Miscellaneous Hacks - [YUI] Animation Effects

It's Function:

• Adds fade-in effect to all popup menus
• Adds slide-up/down effect to all collapsible blocks

(Applies to all pages including any custom mod)

Demo:
see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ww3P1aqb1Y

Installation:

• Upload the content in 'upload' folder
• Import the product available in zip file

Side Notes:
This mod uses YUI Animation utility available on all vBulletin installations
On Forum Home page, sidebar uses this utility already, when this product is enabled, it will avoid duplicate calls for the same utility by removing the call made by sidebar

How to upgrade:
From 1.00 to 1.1.1

• Uninstall the previous version (required so we can get rid of the extra template)
• Import the product

From 1.1 to 1.1.1

• Re-import the product overwriting the existing one

Update Log:
Version 1.1.1

Corrected path to YUI Animation utility in plugin

Version 1.1

There is no need for an extra template file anymore, "headinclude_javascript" is being used now

Note: if you are using Remote YUI setup, you better keep version 1.00 and don't upgrade, or manually edit the plugin to correct the path to YUI Animation utility

Just an FYI, I don't see any issues with this on 3.8.4 menus seem to have a bit more spunk opening.

Thanks.

Thanks.

so it is somehow compatible with 3.8. too, sweet

I haven't tested it myself on 3.8, I got vB about 2 years ago and haven't had time to upgrade my board yet (i know its a long time and the actual reason is my laziness lol), still running some other system and just preparing to finally make the migration directly to vB4

did you read the mod details to see what it does? did you check the demo?
by not understanding the changes, do you mean it is not working on your site? if not what browser are you using, what's the operating system (it matters) and finally can you share the URL to your site so others can check as well

By the way, guys I have tested this mod on IE7, IE8, FF3.5, Safari latest (WIN), Chrome latest, iPhone's Safari and it works just fine, if there are any incompatible browser, let me know

cheers

well checking with Chrome and FF3.5 on W7 64Bit it's working fine on your site, can't you see the fade effect on popup menus or slow scroll up on blocks when you collapse them? normally they just appear or disappear (instantly)

Does this have a negative impact on SEO since it adds a lot of javascript and obviously search bots can not read/see Java?
