Forum Home Enhancements - [YUI] Tabbed Forum Home

[YUI] Tabbed Forum Home (TFH) version 4.0.8
vBulletin version: 4.1.11 - 4.2.0
Older versions need original mod for now

Description:
This MOD is for creating a "Tabbed" Forum Home Page to have Categories and other Data types (via Modules) displayed within Tab containers. Please do not confuse this with the Tab Menu System here at vbulletin.org. They are totally different systems. These Tabs actually switch the content via AJAX without leaving the main forums page.

This is an entirely new version of TFH and only works with vB4. Management is all done via the Admin CP.

Installation is done in 3 simple steps. Upload files, Import product, 3 easy Template Edits.

Setup is now a breeze via the Tabs option in the Admin CP.

The attached Zip File contains the Files and Instructions necessary to install.

Incompatible mods
Two columns of categories - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=275114

Upgrading to 4.0.7+ from previous versions
We have had to change the mod's id which means when you install this time you will have 2 mods, the new version with its new id and the old version.
Both can run side by side but shouldnt to save processing time.

To migrate:
Install the latest version and upload all the files (no conflicts to worry about)
Install the latest product xml
Follow the template changes in the upgrade txt
Create your tabs in the new admincp menu option "EG: Tabbed Forum Home" to mirror the existing "Tabbed Forum Home" menu.
Once done uninstall the product "Tabbed Forum Home" with productid bobster_tfh (old mod id)

Short Question Is your Mod Supporting secendery Groups ? Dont think so maybe you can add this in your next Version. What i mean is when someone is Primar Reg User and Secend. Admin he cant see the Tabs with Admin Rights (6) only.

That is one of the bugs. It is being worked on and will be released in the next update.

To get it to show up, you have to close IE and restart it. I have tested this without the chats and with both chats on IE8.

I have tested on FireFox and it works fine.

I was wondering if anyone may have any thoughts on this matter or maybe a way to fix this please.

Cyb (Valtar) just released a new version today. I installed it and it seems to work fine. I don't have IE8 tho, so you'll need to check it out again and let me know.

Works fine on my vb 4.02 testboard, anyway.

However, I'm still curious about the seo stuff.

Not that I've found yet. Just upgraded my dev site this AM and all runs smoothly.

In the screenshot there's one for recent blogs... how did you do that?

Also, is there a way to change the color of the tab and or the text?
