Tabbed Forum Home version 1.01
[AJAX] Tabbed Forum Home version 1.5.0 (BETA) NOTE: Works with both 3.7x and 3.6x Description: This MOD is for creating a "Tabbed" Forum Home Page to have Categories displayed within Tab containers (similar to what the new Profile System looks like on vb3.7). 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 without leaving the main forums page. I wrote the initial Non AJAX version based on reading many requests from members asking about how namepros created their custom tabbed forum home page. The first implementation I did was a request by bbwforums.net (which you can visit to see a working example). I have shared this version with many members already and decided to release it since it seems to be something that a lot of members are interested in. UPDATE: I have released a BETA [AJAX] version for those that what something a little more robust and easier to install/configure. This Beta version will never go into production tho as version 2.0 will utilize the YUI AJAX Tabview Toolset. It IS stable tho and is currently running on a few live sites. NOTE: Keep in mind, I wrote this with the assumption that you are fairly well versed and comfortable with editing files/templates and following the flow of things. If there is something you don't understand, PLEASE let me know so that I can help you understand it. This IS NOT a product that a novice can just plug and play and it takes a little bit of time to setup, but its well worth it in the end (if you want a custom unique look to your forum home page)... the next version (Don't ask when, cause its just on the drawing board) will be a product with ACP controls for easy setup The attached Zip File(s) contain the Files and Instructions necessary to install each version. DEMO: www.bbwforums.net or www.namepros.com [Moderator Edit: The first URL has been un-linked as there has been reported malware on that domain. The mod author may edit this notice once the situation has been cleaned.] Screen Shots: None, visit one or both of the above links as seeing them in action is better than some static image(s).. Bobster Change Log version 1.01 - tabcontent.js ver 2.2 to support remote links updated install instructions (both in txt and rtf format) version 1.5.0 - BETA [AJAX] version July 8, 2008 - Added xml file for WOL Sep 2, 2008 - Updated xml file for WOL Download Now

Aha, Brilliant! Though I would strongly reccommend that you remove the / before /clientscript.. as it's caused most of the errors here, other than that, worked like a charm mate, installed!

EDITED: I changed my message here because I mistakenly read the wrong instructions file. I read the Read Me first imagine that! The fresh install instructions are in the other file! DOH! No destroying of templates needed!
Reverting templetes is a major no no for people who uses mods. Be warned! BACK UP YOUR TEMPLATES before upgrading or installing this! REQUEST: Can there be a Admin panel to edit the tabs instead of manually editing the templates for tab content. THAT WOULD ROCK! Any plans for that? |

As far as an Admin panel, we do have that in the next version (which is still in beta phase)... |

PROBLEM RESOLVED: Internet Explorer 7 and 8 Bug?
In IE7 or IE8 my tabs are floating above my forum container. How can I fix that. (Working fine in Firefox) See attached screen shot. THANKS! EDIT: After some serious hunting I was able to find the fix for IE which is in my next post. |

Thank You For This Fix! My tabs now work in FF, IE 7 and 8! To be clear you have to remove this line from your FORUMHOME template to correct this issue in IE. Its too bad this fix was lost in the threads. The instructions need to be updated so we don't all waste our time hunting 100+ pages of posts. Now I have to find some "MAC Head" to test my site using Safari. hehehe |
