//--------------------------------------------------------------------

//--------------------------------------------------------------------
//--> New Installation Instructions
//--------------------------------------------------------------------

The files located in the Upload Directory need to be FTP Uploaded to your VBulletin Forum Directory. Click Overwrite All if it comes up will uploading
Once uploaded, If you are using VBA v3 RC2 then you can Import the Module in this Directory to your VBA Modules and it will work.

If you are Upgrading from a Previous version see next section

//--------------------------------------------------------------------
//--> Upgrade Instructions
//--------------------------------------------------------------------

Please Reupload all files into your Vbulletin Directory as I have changed the Javascript and compacted it with the Yahoo Javascript Compactor, Also All Files are hosted
on your domain to speed matters up now.

In Previous versions you had to Change the Header Template to Add the Javascript files, This has been automaticly done inside of the Plugin now so you will need to remove
any manual Header File Changes.

Delete the Old Module from VBA and ReImport the New Module to make sure all settings are overwrote properly.

//--------------------------------------------------------------------
//--> Installation Instructions on older VBA
//--------------------------------------------------------------------

Please read the Installation.txt file inside of the Package

Follow Normal Installation Instructions by Uploading All Files.

Create a new Module inside of VBA, Choose PHP Module(File)

Change the following Settings

File to Include --> treemenu.php
Templates Used --> adv_portal_treemenu
Use Module Wrapper Template --> Yes

Make a New Template and Call it

//--------------------------------------------------------------------
//--> adv_portal_treemenu
//--------------------------------------------------------------------

<tr class="alt1" ><td class="yui-skin-sam">

<div id="treeDiv" style="visibility:hidden;">
$adv_portal_forumlist

Well, you can't atm i didnt code that into it. The original purpose of this module was to only include forums from a certain parent ID. So the only true method to do this would be to open the treemenu.php file, in the begining there is a variable for $titleforum = -1 or something of that nature, You can change the -1 to a certain Parent Forum ID other then that there isnt a method of excluding say Forum 2 from the list sorry wasnt needed nor do I have time to add it as this module serves my purpose as it is.

Are you sure your using the proper style id? IE You added the template change to Style 3 but now your looking at your page under Style 1? I just uploaded a new module for VB 3.0 that does work as I just installed VB 3.0 to test it. If your left with a list of forums that dont open or close then your forgot to edit your head include.

First, My CMPS index is in public_html directory( I didn't move CMPS index to forum's directory like you.).

Second, I edited treemenu.php

Find all: 
forumdisplay.php?f

All Replace:
/forums/forumdisplay.php?f

*red code is mean your forum's main directory's name.

Third, I edited headinclude code.

<script src = "/forums/clientscript/yui/yahoo-dom-event.js" ></script> 

<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="../forums/clientscript/yui/assets/tree.css">
<script src = "/forums/clientscript/yui/treeview.js" ></script> 
<script src="http://yui.yahooapis.com/2.3.1/build/animation/animation-min.js"></script>

*red code is mean your forum's main directory's name.
* Green code is mean, tree.css need full pass or '..'. Why? I don't know. hahaha .

Note: This is just my case!!!

Luck !!

[ragtek]

hm
the part with ../forums/ is strange
just clientscript/yui.... isn't working? are you sure???

are you sure that you have uploaded it right?

[rainyleaves]

Yes, I'm sure.
Works perfectly with ../forums/.
just clientscript/yui.... CSS isn't working.
I don't know why.

[Dankness]

theres a option to do that stuff in vba...
In The Older VBA the option in the admincp was Rewrite Filenames or something, and clientscript was already picked. Just add forumdisplay.php to it and it should automaticlly rewrite the urls. I guess in the next release I'll go ahead and rewrite all the url's to formdisplay to start with its already a variable, I just didnt need it on my install so didn't feel it was worth time adding.

[Evolution06]

Awesome! with the new module file you uploaded I downloaded both zip files overwrote all files uploaded the module and it works perfect!! haha nice mod and nice job awesome support!! thanks, www.blizzfusion.com check it out. Keep in mind I just used all files in the 2 zip folders in the first post not the one you edited in the reply on the 3rd page did not have to do any edits with the new module you uploaded.

Well for some reason whenever I try to save treemenu.php I get this errror: (its only when trying to save treemenu even if I don't do any edits to it.. it still does it.. I have tried other files they save fine.

PHP Code:

open treemenu.php failed: Permission denied at cpanel.pl line 492
    Carp::croak('open treemenu.php failed: Permission denied') called at /usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/Fileman.pm line 1299
    Cpanel::Fileman::fmsavefile('/home/bzfusion/public_html/forums/modules', 'treemenu.php', '<?php^M^J// ++====================================================...', '') called at cpanel.pl line 492
    main::__ANON__('/home/bzfusion/public_html/forums/modules', 'treemenu.php', '<?php^M^J// ++====================================================...', '') called at cpanel.pl line 1479
    main::exectag('<cpanel Fileman="fmsavefile($FORM{\'dir\'},$FORM{\'file\'},$FORM...') called at cpanel.pl line 4376
    main::dotag(undef) called at cpanel.pl line 4265
    main::cpanel_parseblock('SCALAR(0x8f8bd70)') called at cpanel.pl line 4219
    main::cpanel_parse('GLOB(0x91ae3f0)') called at cpanel.pl line 1043

Edit: I got it I just edited the file then reuploaded it you can just add forums/ instead of /forums cause it add's the first / by default also you don't need to add /forums to you headinclude cause I didn't do it and it seems to work good. But thats just me really that might be why you can't clientscript/yui/yahoo-dom-event.js or whatever.

Thats because this mod uses Progressive Enchantment to Redesign a unordered list of your forums. This is the markup and after the javascript hits it turns it into a nice list. Unfort there isnt much you can do about that except remove the module or change the CSS so it looks better without the javascript in place. Or if you search around enough im sure you can figure out a simple way to check if there have a DOM enabled browser and if not then don't display the module but that defeats the purpose of this, in that when a search engine spiders your page, there is a easy to navigate list of links to all your inner forums within 1 click away.
