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)

Yep.. done that.. removed, installed over... went over the templates many times

The Tabs show up but nothing, no forums displayed

[ManagerJosh]

It works here.. I'm telling you that much.

Part of me wonders if ya forgot to change to the right style set




@Bobster ! YAY! Small request: Anyway to do a partial cache of all the tab listings itself? Or someway to speed up the listing of the forums? I'm not so much worried about the ever-changing data like who posted, but the list of forums is pretty consistent and it might be good to minimize the delay response

[Merjawy]

nah.. I am not as dumb as I look.. I am much dummer lol

looks good on your site and no error either
for some reason the second edit of FORUMHOME is causing an error to be dsiplayed on stats line at the buttom and I am thinking that might just be the issue

main ---> /main

I made sure I did it right though

EDIT: Looks like I done everything right as it works fine on Firefox, but not on IE8 (though I was able to see it fine with IE8 on your site)

[PinoyRepublic]

Disregard my previous post. I already managed to replace li to div.

Thanks!

EDIT:

Is it possible to trigger(emulate click) all the buttons at startup so that all the forums are loaded? Some users think that when they click the tab its empty or nothing happens. Like your non-javascipt version Tabbed Forum Home version 1.01

Im having an issue. I add a Tab and shows its completion and when I try to add the second tab it shows a blank Box and returns to the Tab Panel. Anyone else having this issue?

[Sador]

Hmm, I think I remember this mod from 3.8, never got it to work quite well.

[Merjawy]

I gave up and went to bed, this morning it was working fine in IE8 lol

Thanks for the mod

[taffy056]

This is a great mod, been waiting to install this with baited breathe

Thanks!

[taffy056]

got strange problem, the make this default tab has disappeared , and cannot make another tab default unless I make a new one, also once its made default I can't edit it as it says its not allowed.

Please report any "bugs" here: http://www.smnlikdat.org/project.php?projectid=2 Specify that the bug is for version 4.0.0 Beta 1 Thank you.

for those that want faster loading, set cache to YES.

Also, for permissions, check to make sure that the last option on Settings >> Options >> Forums Home Page Options >> Check Usergroup is set to YES
