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

The 3 tabs i added look like they are all pressed all the time no matter which tab i press

vb403

[Veer]

On vb 4.0.3 it can not remove WHAT'S NEW tab, is there any other solution or fix available?

[wIrEs]

Veer, same problem here, it cannot remove the WHAT'S NEW tab, but after playing a bit by going to other pages, the Forums tab also has a bug. I can reproduce this bug simply by going to the calendar.php page, the Forum tab appears.. I am using vb4.0.3
One last thing i noticed is, i agree with mgcom the tabs look like they are all pressed all the time.
waiting for an update.

Uninstalled due to that sneaky "notice" that shows only when you're not logged in.

We are all hoping for an update but the developer seems to have vanished. Ideally this should have been included as default functionality in VB rather than rely on developer's whim to fix update a 'hack'.

I'm thinking of uninstslling it also....

Thanks Johnny.

The main bug for many of us is we can't delete the "Waht's New" tab. I'm sure there a couple more that the previous posters want.
