What this mod does is allows admins to add custom tabbars to Forumhome,,,Gallery or CMPS navbar templates... With customization you can also add it to other areas of your site...

ATTENTION:
*********
Before installing or updating,,, download and read tutorial...

Primary setup consists of uploading minitabs images folder to your forum images folder...

FIXED CMPS with better dropdown options
  1. If you want to add to your CMPS,,, You must upload minitabs images folder to your domain root...
  2. http://yoursite.com/images/minitabbar/
  3. Goto CMPS and open main options / global varible...>>> Add $var $minitabbar1 or minitabbar1 so that it will show on frontpage...save...

If you want to add to your Gallery,,, You must upload minitabs images folder to your gallery root...
http://yoursite.com/gallery/images/minitabs/

If you want to add to your Forum,,, You must upload minitabs images folder to your Forum root...
http://yoursite.com/forums/images/minitabs/

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

Step {2}

Goto Admincp and open products and install xml plugin with admin options on/off...

Goto vbsettings at top of admincp and find Minitabs and open...

  • View options and setup URL's
  • View options and setup Tooltip text
  • View options and setup Name of each tabbar
  • View options and setup CSS color of text
  • View options and setup Color type of tabbar from over 30 colors
  • View options and setup Font family type
  • View options and setup Font size
  • View options and setup Hover color link text
  • View options and setup No hover color link text

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

Step
{3}

Goto vbsettings at top of admincp and find Minitabbars and open...

Setup correct path so that your images will show correctly...


images/minitabs/spacer.gif = http://yoursite.com/forums/images/minitabs/spacer.gif

Place main images folder {{{ minitabs }}} = http://yoursite.com/forums/images/minitabs/

Place main images folder {{{ minitabs }}} = http://forums/images/minitabs/yoursite.com/

Second option may need customization to xml...

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

Step {4}

Popups? This mod uses the default vbulletin dropdown menu...
Some of my other mods don't work well with vbulletin default dropdown menus... other type {Chrome}?

Adding popups code to text window...
******************************

UPDATED Dropdowns to work on all TEN minitabbars
added the ability to turn on/off all eight dropdowns...
added the ability to control register and ID names on all TEN dropdowns...


HTML Code:
***********************************************************************
demo dropdown menu code that works with all TEN minitabbars ...

Since last night, I am fiddeling around with this mod and I do have a few questions:
  • Can we have pulldown menues on all tabs?
  • The tabs don't show in vbadvanced CMPS
  • In photopost, you can see the tab names, but not the tabs

It's a nice mod and life would be much easier with using this, instead of doing it by hand.
Thanks for all the work done.

peterle1,,,
Yes ,,, all tabs can show vbulletin default pulldowns,,, but U will have to modify your the dropdown code... I will update this so that all will have a easier time installing and making changes...

In vbadvanced they will show,,, but you will have to use global option var in CMPS options and then next upload another set of images to the MAIN root of your domain... >>> http://yoursite.com instead of http://yoursite.com/forums/...

Same with your Gallery,,, U will have to upload a set of images to that MAIN root of your gallery,,, the same as adding a style 2 your gallery...


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

xlegends,,,
I have been working on other stuff and stopped testing this one,,, but if you uploaded all images including the spacer file,,, then it should work fine,,, but it could be something else...

Check that you loaded the global option in CMPS???

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

I will do another update with better error checking and post more details on how to fix if problems with CMPS,,, Gallery or Forums...
