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

installed and uninstalled several times.......couldnt get the options to show in the admin cp.....

[BirdOPrey5]

The settings (on the side menu) won't show until you have properly uploaded the included "cpnav..." xml file to the /includes/xml/ directory- this is basically true for all mods that include their own settings list in the side menu.

Thanks for sharing this one, and it seems to also have support for it which is a bug thing, rather then waiting days and days and not hear back from anyone...


Cheers,

I have no problems with this mod and will always use it.

But could anyone tell me how to make the arrow a different color for the drop down Tabs.
As the drop down arrow doesn't show very clear on my skin, so if it was black it would show a lot better.

Hope someone can help, thanks

[BirdOPrey5]

That arrow should be a png image. It's used elsehwere in the forum but you can simply edit the arrow.png file with a new color.
