if you catch me online. Just instant message me. (I'm having a soft heart because I remember when I first started messing with this stuff and I was completely lost. Now I'm only slightly lost at times, lol.)

[PJSkiboy]

Now, for my particular issue with this mod. And it appears to be relegated to the Blackened (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=245708) custom style. I posted the following post in the thread for that style as well.


OK, i figured out the issue with the mgc_chatbox mod not displaying the images in the chatbox itself. I didn't read carefully enough in regards to the part of you having to copy the images folder over to the styles folder for EACH style you use. Derrrrrr....... So I got that squared away.

I'm still left with this:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2010/09/38.png

It's almost like padding somewhere in between the forum categories, but no idea where to look in the templates to be able to at least change the background color. Could I possibly change the background color of the forums to match and solve this problem? (hopefully just answered my own question.....)

update

Just tried looking through the Stylevars, but I don't see anything at first.

Also, when I inspect the page source for that area that I have circled, it is include in the <div class="yui-dispatchable"> selection.

Storm,

I'm in the same boat.

Right now I've got the tab mod installed on my light theme and not on my dark theme because when you change the hex code in the css file for the mod, it changes that background color in between the categories for ALL styles you have that mod installed on.

Pretty sure we'd have to edit the mod to where it called a different .css file for each style.

If I could manage some free time in the next week, I'll tinker with it some, but no promises. I'm not much of a coder.

[Lionel]

.yui-navset .yui-nav .selected a,
.yui-navset .yui-nav a:focus,
.yui-navset .yui-nav a:hover
.yui-navset .yui-content

what did you do to fix this as i am having hte same issue


fixing this is very simple. Edit the template Create Tabs at forumhome_complete and replace the second line with

$yui = new vB_YUI($vbulletin, $vbulletin->userinfo, 'tfh');

and in class_yui.php

replace the line below (I don't remember what the original code was)

$tab['limitTo'] = explode(",", $tab['limitTo']);

with:

if (is_member_of($this->usergroup, $tab['limitTo']))

so the block becomes

if($verify_usergroup)
{
if($tab['limitTo'] == 'all')
{
$this->code .= "YAHOO.plugin.Dispatcher.delegate(new YAHOO.widget.Tab({label: '" . mysql_escape_string($tab['title']) . "', " . $tab['contentT'] . ": '" . $tab['content'] . "', active: " . $tab['active'] .", cacheData: " . $tab['cacheData'] ."}), " . $this->name . ");";
}
else
{
$tab['limitTo'] = explode(",", $tab['limitTo']);
if (is_member_of($this->usergroup, $tab['limitTo']))
{
$this->code .= "YAHOO.plugin.Dispatcher.delegate(new YAHOO.widget.Tab({label: '" . mysql_escape_string($tab['title']) . "', " . $tab['contentT'] . ": '" . $tab['content'] . "', active: " . $tab['active'] .", cacheData: " . $tab['cacheData'] ."}), " . $this->name . ");";
}
}
}

I manage to change that blue color to red color but still figuring out for the white spacing...

[sputera]

Thank god..................... after few cup of tea, I managed to settle down my TAB look and feel.

Here's the result:

http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/7255/tabh.png

Ok, here's the step i did:

1] I follow the instruction as post #423 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=2103722&postcount=423). This will ensure that the tab will use my template style.
<style type="text/css">
.yui-navset .yui-nav .selected a,
.yui-navset .yui-nav a:focus,
.yui-navset .yui-nav a:hover {
background:{vb:stylevar forumhead_background};
color:{vb:stylevar forumhead_color};
font-weight:bold;
}
.yui-navset .yui-content {
background:#ffffff;
border-top:5px solid #384b6b;
}
</style>

2] For the white space, I change the background color:
<style type="text/css">
.yui-navset .yui-nav .selected a,
.yui-navset .yui-nav a:focus,
.yui-navset .yui-nav a:hover {
background:{vb:stylevar forumhead_background};
color:{vb:stylevar forumhead_color};
font-weight:bold;
}
.yui-navset .yui-content {
background:#ffffff; <------ I change the color to almost black.
border-top:5px solid #384b6b;
}
</style>

2] Then, I edit the border, color, font style, etc at this file >>> skin-tfh.css


You can check my forum at: http://www.scramriders.com/forum. It's still under configuration......

