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.

The Hack only use 1 SQL sentence to create All the Menu, no Template edition

Nice mod, working great here in 4.0.5

[ElfenLied1337]

Works great for me as well, much appreciated.

Just letting you know this mod promotes invalid xHTML, look through your plugin code and you will find an li tag that is not closed. I changed it to </li> and it was fine and now validates. Just for future releases.

Getting an internal server error with both 203 and 204a in ACP. Config works and I see default tags but cannot access to add custom tags. Using VB4.0.6.

Any ideas?
