This mod allows admins to install and manage Standard Tabbars... aka {Nav-Tabs}...

ATTENTION: download Tutorial for better help...

What does it do? Installs multi-tabbar above your navbar...Other options in future updates...

************************************************** *****
Primary setup consists of installing plugin.xml and uploading images...
************************************************** *****

Step {1}
********
Upload images folder...>>> { tabbars } to your forum images folder...

http://yoursite.com/forums/images/tabbars/

http://forums/images/tabbars.yoursite.com/

http://forumsroot/images/tabbars/

CMPS setup: upload images folder...>>> { tabbars } to your domain root images folder...
Setup global option in CMPS admin to show on frontpage...

Goto CMPS admin and find default settings / main options...
Scroll down and find...>>> Portal Output Global Variables...
Insert $var...>>> $tabbarsuite or tabbarsuite,,, SAVE
Last setup images path below...

http://yoursite.com/images/tabbars/

Gallery or Photopost setup: upload images folder...>>> { tabbars } to your gallery root images folder...

http://yoursite.com/gallery/images/tabbars/

http://yoursite.com/photopost/images/tabbars/
  • There are many color sets to choice from within the tabbars folder... 31 total sets...
  • If you have your own set that you prefer to use,,, upload to tabbars folder and overwrite one of the original sets with yours, and select by number option...


Step {2}
********
Setup plugin...
  • Goto admincp and open manage products
  • Select and install plugin tabbar_suite.xml
  • After setup goto forum and view navbar
  • If images uploaded correctly tabbar will show
  • If images don't show up * Check your image path
  • Goto Tabbar Suite settings and begin Css setup


Step {3}
********
Setup CSS in admin options...
  • View and make sure first two options on
  • View and setup css font family no-hover
  • View and setup css font family hover
  • View and setup css link text color
  • View and setup css visited link text color
  • View and setup css float left or right
  • View and setup css padding left or right shift
  • View and setup css background color or transparent
  • View and setup css bottom border color

Step {4}
********
Image paths in admin options...

Edit left and right image paths in admin options...

Default paths below...>>>

Left = images/tabbars/css5_L.gif

Right = images/tabbars/css5_L.gif

If you followed the first four steps and images don't show, you must edit the path above in the Tabbar Suite options... View first step to understand how to link to images folder...

Ok, if you made it here then your images are showing?
If you want to change image sets, edit the path above in options...
How? Edit the numbers only in both paths and your images will change to that number set...

Example: css5_L.gif <<<..... edit the number only {5} to change color sets...


Step {5}
********
Editing tabbars info in admin options...

Making changes to tabbars individually?
  • Start by editing the mouseover tips per tabbar

shlomot,,,
I see your issue,,, Your global var is working fine,,, its your images location thats causing your problem...

To fix your issue,,, all you need to do is upload the images folder TABBARS to your CMPS root...

shlomot,,,
On logout only will it do that,,, don't worry because you don't need the tabbars on logout...
After you have completed your logout within seconds ALL tabbars will return

Let me know how it goes???

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


shlomot,,,
Did you overwrite the old file?

Uninstall tabbarsuite in your product manager and reinstall again...
That should fix it...

I just tested again and all working on several sites...
I recommend that before updating the new file to uninstall the old ver...
Make sure that you re-insert the VAR ...>>> $tabbarsuite in navbar and CMPS if updating from first version...

images to be uploaded to ...>>> forum/images/tabbars/ = images will show up
clientscript to be uploaded to...>>> forum/clientscript/ = dropdowns will show up

If you need more help let me know...


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


Brian30fl,,,
There are 31 different image packs in images folder,,, which type of image do you like in the images pack???

Let me know which type and I will make a couple color sets that match your forum...

Thanks for your dedicated support. I PMed you my site information for your expert diagnosis

At the same time, is there a way to lay the tabs inline with the logo in order not to save on this valuable space? What I'm basically asking is: does it matter in which template the tabbar resides?

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

shlomot,,,
You're back in business my friend...

Actually U had everything in order,,, the only issue was your VAR wasn't placed in navbar template...

HTML Code:
<br />
$tabbarsuite
just above the <!-- breadcrumbs.............................etc...

The global var activates the tabbars in Forumhome and CMPS...
If its not placed,,, NADA,,, NOTHING...

P.S: I changed your tabbars colors 2 match your style...>>> DEMO <<<

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

Brian30fl,,,
Its been a long day,,, but yeah im working on a set of tabbars just 4 - U now...
Give me until late in the evening and I will upload here
...

Er U go Bro...>>>
Also if you check in the pack of 31 tabbars...>>> css6,,,css3,,, and css21 might help...

Dear DeepDog, It takes a lot of vB activity to find developers as professional and minded about their products and services as you!

Thank you for all your support.
