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.

The Hack only use 1 SQL sentence to create All the Menu, no Template edition

Don't know what you mean but anyways, I upgraded my forum to 4.0.2 and this issue is history since I'm using the default style now. I can confirm that the What's New tab can't be disabled.

I uninstalled this since it caused some issues. In my admin panel the options on the left side are still there.

*[evbs_sstab_advanced_menu]* +
*[evbs_sstab_advanced_config]*
*[evbs_sstab_advanced_manager]*
*[evbs_sstab_advanced_add_menu_tab]*
*[evbs_sstab_advanced_add_sub_menu]*

How can I get rid of this?

EDIT: Deleted the uploaded files and it disappeared. Problem solved.

Thanks for the help.

I've done that, added a few more tabs, clicked yes to hide What's New, but it still shows up. Any suggestions?

This has been covered. The first thing you must do before installing any add-on is to read the entire thread associated with it. Yes, we all know that's a pain, but so are questions for stuff that's already been answered.

Quick answer: There is no answer yet. No update, no workaround.
