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

Okay, worked it out...

In attempting to restrict the sub-navbar from appearing for guests (those not logged in), I had the "if member" condition wrapped around some java script... My bad...

Cheers,

Ian

Developer last on line August 2011 and marked as supported. I think he would welcome a knowledgeable native English speaker to help with the questions. :up:

I am still struggling with highlights and colors. I don't know which stylevars it is using, but it looks like direct code separate from the nav stylevars.

[Kraxell]

Is there a way to change the size of pop-up-menu?
