Installed this on my test 4.0.6 publishing suite and it worked perfectly the first time.

I sincerely hope this is updated as this is one of the most useful mods out there. Great design.

how can we change the colors of the tab?

Isn't this question answered like 5 posts before your question?

how did you do it?

wath could cause this white space bettwen the tabs and forums?
using vbulletin 4.0.6

Mine is doing the same thing. Running 4.0.6 as well.

Could somebody help me? (I am new to this stuff)
I am installing this great mod and I am not sure what to do next...
I am on step 3:
Could somebody explain what I have to edit? (Step-by-step please)

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.)

Now, for my particular issue with this mod. And it appears to be relegated to the Blackened custom style. I posted the following post in the thread for that style as well.

so is the 4.0.6 creating the stylevar automatic or how do i modifi it?

I haven't figured it out yet myself.

so is there anyone that could help us?

The guy that created the style actually looked at that issue the other day and he was able to provide a solution. While it corrects that white space for that particular style, it will mess up any other styles you have selectable by your forum members.

If you are interested, PM me and I'll give you the info he gave me.

Hello ,great mod, Thank you.

But I think its necessary to resolve this problem with collapse button. For example I need to make tabs with different forums and different categories each forum.

Collapse button is very important.

Regards.

how can y make the .css to be a stylevar?

I have been fighting this thing, double and triple checking my install and template edits. I started disabling mods and was walking all around my problem. I decided to start reading every single post to find a possible solution and I finally find you at post #325!!!

Thank you, it works now and at least I know I'm not crazy... Disabled optimizer on test board and it finally starts working. Now on to the .css color issue... WHEW!:up:

Is it possible to get the AJAX content instantly loaded, by caching the data every X minutes?

The loading of the tabbed content takes a lot of time. I rather have some delay in showing the last posts, than having to wait on the tabbed content to load, at every click.

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

same with this....is there a solution?

Hello, I ask again for a solution for the problem with collapse button.

Thank you very much

I would be interested in that info, if you wouldn't mind.

PM sent to you with the instructions.

can u tell me how to make a diferent style var for a light theme?
I have a light theme and a dark one.

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.

edit the tabview.css or skin-tfh.css to remove those declarations:

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

and then in FORUMHOME template put this in your head

go there and switch style to see result

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

It works but can you make the same thing like in the tabs to this area to?

PS this fix should be integrated in the mod.

Excellent ! Thank you for sharing :)
Installed and perfectly works!

Sorry, but what happens with de collapse button, nobody wants to give a solution?

if the autor of the plugin would give a little bit interest in the mod....

this should be added to the plugin

As per screenshot above, I want to remove the "dark blue" line and combine my tab with the forum title..... I believe that it is just a spacing issue..... but, may I know where to edit?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update:

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

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

Here's the result:

Ok, here's the step i did:

1] I follow the instruction as post #423. This will ensure that the tab will use my template style.
2] For the white space, I change the background color:
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...

this is not more useable the default style is good & feel fine for visitors

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?

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

Just bumping my own support request...
