Profile Question in vb 3.7

[edytwinky]

I'm contemplating making the upgrade to 3.7 and was wondering if I can keep member profiles the same.

I'm not a big fan of the tabbed version that is the default. Can I keep it the same as 3.6.8?

Possibly disable in vBulletin Options > User Profile Options these settings:

Friends
Enable Visitor Messaging
Albums
Visitor Tracking
Profile Styling

^^ That still keeps the tabbed look just removes those sections.

edytwinky,
Do you want to take advantage of any of the new features such as whats listed the post above? The reason Im asking is that if you do not, you can keep the old profiles but you will need to update a few sections manually to get the information to show up.
But if you want to use those features and just remove the tabs you can do that as well and display all of the information in blocks or even use one of the many mods available now to make the profiles look like facebook or myspace.

I just don't want the tabs. I'd rather have it in the "blocks" you are talking about.

If thats all you want, after you update go to AdminCP ->Styles and Templates -> Style Manager -> Member Info Templates -> MEMBERINFO

In that template find

	<div id="profile_tabs">
		$template_hook[profile_left_first]
		$blocks[visitor_messaging]
		$blocks[aboutme]
		$blocks[stats]
		$blocks[friends]
		$blocks[infractions]
		$blocks[contactinfo]
		$template_hook[profile_left_last]
	</div>

Right below that will be this code....

	<script type="text/javascript">
	<!--
	vBulletin.register_control("vB_TabCtrl", "profile_tabs", "$selected_tab", "&raquo;", "profile.php?u=2&do=loadtab&tabid={1:tabid}");
	//-->
	</script>

^Delete that and it will not show up as tabs anymore... But to warn you its pretty ugly that way to. If you do not want tabs I would look at some of the changes made in some of the Myspace/Facebook mods and try to create a better looking profile.
