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)

Hey, nice tip!!!
Now I can see the tabs again!
But when I klick the tab, only a window appears with LOADING TAB CONTENT... and after this, the tab is still empty.

What else can I try to get this tool working well?

do you have check your tabs configuration in admincp?

The new one does not work with 4.1.12 but, the old one does.

[Dark Navi]

Has anyone got a fix for 4.2?

The tabs appear, but they don't load the content;



I've done all of the previous fixes to get to this stage (And I've left the main forums there so I can still access them)

Or 4.0.0 beta2?

Anyone have this working on VB 4.2 yet?

[Raimund]

Anyone have this working on VB 4.2 yet?

yes, me. did no work, showed no tabs nor categories.

[ProFifaLeagues]

Clean install for me on 4.2 but again no tabs shown once setup in admin Cp.
Any ideas??

[Rudefish]

Same problem for me, does not show on 4.2

[Athena1984]

This shows for me in 4.2.0 but, all of a sudden the content under each tab is loading extremely slow. I am using the older version. I'm about to test the newer version and see if I get the same errors everyone else is reporting.

EDIT: I just upgraded to the newer version without changing the templates from the old edits and it works a lot better now.

[Raimund]

still cant get it to work, did a clean install on 4.2. shows nothing, no forums, no categories, no tabs.
