I've downloaded this and installed the 4.2 upload contents to the site. After install I noticed that I have the same problem that others spoke of but didn't see a fix - in the ACP I have an option for general settings but nothing else.
So I did some exploring and found that in the regular (not 4.2) upload folder there's a folder [DBTech] vBNavTabs v1.3.1 [Lite]\UPLOAD\dbtech\vbnavtabs\actions that doesn't exist in the 4.2 folder. So I uploaded that to the appropriate folder, ran the XML again, but it still doesn't show anything in ACP except General Settings. Are there some files missing or something? The XMLl script didn't complain either time I ran it.
There is nothing else in the settings since vB4.2 was released. All the other settings are found in the Navigation Manager.
I want to create a tab similar to your Reviews tab that has an arrow on it (ideally, but not absolutely necessary) and when you click the tab a dropdown box comes up with links to other pages. My navbar is getting too big and I need to consolidate some of the links onto one tab.
I don't see an option like that in the Navigation Manager but maybe I just don't know what to look for or how to do it in there.
thy install this shit then you will know what i mean !
I do have it installed, and it is installed on the DBTech website and runs as expected. So since you seem to not want to provide any info there is no one that can help you with anything you may be experiencing.
We recently installed your product here and began to use it. However the tabs drop down menu's are not working. We have added the Top MP games with a Menu and 2 links. Only the tab is showing. Also the sub nav bar is now blank below the main tabs. It was full of links and dropdowns before we installed that mod.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Lee
Edit: The tabs are working now. But the Sub nav bar is still empty.
