This mod allows admins to install and manage Standard Tabbars... aka {Nav-Tabs}...

ATTENTION: download Tutorial for better help...

What does it do? Installs multi-tabbar above your navbar...Other options in future updates...

************************************************** *****
Primary setup consists of installing plugin.xml and uploading images...
************************************************** *****

Step {1}
********
Upload images folder...>>> { tabbars } to your forum images folder...

http://yoursite.com/forums/images/tabbars/

http://forums/images/tabbars.yoursite.com/

http://forumsroot/images/tabbars/

CMPS setup: upload images folder...>>> { tabbars } to your domain root images folder...
Setup global option in CMPS admin to show on frontpage...

Goto CMPS admin and find default settings / main options...
Scroll down and find...>>> Portal Output Global Variables...
Insert $var...>>> $tabbarsuite or tabbarsuite,,, SAVE
Last setup images path below...

http://yoursite.com/images/tabbars/

Gallery or Photopost setup: upload images folder...>>> { tabbars } to your gallery root images folder...

http://yoursite.com/gallery/images/tabbars/

http://yoursite.com/photopost/images/tabbars/
  • There are many color sets to choice from within the tabbars folder... 31 total sets...
  • If you have your own set that you prefer to use,,, upload to tabbars folder and overwrite one of the original sets with yours, and select by number option...


Step {2}
********
Setup plugin...
  • Goto admincp and open manage products
  • Select and install plugin tabbar_suite.xml
  • After setup goto forum and view navbar
  • If images uploaded correctly tabbar will show
  • If images don't show up * Check your image path
  • Goto Tabbar Suite settings and begin Css setup


Step {3}
********
Setup CSS in admin options...
  • View and make sure first two options on
  • View and setup css font family no-hover

  • View and setup css visited link text color
  • View and setup css float left or right

Right = images/tabbars/css5_L.gif

If you followed the first four steps and images don't show, you must edit the path above in the Tabbar Suite options... View first step to understand how to link to images folder...

Ok, if you made it here then your images are showing?
If you want to change image sets, edit the path above in options...
How? Edit the numbers only in both paths and your images will change to that number set...

Example: css5_L.gif <<<..... edit the number only {5} to change color sets...

Hello,

Thanks for the version upgrade. However, even though the AdminCP's options seem OK - the tabs are coming out empty of labels and links. Please see here.

I'll PM my access information for your kind and professional support (as always).

Thank you very much .

Thanks for your kind offer, but I'll leave it to Deepdog009 to check since it was perfectly operational before upgrading to v0.1.6.

**************************************************

Fanny Annie,,,
I'am aware of the IE issues and Im sorry its taking a bit of time to resolve... Its an CSS problem that I fixed,,, but then other browser's show issues...


shlomot,,,
I'm sorry about the quick release without testing on online server before output...
I have another release 0.1.7,,, but before 0.1.8 release,,, I want to fix the IE problems first...
I will investigate your issue and advise you shortly...


basilrath,,,
I don't use Photoplog Pro... Is Photoplog free software???

Yes,,, sorry about the IE issues,,, but when I fix it then FF and Safari have issues...

************************************************** **

OK folks,,, I understand about the IE issues
...
Its only a matter of time before resolving,,, so please hang in there...

************************************************** **

Quick Fix to release 0.1.6
********************
Download 0.1.7 Temp fix

OR

Open Tabbar Suite admin and change IMAGE links to TABBARS

Find this...>>>
/forums/images/tabbars/css4_L.gif

Change to this...>>>
/images/tabbars/css4_L.gif

Find this...>>>
/forums/images/tabbars/css4_R.gif

Change to this...>>>
/images/tabbars/css4_R.gif

****************************

Find this...>>>
/clientscript/chrome.js

Change to this...>>>
clientscript/chrome.js

****************************

Folks when turning on dropdowns,,, you must remember that it deactivates the first tabbar link...

If you want to move the dropdowns to other tabbars,,, all you have to do is edit tabbar_suite_main template and move ...>>> rel="dropmenu?"> to that tabbar and save...
HTML Code:
<li><a href="$vboptions[url_tabbar_suite_href7]" title="$vboptions[title_tabbar_suite_info7]" rel="dropmenu3"><span><$imgtbbrsute7/> $vboptions[tabbar_suite_title7]</span></a></li>

If you have more Q&A download Tutorial...

Thank you so much for your second-to-none dedicated support.

One of my members sent me a screen capture of what the tabs now look like when wrapped in IE 7. Please see attachment.

Can something be done about it?

I deleted everything in the Tabbars template....same thing

I don't dare uninstall it.....and the original mod no longer has the XML file..
