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 font family hover
  • View and setup css link text color
  • View and setup css visited link text color
  • View and setup css float left or right
  • View and setup css padding left or right shift
  • View and setup css background color or transparent
  • View and setup css bottom border color

Step {4}
********
Image paths in admin options...

Edit left and right image paths in admin options...

Default paths below...>>>

Left = images/tabbars/css5_L.gif

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...


Step {5}
********
Editing tabbars info in admin options...

Peekaboo!

I upgraded from a lower version to the last 0.17 and now ... all my links in the dropdown menues are gone and my tabs are very very very small now.
Another point is vbAdvanced Links, where the tabs are not shown. Not before and not now.

Any hints?

I still don't use it in production system, but I will and it would be great, if you find a way of updating, where the changes in the templates are not simply overwritten, but one will have a chance to do it by hand - at least it's a navigation and with a wrecked navigation ones site sinks in the depth of uselesness ...

Anything special I have to look for, if I want my tabbars in the header?
I think a §tabbarsuite should show them at each place this hook is placed or did I get something wrong?
