Forum Display Enhancements - Tabs Add System for vBulletin 4 (sstab advanced)

Review:
This mod allows you to easily add and remove tabs on the navigation bar using the adminCP. Tabs can appear as "selected" after being clicked, automatically deselecting the other tabs.
You also have the option of indicating which groups are allowed and not allowed to see the tabs via usergroup id.
Tabs may operate as normal select tabs, as drop-down menus. or as links to external sites.

Great work...

I have this mod set to disable the "whats new" tab, but it does not. Any ideas on how to make it disable it?

Minor formatting issue I am having (running the latest version).

http://vfrworld.com/forums/content.php?styleid=8

I have one tab on my menu that is a Menu Tab, which is a drop-down menu. It's the last menu item called Shortcuts.

When I hover over all of the other tabs, the behavior is that the text becomes dark, and the tab is then highlighted. However, when I hover over the Shortcuts tab, the text becomes dark, but the tab is not highlighted, With the default vb style, it's not such a big deal, but with other styles, it makes the text difficult to read, and a slightly negative user experience. Like I said, it's a minor issue, and I've been living with it.

Any idea how I might be able to fix this, or is there no way?

[ArchAngelz]

Just to add that I'm having this issue as well; the text color gets changed, but the tab background colour doesn't.

How do I add to the sub links on the default "Forum" tab?

[furst]

please disregard post, problem sorted.

[Webbstre]

I too get the error for "includes/class_bootstrap.php(384) : eval()'d code on line 263" with the new version. Is there a way to fix this yet? Until there is, I am using the older version.

[Cort]

sorry about the silly question but when I try to import the (product-evbs_sstab_advanced.xml) xml file in the Upload Style XML File it says "not a valid file ". It seems in be in an "Importing style loop"; its churning away but its not able to import the file. Am I in the wrong place or do you have any idea what's going on?

Thanks
