Is there a way to pass the Forum ID through so that the forum ID can be used for various things within the PHP files (tabsampel1.php, tabsample2.php, tabsample3.php, ect)? Or is there another way to about grabbing the current Forum ID of where the php file is currently being viewed? Hope that makes sense.

Not sure I follow you .. can you try and explain in more detail..

Hey bob,

had not heard back! Was wondering about any update on this add-on? Thanks

I wrote you back, said that I would try and work on something for you during my free time (which I don't have a lot of).. If you need something done faster, put in a request for paid services, there are a ton of people here that can easily assist you and you might even find someone that can do it for free.. I just don't have time to do a bunch of free customizations for people..

Well for some reason when i try to program in php in the files that are being viewed through the tabs (tabsample1, tabsample2, tabsample3), I've make new files and put my own code in and I can't use the $foruminfo['forumid'] to do anything, whether it be echo the value or use a condition. Are there certain files i need to include in those? I have global.php included, and i've tried having several others included, but not matter what i do i can't get the forum id of the forum currently viewing the ajax tabs to show the id inside that tab. I hope that makes sense. I can get what i need to show through the tabs, now i just need that to change based on the forumid without having to make a new module with a new set of tabs. Thanks for any help you can give.

For example, INSIDE the php file tabsample1.php, pretent i've made my own file out of it. I need to be able to say if($foruminfo[forumid]==5) show this, and if it is something else, show that. "Echo $foruminfo" shows the word "array", but $foruminfo[forumid] shows nothing at all. So it clearly isn't being able to pick up the forumid. Unless i'm doing something wrong like not including the right support files or not coding something right.

Thanks for the reply bob
I guess my original request was for something similar to what was requested a few post before mine which would be an addon .php file. I think you mentioned to that poster you were working on that additional option. Is that no longer in the works?

which post, there are so many lol.. it might have been one of the addons for TFH (Tabbed Forum Home) ?

One of these days, members might actually realize that they can release and support content files for this...

Ignore what i said earlier, and let me put it this way.

When i create a new PHP MODULE with vbadvanced, and in the settings section i set the "Initialize Forum Permissions" to YES, it allows me to use $foruminfo[forumid] in the php file and it works fine. When i copy this exact same file and call it with the TEMPLATE module for this AJAX TABS, (EX: Datasrc: "tabsample1.php") i CAN NOT use $foruminfo[forumid]. It simply doesn't work. Is this because "Initialize Forum Permissions" haven't been allowed for this? Is it because this is a TEMPLATE module rather than a PHP module? Is there a way to set TEMPLATE modules to have this very same setting? Is there a way i can go about getting $foruminfo[forumid] to work when the php files are called through these AJAX tabs? I hope to God in heaven this made sense. I really need this to work.

it's work on 3.8.x ?

If you are needing to include variables that are created by a specific function, then you need to include that function within the content php file.

yes