Hope this help...

I was wondering if anybody had gone through this guide to make the browser's back button bring you back to your last active tab?

Hi,
to answer the question myself:
no, it will not remember the tab. Meanwhile I found out that ajax-history can be done. Here`s an example with jquery tabs:
http://flowplayer.org/tools/demos/tabs/ajax-history.html
select a tab, click on one of the links in the right nav, click the browsers back button and your tab will still be selected. This is done with the jquery history plugin:
http://plugins.jquery.com/project/history
Something similar exists for the yui framework:
http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/history/
They even have an example on how to use this with a tab navigation:
http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/examples/history/history-tabview.html

I`ve only very few experience with Ajax so I`d be glad if this could be implemented.

thanks - all the best,
Sacha

ah crap.. I KNEW that there was something else I need to fix! gah! I'll try and figure out a solution for that tomorrow if I have time.

Did you test it in IE to see if it fixed the IE issues that you were having? Everything seemed to work fine for me in IE.

Any Solution or fix here? In Chrome it show me the forum without a style.

Due to some d/b issues I was encountering, I uninstalled all my plugins - including this one. However, now that my d/b issues are resolved, I went to reinstall this. Upon trying to install, it claims the tables already exist as if it hadn't been uninstalled.

What can i do to get this installed again, please?
Bobster, any chance you could look into helping with this when you get a moment, please? I've been using this hack for a long time - but am currently unable to use it due to the above errors (tables already exist).

Just bumping my own support request...

[gigawiz]

[pedroenf]

Does anyone knows how to center tabs?

[Alucard^]

Does anyone knows how to use a link to go to an specific tab? For example i have my page and i want to add a button that link to the forum but not in the default tab, in an specific tab... how can i do that?

Thanks and sry for my english.

EDIT: Problem solved, if someone have the same question: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1965257&postcount=94

[Avrojet]

Great Find!

If you link to a tab using that method you can use your browser's back button to take you back to that tab instead of the default tab.

Request:
Users select their own default tab

[myco]

Works great in 4.08 thank you.

[Popa Andrei]

it will work greater if someone will fix the current bugs ;)

[biocyberman]

Hi Bobster,
I have been using the previous version of your mod for my vB3 site and it has been working great with some of my modifications to forumdisplay and thead. I have recently upgrade to vB4 and installed version 4.0.0 beta 2. What I want to do is: To make the tab menu always appear on top so users can jump to tab contents wherever they are.
Looks like it is not easily done here. Could you give me some pointers for this?
Marked installed.

Thanks

[Popa Andrei]

lion how can we change the color of the nonselected tabs to be apart for each theme like the selected one :D

[huuquynh]

I don't know why after install and add tab. There are no tabs display in forum home. I can not find where to setting more...???

Oh, I don't edit template yet... sorry

[eues]

I have installed this fine. However on the forumhome when you hover over a username the popup bubble comes up automatically! I want it to return so it only appears when you click a username.

Anybody know the fix? ty

[typecast]

I love this mod but when you collapse a forum everything gets trashed.

I've seen several folks asking for this, is there a way to allow a user to select a default tab?

If i am not wrong you have to change the background color here:

.yui-navset .yui-nav .selected a,
.yui-navset .yui-nav a:focus,
.yui-navset .yui-nav a:hover {
background:#ADCCE1 ;
color:#4E4E4E;
}

in skin-tfh.css

I can't figure in my forum right now, sry.

[justino]

hi guys.
have walked here turns to see if I could, but could not.
It was put images in tabs. Anyone know how I do it?

Thanks :up:

[rob01]

is it possible to use a tab for showing all the forum section threads (with the page numbers also) instead of showing the forum sections

not all forums post, just from a specific section

[justino]

VB4 saw a forum with images in tabs, as I walked around to get in my forum and I am not sure how ..

[TheInsaneManiac]

Feature Requests:
Disable AJAX - It takes awhile to load forums, I want it to be instant, plus ajax is server intensive
Tab Style - When a member clicks a tab I want it to change the whole forum layout.

[preemz10314]

If you are asking how to use sub categories on this mod, then you are completley missing the point of this mod. The point of this mod is to seperate your forums up, SO, basically eleminated the need for sub categories because it's obivous that the creator assumes you would have figured it out, and use a tab for the forum, then just add the sections to that tab...

