1. Make sure you complete the install. Everyone gets so excited that Tab 1 is working that they forget to finish the install (Which is why the other tabs won't work)..

2. I don't use MGC Shoutbox, so I don't know what it would be showing double. Maybe someone that has knowledge of MGC Shoutbox can assist you?
I did everything again and it works! Both problems disappeared.
You're great! :p

So now could You help me with this?

2. I would like to use tabs but no for all forums. I want to do it like here:
http://www.dailysportspages.com/forums/index.php

FORUM 1 (no tab)

TABS (FORUM 1,2,3,4,5,6)

FORUM 2 (no tab)
How to do it?

And 2nd question :D
Where can I define forum's IDs to locate categories in spefyfic tab? E.g. categories 1,2,3 to TAB1, categories 4,7,12 to TAB2 etc.

I have read the instructions several times and still I do not know how to share (tabbed) a forum ...
When I click TAB1 I see all forums. When I click TAB2 I see some category, the same is the case TAB3.
How can I add my own, specyfic categories? I tried change additional code in index_tab.php, edit forumhome template, but it does not work. ;/
Please help me!

Any ETA on version 2.0?? (no exact date needed, just if it's a week, month, or more away)
I would really like to install this mod on my forum, but I'd rather wait for version 2.0 if it's not a month+ away.. :)

Hi all

I had exactly the same probs as TimberFloorAu

I had changed all the links etc too.

I found that the tabforumhome.php in the root had not uploaded correctly 0kb

after reloading it all worked

great MOD thanks

fib 09-29-2008 12:57 AM

Hold up

if you don't have javascript it is not working as it goes to tabforumhome.php showing a mess and therefore it is not degrading gracefully

Did I miss something or was I making an assumption?
was this not to do with the creating new template bit?

help please - I may have to uninstall

King Kovifor 09-29-2008 01:15 AM

This mod is dependent on JavaScript as is all AJAX.

Thank you for your response

Modern web thinking would mean that AJAX used in sites should degrade gracefully meaning if no ajax it works through normal page loads

this is what I think happens with the new template and the <!-- main --> stuff we moved to the new template

my impression was that it would revert to the old template when no java present

I shall have to look at this in more detail - Can the developer clarify which way this lies

Hamednet 09-29-2008 09:26 AM

thanks dear

very nice !

dazkeirle 09-29-2008 11:17 AM

ok guys.

First: Anyone with a linux box, in the js file remove the "/" before clientscript in the source for the css and the loading gif. That will allow those to load.

Second: anybody noticing these display different by default on IE and firefox, It's because the line is added as a class to a break (<br>) instead of a div. Change to a div and all should be well.

I've installed the tabbing. And it looks nice: http://www.mygreatphone.com/forum

Only comments would be:

a) I'd really like it if i could add individual forums to a tab and not just categories.

b) A simple bit of code to show all cats (for my everything tab, instead of having to add everything)

c) The forums no longer show how many are viewing each forum, that would be a really welcome thing to have back, and may even be a deal breaker to whether i use this in the long term.

d)Would be great if it would degrade gracefully, so if no JS or ajax, that it loads the default or other non tabbed style.

Anyway, good for a work-print add-on, but a bit to go before it's perfect (ie. features not working like number viewing and lack of degradation.)

We agree with you, however, there is currently no checking to see if JS is disabled. This is something that is being looked into for the future versions. We are aware of it and it is in our plans.

Thank you for the constructive feedback.. much appreciated..

a) This will be possible with the new version (the final release, not the beta). You will be able to use the recent threads module with the beta to pull this off in the mean time.

b) This is an ACP Option with version 2 as well as user group permissions for each tab.

c) This is "fixed" in version 2 as well as Mark Forums Read.

d) as addressed above, this is something that has been in our plans and is being currently looked into as a high priority.

Well in that case well done you.

Good on you for wanting to mature the product. If you carry on like this it's going to be really popular.

Look forward to the updates.

Morsolo 09-29-2008 11:16 PM

This is a great mod and it is exact what I've been looking for, but it has one fatal flaw...

Its usability is horrible, yes I'm aware you need a fair amount of knowledge to operate it, which I have no problems with, but still the amount of hoops I need to jump through just to make it look different is ridiculous :(

I've been trying to make it look like the Member Tabs on the vBStyles GreenFox skin, but with no luck.
If anyone would like to edit it themselves and post a new CSS up here I would love you ;)

I'm not a CSS guy, but 2.0 is much easier to set up - as almost no HTML / PHP knowledge is required because it now has an ACP back end. And YUI Tab View may have a simpler CSS - but I know we've cleaned it up for our specific release.

Sorry if we're not a super cool Mod like yourself *Bows* - But we can't use 2.0 yet :(
So until 2.0 gets out, I guess I'll just have to sit quietly in the corner.

KK being a MOD has nothing to do with it... he is one of my co-developers, that is why he responds to peoples inqueries..

Version 2 uses the YUI Tab View Component which uses the default Tab View CSS (same one that default vB bases the Profiles off of) the CSS Skin file is all commented, so it is super easy to edit for non CSS Guru's, but built so that Advanced users can also take advantage to customize beyond the basics if they so choose to.

We are just finishing up with the Install Doc. Beta 2.0 will be released by this weekend.

I didn't mean it that way, I would have just said we aren't as lucky, but because he was Mod, I decided to pick on that :)
To any other member, I have just said "None of us are as lucky as you" or something.

Sounds great so far though, keep it up, I can't wait for 2.0 ;)

EricGT 09-30-2008 09:55 PM

It would be great if we could pull a logged-in user's subscribed forums list into a tab, and only display that tab if the user is logged in and has subscribed to any forums. This would be a great default tab for a logged-in user.

I just installed the mod, BTW, and I love it. i have been working on a similar way to condense the forum listings on the main page, but your solution is more elegant. Thanks. Eric

That's not a bad idea. I will see if I can get a module set up to allow this - and if I can I will release it either with 2.0 b2+ or 2.1+ as a default; before that it may only be an addon.

One question having searched this mammoth thread and not been able to find it...

I've got some members who prefer the old layout (roll eyes) - is there a way I can give them the choice whilst keeping the tabs in place ?

maidos 10-01-2008 02:27 PM

when the beta is out can we use the beta and upgrade to the stable version with no issue?

With the AJAX 1.5 version, having the tabbed categories on one skin doesn't affect the layout of a different skin. At least not as far as I've gathered from messing around with it for a while. So having multiple skin choices should solve that issue for you.

Yes. 2.0 is database driven, so only changes may be minor template chagnes for you to make.

Magnumutz 10-02-2008 07:54 AM

Can the same thing be done with bobster's other mod: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=191106 ?

Great news my friend all round.

I have since had another thought that would enhance the product.

The issue with the tabs being there is there's now no longer a front page status showing what threads have been updated and that contain new posts.

So what I'd suggest is instead of say my tabs saying:

Handsets | Networks | Info etc.

They say:

Handsets(2) | Networks(6) | Info

So basically any tabs which contain forums with new posts, the number of new posts is collated and displayed on the actual tab.

Hope that makes sense.

Else the only thing i see as a problem is that the frontpage tabbed section gets all the attention and nobody ever updates the other sections.

Food for thought.
