Same situation here...

Suggestions
Tab Label for the field
Entering the variables allows the phrase

Choose the language forum for visitors to change the language

Sample:

Tab Label and Menu Text:
For Member List > {vb:rawphrase members_list}
For Albums > {vb:rawphrase albums}
For Groups > {vb:rawphrase social_groups}
etc

Hi

I installed this on my new site www.247gamers.net. When clicking on everything it highlights the tab correctly except the home tab. It does not highlight it and the last tab that was highlighted remains highlighted, what have I done wrong?

Cheers

Uninstalled for the moment...

I hope those of you who remove the link will at least support the developer by donating via Paypal. After all, he does not get paid for this and there are in fact inferior products out there that do this same thing and CHARGE for it. I bumped into one that wanted $30 PLUS $15 to remove the link to their page.

I think anybody who uses this should feel like a loser if they don't donate at least $10. I have donated that and I don't even use it yet! When I do (once it does what I need, which I hope is coming in the next release) I plan to donate another $20 or more. Not tooting my own horn but rather trying to inspire people around here to pay their way so these types of mods keep coming. Otherwise we might end up having to pay a lot more and get stuck with "branding" links on the bottom like somebody said for 500 pixels high!

Sorry for my bad englisch:

My Problem: see the extension "Fehlerbild.png" - the buttom "Impressum" is not active, while the side Impressum is active - instead of it, the buttom "Forum" is show as active. Can anyone help me?

I'm currently experiencing that.
Ideas?

GREAT MOD!

It shows that the 'GALLERY' tab is active, when I'm really at the 'FORUM' tab, or any other tab.

[Jesh]

When I uninstall, my admincp is showing: *[evbs_sstab_advanced_menu]*

Any idea how to fix this??
