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)

Edit skin.tfh.css and change:

.yui-navset .yui-content {
background: #FFFFFF;

To

.yui-navset .yui-content {
background: transparent;

That removes the white background, or do you mean the spacing as well?

[Noslo]

I also mean the spacing. Thanks zero hour!

I'm getting an error after enabling the default all tab and blogs.

Database error in vBulletin 4.2.0:

SELECT * FROM `vb_tabs` WHERE `iden`='m' ORDER BY `tabid`;

I've edited out any of my person database information.

Uninstalled it and tried to reinstall, also re-uploaded all files to make sure I had everything correct and the error persists, after making the forumhome edits etc nothing shows where my forums should be. Checked on your own forums and can see your tabs no problem.

Fixed, thanks for reporting.
Drop in replacement attached.

Patch integrated into version 4.0.8

[Bluefin221]

The error still exists, just to clarify here....

When I import the new product file it creates a new tabs area within my admin panel. So the old one I imagine is obsolete so I uninstalled the old product file and the error appears. When I install the old product file again the error is gone, however again after editing the appropriate files the forums will not load. Its completely blank.

This is with old and new installed together or just new installed alone. I even tried to create tabs within old and new just to make sure still the forums are blank.

Are you 100% sure you downloaded and replaced this file?

Yes, replaced it within the admin folder.

[Noslo]

Zero how do I remove the space under the tabs.

[Bluefin221]

Zero I could add you on skype if you have it to help work through this faster, you could also then have a look at my site.

[Bluefin221]

Ok I fixed it, this part here of the edit:

<!-- Tabbed Forum Home Header Code 4.0.7 -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{vb:raw vboptions.bburl}/tfh/tabview.css" /> 
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{vb:raw vboptions.bburl}/tfh/skin-tfh.css" /> 
<!-- TFH JS -->
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
if (remoteyui)
{
document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="/clientscript/tfh/dispatcher-min.2.2.js"></script>');
document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="http://yui.yahooapis.com/2.9.0/build/element/element-min.js"></script>');
document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="http://yui.yahooapis.com/2.9.0/build/tabview/tabview-min.js"></script>');
}
else
{
document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="/clientscript/tfh/dispatcher-min.2.2.js"></script>');
document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="/clientscript/yui/element/element-min.js"></script>');
document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="/clientscript/yui/tabview/tabview-min.js"></script>');
}
//-->
</script>
<!-- /Tabbed Forum Home Header Code -->

On each instance of src="/clientscript/ I have had to add my forums folder in so src="/clientscript/ becomes src="/forums/clientscript/

Aside from that it I have an error when trying to save the display order so all my order is currently at 10.

Database error in vBulletin 4.2.0:

Invalid SQL:
UPDATE vb_tabs SET
displayorder = 20
WHERE tabid = 1;

Again I have edited out personal database information.
