Forum Home Enhancements - [AJAX] SmnLikQuick v2.0 - Advanced Announcements Block

Description:
SmnLikQuick v2.0 adds an advanced announcement block (Title and Content) to your vBulletin powered pages that is easily managed via AdminCP. This new version (based on the AJAX Tabs Content Script (v 2.0) written by Dynamic Drive), utilizes Ajax to display multiple announcements in one container when the title (tab) is clicked on. It also has the ability (and utilizes this ability upon install) to rotate between tabs (announcements) in a "slideshow" type manner until a user explicitly clicks on a tab (see screenshots provided).

See Post #02 for log.
See Post #98 for Upgrade Instructions.
See Post #99 for Multiple Styles Fix

Please Note that there is a new setting that allows Admins to choose whether to parse BB Code or HTML (not both). It is reccomended that you parse BB for security reasons, however the choice is yours.

I just updated vBulletin to 3.7.3 PL1 and now I'm getting errors with this product. It worked fine until I updated, so I'm assuming that vBulletin's patch no longer uses the function being called here.

Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of [runtime function name](). If you would like to enable call-time pass-by-reference, you can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in your INI file in path/to/smnlikquick.php on line 16

I changed the path in the quote for security reasons, but it actually displays the entire path correctly. So...are we in need of a product update for 3.73 PL1?

line 16: $bbcode = new vB_BbCodeParser(&$vbulletin, fetch_tag_list());

3.7.3 PL1 must have changed something that effects this (obviously lol)...

We'll look into this ASAP!

I fixed it in 2.0.5 I believe. These will all be fixed with 2.0

in the smnlikquick Template, you can try and mess around with the Content DIV container (In RED below.... try border:1px to see if that is what you want?

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%" align="center" border="0">
	<tr>
		<td class="alt1">
			<div id="tabs" class="indentmenu">
				<ul>
				$slq_bit
				</ul>
				<br style="clear: left" />
			</div>
			<div id="divcontainer" style="border:0px; width:97%; padding: 6px; margin-bottom:1em">
			</div>

<script type="text/javascript">

var mytabs=new ddajaxtabs("tabs", "divcontainer")
mytabs.setpersist(false)
mytabs.setselectedClassTarget("link")
mytabs.init(5000)

</script>

		</td>
	</tr>
</table>
