Any way to make this work with PHP5 ?

Hey Hugo.... you can set the container to a "fixed" height, but it you have more text than the height of the container, then its going to over flow below the the set height.

If you want to experiment with it, edit the "smnlikquick" template ..

This Div is what controls the container...

So to give it a "fixed" height, just add the height attribute In RED) to the style like this..

What errors do you have?

Im getting this:

I even contacted my host about this and they said I had to downgrade to PHP4... But i dont want to do that. There needs to be a way around?

I have never heard about pass-by-pass reference. I will look into when I get home and can search stuff up on PHP.net. :)

I hope you are luckier then me, i havent been able to find anything to help, and this is one of those addons that i REALLY would like to get up and running :D

Edit: I did found this: http://se.php.net/manual/en/language...ences.pass.php
Im not so good with that PHP so i hope you understand that more then me :P

That sheds some light. I will give Bree a fix soon.

OMG. if thats true you are my hero :D
Ill be refreshing this like mad now >_>

I will look at it tomorrow (today) as it is now after midnight. I am too tired to code anything now.

You crack me up! LOL

Thanks, bobster65. I'll give that a try. :)

Worked great. Thanks again, bobster65. :)

In addition to the request that usergroup permissions be possible, I'd also appreciate it if a future update included an option for the User CP so that members can choose to switch the announcements block on or off.

Despite what Bob thinks, this was a really simple fix and I had time to fix it today. Give this file a try and if it works for you I will send it off to Bree to give a general update.

Just overwrite the previous ./smnlikquick.php file.

Thank you so much, I will re install this right now and try it, and i will let you know.

No need to reinstall, just upload that file and overwrite the one in your forum root directory.

I uninstalled it when it didnt work :P
But I installed it again and everything seems to work perfectly, no errors nothing.
Your the best, thank you so much.

OK, Glad it worked. I will send it to Bree later. :)

Why is mine coming out like this? http://i29.tinypic.com/2lw41f7.jpg

I have the module installed, but all I get is a box with a bulleted list of what I expected to be on the tab labels. There aren't even any tabs, just a plain box. Any ideas what I could have missed?

In the FORUM HOME Template, make sure your PATHS (IN RED) are set correctly.. You can put the FULL URL to the file(s) and that might solve the problem. The reason its coming out as a bulleted list is that its not finding the CSS File.

May I ask this also support UTF-8 ? I mean multi-language ?

Excellent mod :). I got it to work perfectly on my forums, but when I followed the installation instructions to have it show up on the vbadvanced CMS homepage, it came up but the announcements would not show... it just showed a continous Loading....

I reverted back to just having it on my forums homepage for the time being, but I'm curious if anyone else ran into this issue while trying to use it as a module on the vbaCMS frontpage and/or if anyone has a clue on how to resolve it?

Great work so far on everything Bree and anyone else who has helped with this mod :)

thanks for this mod


i have the same probleme

try my code,i'v fix some problem of unicode
the first file is in the admincp,just overwrite it.
the seconde file is XML , overwrite it too.

Error database with the file xml

This mod is perfect, will nominate it too ...

Suggestions for next version:

Allow for multi row of tabs, with the tab graphix finished so it has outline all around the tab
Option to center tabs across the box
Incorporate bbcode and html at same time, or option to have either per tab
Let images be used inside the tabs, I haven't been able to, so not sure if its me or the mod.

I'm not sure if this is where I would ask for support but,...
I am trying to install the mod. I uploaded all files as instructed, went into the admin and selected Plugins & Products>Manage Products>Add/Import and where it says import the XML file from your server, I entered ./includes/xml/cpnav_smnlikquick.xml but I get an error saying: Invalid File Specified. I then tried re-uploading the file using the Browse in the Import manager but I get the same error. Am I importing correctly or should I be importing a different file?

Thanks

I am working on the BBCode + HTML support.

It shouldn't be a cpnav_ file. You should upload the .xml that is in the root folder of the zip file.

Thank you King Kovifor.

I don't know how I missed that file. I uploaded all the files in the Upload folder and missed that one. Thank you very much.

Appreciate your help.

It wasn't in the upload folder most likely. I sent the v2.0.5 to Bree this morning so hopefully she will update it with the patch I supplied earlier soon.

I got it installed now and I have just one more problem, (I hope).

I added two announcements but I am not getting the tabs. Just two links with the announcements auto-rotating below the links. The rotation is very fast as well.

I don't see anything in the settings that looks like it would determine if I had links or tabs.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

King Kovifor... by any chance, did your update/fixes include the vbAdvanced CMS issue I & some others were experiencing with the loading announcements issue?

In the FORUM HOME Template, make sure your PATHS (IN RED) are set correctly.. You can put the FULL URL to the file(s) and that should solve the problem.

Thanks Bobster65, I missed the begining forward slash in the path. The tabs are there now.

One final question though. The announcements are still auto-rotating back and forth. How do you set it up so that it only changes if you click the tabs?

Thanks again.

Cool Beans ..

To modify the auto rotation, edit the "smnlikquick" template and look for this code towards the bottom of it..

Change the mytabs.init(5000) to mytabs.init() the 5000 is in microseconds, so it was set to rotate every 5 seconds... setting it to () removes the rotation completely and makes it so that you have to click on a tab.

I haven't messed with the CMPS module, I think it was a direct modification of one of Bobster's so I will send it to him to check out.

Support for that being an option in the ACP is planned, so that will be in the next major version most likely. But it is somewhere in the template. Maybe Bobster knows the exact spot.

Interesting! What I find is that when you first enter the home page it auto-rotates between the anouncements. If I click on one of the tabs then it stops auto-rotating and does not change unless you click a different tab. If I refresh the page, then it starts to auto-rotate between the anouncements again until I click on one of the tabs again. Weird!

That's not weird, its how auto rotation is supposed to be if initialized. Auto rotation stops as soon as you click on a tab. If you refresh, you are invoking the original state, which is to auto rotate until a tab is clicked on. I posted above how to initialize without auto rotation.

Once Bree gets back online, I am going to have her change the default install to NOT rotate and add the ability to set the auto rotate time in the ACP.

It seemed weird to me at the time but I wasn't aware that it was supposed to do that. :)

Setting the default as non-rotating seems to me to be the best way to go. The reason I say this is because in between rotations it clears the box (table), and displays the "loading" animation, which is fine in and of itself, but I find that because the box shrinks in height when the animation begins and grows in height when it displays the next announcement, the forums listing is jumping up and down on the page. If I scroll down trying to look at all of the forums, I find it very distracting as the list jumps up and down on the page.

I am not trying to knock the mod. It is a great mod and it is what I have wanted for some time now, but I am simply trying to point out what I think might improve it. If it is not auto-rotating, the forum list will not jump up and down.

As said in previous post, you can change the height of the box so it stays the same size when loading another tab.

Question:

Is it possible to include something where you can call the Last topics made in a certain forum to show in the tabs and update itself when a new topic is made in that forum?

Thanks :)
