Forum Home Enhancements - [YUI] Tabbed Forum Home

[YUI] Tabbed Forum Home (TFH) version 4.0.8
vBulletin version: 4.1.11 - 4.2.0
Older versions need original mod for now

Description:
This MOD is for creating a "Tabbed" Forum Home Page to have Categories and other Data types (via Modules) displayed within Tab containers. Please do not confuse this with the Tab Menu System here at vbulletin.org. They are totally different systems. These Tabs actually switch the content via AJAX without leaving the main forums page.

This is an entirely new version of TFH and only works with vB4. Management is all done via the Admin CP.

Installation is done in 3 simple steps. Upload files, Import product, 3 easy Template Edits.

Setup is now a breeze via the Tabs option in the Admin CP.

The attached Zip File contains the Files and Instructions necessary to install.

Incompatible mods
Two columns of categories - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=275114

Upgrading to 4.0.7+ from previous versions
We have had to change the mod's id which means when you install this time you will have 2 mods, the new version with its new id and the old version.
Both can run side by side but shouldnt to save processing time.

To migrate:
Install the latest version and upload all the files (no conflicts to worry about)
Install the latest product xml
Follow the template changes in the upgrade txt
Create your tabs in the new admincp menu option "EG: Tabbed Forum Home" to mirror the existing "Tabbed Forum Home" menu.
Once done uninstall the product "Tabbed Forum Home" with productid bobster_tfh (old mod id)

Just got the new version of Dispatcher :up: Just upgraded my test site using YUI 2.7.0 and the new version of dispatcher.. no IE errors and IE seems to be working fine. Putting together a new release today... should be out later today or tomorrow (might try and fix a few bugs in the mean time).

Yeah that would be sweet to have a mod that would easily do that. But I think that might be for another mod.

Thanks for the update. I'll give it a go on my VB4 forum sometime this weekend

ah crap.. I KNEW that there was something else I need to fix! gah! I'll try and figure out a solution for that tomorrow if I have time.

Did you test it in IE to see if it fixed the IE issues that you were having? Everything seemed to work fine for me in IE.
