Until I come up with a more easy update use this software 2 assist your CSS editing...

Simple CSS, This software does not install any files. Its standalone.

I use it and its just like it says...SIMPLE

Just create new project and then import the TEXT css menu tab file...Open source and edit:)

Import other css file ext's. also...

Good Luck

i will work on that when im done ill get back to you guys

Where do I place this in photopost, LDM, VBA and Flashchat?

Tabs are currently only displaying on forum home, but not in the rest of the forum or site. I'd like that.

How do I get rid of the tabs floating about my navbar? I am using vb's standard skin. I have checked out the SimpleCSS, but I have not worked much with CSS before and do not see where I should edit what. I do not know the difference between ul li a span Please explain.

Can someone please post a step by step instruction how to use conditionals to keep a tab highlighted within a certain location/area?

Good work thx looks very interesting on my teststyle ;)

view all pages?

Simple yet VERY effective! I added mine to the HEADER template so it shows up on every page. Makes it easier to navigate.

Thanks a lot!

Is there a quick CSS way to make the page you are on a seperate color than the rest of the tabs?

Sorry Alfa1, but Im very busy everyday and I work 3 jobs so I dont have many free hours 2 check all 3rd party softs... Hopefully someone is free 2 help U with this:)

Im presently working on a update 4 this, but working long hours at 3 jobs doesn't help...

I suggest using a editor like DREAMWEAVER 8 and checking the main templates of software and look 4 beginning areas of TABLE area and then insert there...

Use TEST BOARD if U dont wont 2 mess anything up...

Good Luck;)

This looks nice but there are four zip files with all kinds of directories, more compressed files, and no README.

Maybe you could package this into one simple compressed file, directories all laid out so that no images are placed in a root of the forum, and so that there is one simple extraction with a README file.

Hopefully you find this post productive and not whining.

hey guys i came up with an idea how to highlight the current item do you guys wand me to do a little FAQ about it would u guys be interested??

here is my forum http://www.e-paylas.de/forum/index.php

i have planny of menus using css and a template change which makes current link higlight

Yes, absolutely! I would love that. Currently I am stuck with this project and have no clue how to do what you did. I would really like to be able to apply that to my site.

Sweet!! That would be great if you can! :D

I had to uninstall. It adds a second body tag and it is no valid html.

That would be great!

i hope you'll like it...

The link doesn't work.

i think they have to approve the article first

Is there a negative way to approach categories? I mean you can list forumID's 1,2,3,4,5 but what if you want forums defined, but excluding forumID's 1,2,3,4,5? Do you have to list all 6 to 150 if you have that many forums?

yea you have to friend

Some work to do then! :)
I have a vbadvanced homepage, located outside my forums directory: www.mydomain.com/index.php (calls adv_index)
My forums are in www.mydomain.com/forum/index.php
What is the best way to put a conditional to that?
Can I use a url as a conditional or should I use adv_index in some way?

Would it look like this:
<if condition="url=http:www.mydomain.com/index.php"><li id="active"><a href=" http:www.mydomain.com/index.php" id="active">Home</a></li><else /><li><a href=" http:www.mydomain.com/index.php">Home</a></li></if>

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT=='adv_index'"><li id="active"><a href="/index.php" id="active">Home</a></li><else /><li><a href="/index.php">Home</a></li></if>

would be fine

freakin awesome add-on! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

But that would define all vbadvanced pages as home. I need to exclude the other vbadvanced pages.

Is there another approach to the conditional. Like using the vbadvanced identifier for the page?

Try this:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT == 'adv_index' OR defined('VBA_SCRIPT')">
<a href="$vboptions[bburl]?$session[sessionurl]"><span>Forums</span>
<else />
<a href="/"><span>Front Page</span>
</if>
</a>

Good Luck:cool:

www.caraudiojunkyard.com the links show, but the actual tab images doesn't.

www.caraudiojunkyard.com/forum works fine there. How do I fix this?

Hi dbirosel,

Its a path 2 images issue...

Im sure when U uploaded the image folder that its within the FORUM ROOT ...>>> /forums/tabbars/tab_images/ or /forums/tab_images...

It will work fine after altering the path from frontpage 2 link images folder...

Good Luck;)

and how do you do that with vbadvanced?

Sorry Dbirosel, but I use Joomla 1.5 on my frontpages...

Vbavanced is hecca cool, but no longer use it...

I do remember that there is a option in there that allows U 2 make changes to image paths, but not sure where,,, its a newer version these days...
I think 2. something...

U can also try VBA admin area and check links properties path...

Post over at VBA and C if someone can assist U...

I hope its easy with VBA...:up:

Please let us know if you find the answer.

Hey guys I believe theres another way to like VBA frontpage images by copying the images folder { tabs_images} and relocating that copied folder 2 {http://yoursite.com/tab_images/}...

All will be well once U get your images folder in the right path of the frontpage tabs, after that it will become ALIVE...

Good Luck;)

That would also mean you can hardcode the locations. i.e. just enter the full path to your images, instead of the relative path. So instead of tab_left.gif or /tabs_images/tab_left.gif it will be http://www.yoursite.com.tabs_images/tab_left.gif

I'm afraid the solution doesn't work for me. I am testing it in my default test style, before I let it go life.
Does anyone know how I can convert this button to vb default style colours? (blue)
