Agree. The width issue in IE really needs to get resolved.

Also, sometime the dropdown menu gets hidden behind other objects (like some widgets that have scripts). This happens in Firefox and IE.

Otherwise it's a great mod and I do very much appreciate the coder for developing it!

That's very funny since ESPN was one of the major LEADERS in the standards project which you may have heard of (WASP) and refused to cater to IE users, instead feeding them a nice "Upgrade your lame old browser" type message. So you are simply wrong.

That issue (the dropdowns hiding behind some elements) occurs when Flash banners or other media are placed in front of them. There is no way to fix this with dropdowns, except to use a crazy iframe hack which is far too complicated for myself. I suggest not getting too hung up on that problem. The IE problem is worse, and should be addressed. I might fix it if I decide to use this mod, but since the developer is seemingly AWOL (out for a loooong ++++ing lunch break) I am unable to use this. There are simply too many things lacking for my use.

Good luck though peeps. I feel your pain. At least you didn't pay the dude. He took my money and ran for the border it seems.

I think you are missing the wood for the trees; those are just examples quoted by him; the underlying message is still there.

Also, if you are able to, maybe you can try helping the rest of us with the IE7 problem with specific instructions.

Error to report: Once a new tab has been created, when you go to the site and click on it. It takes you to the correct page, but there is no indication that the tab is selected, it stays the same color. Original tabs like Home or Forum show they are selected by the stock line above and gradient over tab.

I am running Version 4.0.5 and I cannot install this product.

#1 Which zip file should I download?
#2 I have downloaded both zip files but I cannot import 'product-evbs_sstab_advanced.xml'. Where is that file? When I import the file that's in the includes subfolder I get an error message 'invalid file.'

Please advise.

Since you ask so nicely, I figured out a fix for the IE7 issue (for some reason IE6 and IE8 are fine).

Search vbulletin-chrome.css template for this line:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

.. and right above it, paste:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Now BOW DOWN AND WORSHIP ME!!! (just kidding)

Now, to the immature jerk who was dissing me for not providing a fix sooner, he can suck my... well, I didn't appreciate the comment. And he IS wrong about big companies. It's the small ones like yours and mine who really can't afford NOT to care about 5% of our users. Hence the fix.

I hope you guys can be a little more tactful in your responses in the future - especially when there's people like me who are willing and able to help if we just get some respect.

This styling stuff isn't so hard if when you have Firebug and IETester.

Cheers!

so from the last posts i realise that there is no support , the mod isnt working well and the coder is gone, so no need bothering myself installing this hack right ?

When I hide the "What's New" tab it just appears back when I go onto vba cmps

[RichieBoy67]

This is an awesome mod and a huge timer saver!! Thank you for your work!!

I would like to use this with a vbadvanced portal. Can you tell me how I can add conditionals to show the forum tab only on the home page and the home page tab only on the forum??

Thanks

Richie, you don't need to use this hack for that. vba already has an option. Can't recall exactly where it is atm, but I use it. There's a thread about it at vba.com.

[RichieBoy67]

I think that option only works if you are using the cmps_index file as your forum page and I am not. I know exactly what you are talking about but it will not work in this situation.

Thanks though,

Rich

I have installed the product and it is outstanding. The instructions to install the product are not precise however. It's always awkward communicating effectively to nontechnical individuals, i.e., non-programmers. If I recall it has to do with a particular file not being specifically named and needed to be uploaded. I think the file name begins with product.

Thank you. Great product!
