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)

If i am not wrong you have to change the background color here:

PHP Code:

.yui-navset .yui-nav .selected a,
.yui-navset .yui-nav a:focus,
.yui-navset .yui-nav a:hover {
    background:#ADCCE1 ; 
    color:#4E4E4E;
} 


in skin-tfh.css

I can't figure in my forum right now, sry.

hi guys.
have walked here turns to see if I could, but could not.
It was put images in tabs. Anyone know how I do it?

Thanks :up:

[rob01]

is it possible to use a tab for showing all the forum section threads (with the page numbers also) instead of showing the forum sections

not all forums post, just from a specific section

[justino]

VB4 saw a forum with images in tabs, as I walked around to get in my forum and I am not sure how ..

[TheInsaneManiac]

Feature Requests:
Disable AJAX - It takes awhile to load forums, I want it to be instant, plus ajax is server intensive
Tab Style - When a member clicks a tab I want it to change the whole forum layout.

If you are asking how to use sub categories on this mod, then you are completley missing the point of this mod. The point of this mod is to seperate your forums up, SO, basically eleminated the need for sub categories because it's obivous that the creator assumes you would have figured it out, and use a tab for the forum, then just add the sections to that tab...
