I would change any of the static width values in both the template divs and CSS to 100% ..

Awesome! Thank you! It worked. I changed the width in the block (template) file from 600px to 100%, and I left the height the same. Works great now! :up:

Sweet :cool:

btw, if you like that CSS version but want the tabs on the top I have a solution for that as well which works better if you have height issues with content.

Id like to start by saying , This is without a doubt one of the best mods i have ever seen for vb.. top job.. i just wish i knew more about coding so i could get it done without hassling you for help..

Im at teh need to edit tabexternal.php file and i cant for teh life of me find where i neeed to edit teh file.. could you please paste a snippet example of adding forum ids and where please bobster.. id very much appreciate the help..

regards

Wayne

Hi Wayne,

tabexternal.php is not a recent threads sample, so it won't have anything to do with forumIDs, it is more for static content that you wish to add.. the other files in the zip (tabexternal2, tabexternal3, tabexternal4) are for recent threads examples and there is a text doc (Instructions for PHP Samples) in the zip that explains how to edit the php content files.

HOWEVER ....

I would highly suggest using the tabrecentthreadsexp2.php file for recent threads rather than the tabexternal files. You can grab this newest file on the 3rd post in this thread ( https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....44&postcount=3 ) To set the FormIDs in this version, go to line 68 (in this sample, I am pulling from Forum 15, 31, 32 and 33 ... )

The tabrecentthreadsexp2.php is a much better file to use.

Thankyou bobster, i think soem people are coder orientated and soem just arent.. i fall into the latter cat..lol... i think my problem is reading teh whole thread before startin as all teh suggested edits to improve seo etc got me all confused..

i am a little lost as to setting up modules etc and wrappers in vbadvanced as i haev only had it installed a few weeks and havent really gotten to grips with it..

i am just working on pulling 4 seperate tabs displaying recent threads from 4 seperate areas of my board, id like 5 Tabs total with the first showing a flash welcome message/animation

I have a couple of questions for when i do get this working.. i have phpprobid auction and photopost pro, is it possible to pull latest listings from the auction and latest uploads from gallery into a tabs also? do you know any examples of anyone else doing this? 1 last question bobster...

have you included any suggested seo improvement edits suggested by themilkcarton? or will i need to go back through and follow these edits myself? i wish this was a plugin..lol

thankyou for an awesoem mod.. just wish i werent so thick..
