Forum Display Enhancements - Tabs Add System for vBulletin 4 (sstab advanced)

Review:
This mod allows you to easily add and remove tabs on the navigation bar using the adminCP. Tabs can appear as "selected" after being clicked, automatically deselecting the other tabs.
You also have the option of indicating which groups are allowed and not allowed to see the tabs via usergroup id.
Tabs may operate as normal select tabs, as drop-down menus. or as links to external sites.

I've tried a few Tabs mods now and this is by far the most well thought-out, however I get the same issue with each Mod I've tried.

My problem is when I click on the 'New Tab' although I get taken to the correct page the tab isn't then highlighted, it just defaults to hightlight the 'forum' tab. This has got to be a really simple problem but it's driving mad, can anybody help me with a fix please.

Many thanks.

One small problem I'd love it if someone could address:

I installed this and it worked fine, but I decided that I had no real need for it after trying it out so I went to the products manager in AdminCP and selected uninstall. The hack uninstalled from the system, but after the uninstall was completed it left some undesirable remains of the product's settings menu in the sidebar of the AdminCP. I tried re-installing it and repeating the uninstall process, but still it leaves behind this mess. I don't need the hack on my vB4, but I also don't want that ugly mess it left behind on my AdminCP sidebar.

Tell me how to fix this please

The first time you installed it, do you remember uploading a couple of files? You probably do. Go back and find those and delete them.

[preswylde]

Thank you Infopro... that did the trick. I had deleted the php file before but I apparently had overlooked the xml in includes/xml

[bond010007]

i was looking for one like that thanks alot