[Mrquarter2]

Any chance it can be upgraded for 4.1?

[RK KINGKONG]

YES VB 4.1 P2 no longer works but it was an awesome mode while it was there thats for sure .. please update thanks

[RK KINGKONG]

THIS MOD is officially working for 4.1 patch 2 as of right now , i got it working , no special edits ...thank you for a great mod . so much easier to navigate through forums YES VB 4.1 P2 no longer works but it was an awesome mode while it was there thats for sure .. please update thanks

[merk_aus]

Bobster65,
Is there any way to have this installed however if you have an announcement category and an off topic category they always appear (like you helped me set up on vb3.x)

So it looks a little like:
Announcement Category
FORUM TABS - Tab 1, Tab 2 etc
Off Topic Category

So no matter which tab they select the announcement and off topic categories always show, one above and one below the selectable tabs.

Is it also possible to have it where they select a tab and instead of it displaying some forums it's actually information so for example:
Have a tab for COMMUNITY FEATURES
and when they click on them it is just an information page that displays that outlines all of the forum features.

Please pm me if this can be done (and to discuss some sort of payment/donation if required)

[siriuxs]

Hi, I want create a tab with only sub-forum... why is not possible? :(

[merk_aus]

Hi, I want create a tab with only sub-forum... why is not possible? :(

It can only be done with categories not subforums why? Because that is the way the coder wanted it.

[siriuxs]

There is a mod for this? I need to create a tab with only specific sub-forum...

Excuse me for my bad english...

[siriuxs]

Please help me... I want pay for this modification...

[ALBCODERS]

add your subforums IDs on the plugin options and is OK no?

[siriuxs]

add your subforums IDs on the plugin options and is OK no?

If I add a subforum ID, the subforum isn't visualized in the tab... :(

[Athena1984]

It works for 4.1 PL2. I have it installed and I love it!

[Gursimran]

awesome mod, bookmarked.

[combs]

Is there anyway to make one of the tabs for just new posts? Kind of steal the feed it uses for vBForum_Post in the what's new page, or the getdaily in the dailys posts page?

If so i'd love to figure out out, anybody with an answer i'd really appreciate it!!

[samanushuke]

Instaled
thank you very much

[horussjr]

how can i make the tabs color to be taken from the style. so 3 styles dont have the same colors, just pick the color from the specific style

[TheNite]

wow great product does this work with any version of vb4?

[horussjr]

yes it works

[RK KINGKONG]

anyone confirm this working on 4.1.1 yet , let me know please . thank you

[JVCode]

anyone confirm this working on 4.1.1 yet , let me know please . thank you

Works like a charm on 4.1.1

[merk_aus]

[ahmedipa]

I will use it nearly thank you very much

[SEW810]

Installed and working on vbulletin 4.1.1 but when you have configured your tabs and for any reason you need to rename a sub forum, the tabs don't update the changes, old name is still shown.

Any fix for this issue?
Thnx


Regards

[horussjr]

had you give a forced refresh like CTRL+F5?

[SEW810]

Yeap, I've tried that but any changes happend :(

[horussjr]

go to maintenance and update counters (or sth like this). there must be an options (first i think) to rebuild forums and posts. give it a try

[RK KINGKONG]

heres a bug I found on 4.1.1 while youre in the forum home main page if you hit the collapse button on the the right side my forums gets scrambled and turns it into a big white screen there are 2 attached files to describe the issue . though not many ppl use the collapse button its still a bug right ? but yes other than that it does work on 4.1.1 Works like a charm on 4.1.1

[washingtonboise]

Looking for samples that demonstrate the high usability value of this mod. Time to brag, lemme see your URLs.

same for me

[combs]

It does that with 4.0.8 for me as well so I don't think it's a 4.1 thing, members have complained in the past, I have no idea how to fix that.

[RK KINGKONG]

basically what i did to avoid ppl bothering me about the bug was i had a friend go into my TP and edit it so that the collapse button isnt there to click . problem solved

[TheInsaneManiac]

This doesn't work in google chrome.

This doesn't work in google chrome.

Works fine for me in Chrome .. what doesn't "work" ?
