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:

Shazz,,,
I've setup on my testboard and online server,,, and Im not seeing that error message.
Sorry,,, but I'm very busy with many concerns at home... What I will do is work on adding better IE,FF,Opera,Netscape and Safari support... Stay tuned


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


Manick,,,
Your problem with links?

It's probably the dropdowns affecting links...
Try turning dropdowns off or edit out all dropdown's in options...
Uninstall & Reinstall,,, that might do the trick...

http://www.vbadvanced.com/products.p...fo&productid=4

and this is no silly question.
vbadvanced needs some configurations which weren't in the mod some time ago.

It works in the forum, vbadvanced and photoshop - as far as I can see and I have tested it.

it isnt the dropdown links this has issues on vbadvanced - some links do not work even when linked correctly but as soon as you deactivate dropdown they work, in other words the standard links via the tab will work when dropdowns are deactivated but things go strange when dropdown is activated even when they are correct....................
