[TH] Forum List Tabs [Deleted]

[Jon W]

John,

Is it possible to use this option to show the full category lists still, but have tabs for different languages. For instance, I'm working on a site which is international. I'd like the primary forums to be English, but a Tab, linking to their French and German equivalents - to limit the need for scrolling.

I'm not quite sure what you are asking, but if you want to show some of the same forums under multiple tabs then this is not currently possible.

I am looking to move the Use Tab Mode form to beneath the forum listing, or next to the style/skin selector in the footer. Is it just a matter of finding/changing to a different hook location?

I might also see about nudging the CSS for responsive view--the tabs stack on top of each other on a smartphone, even though I used very short tab titles.

The easiest thing to do would be to try and move it using CSS. Failing that, you may be able to do it the way you suggest.

I would have to get the DIV for that to display below the forum list container.

I might try mucking around in the new template modification system to see what I can do.

What would be a nice option would be to have it in the user options menu, although some of our more "challenged" members might not be able to find it. I may see about making the default choice for it to be unchecked--that would be an easy modification.

How can I have the tabs option set to unchecked by default? Some folks really like the tab view but many prefer the traditional view.

 

[Jon W]

Run the following database query to change all current users to have it set to traditional view:

UPDATE xf_user_option SET use_forum_tabs = 0

Run the following database query to change the default for new users to traditional view:

ALTER TABLE xf_user_option CHANGE `use_forum_tabs` `use_forum_tabs` TINYINT UNSIGNED DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL

Note that this code will need to be run every time you update the add-on with a new version as it will automatically be overwritten by the add-on installer.

Don't know if this has been "reported" or even if it's a bug however, when I created a forum, not in a category, all the tabs reverted back to list view, till I deleted the forum or put it in a category.

This is as designed.

Hello, today I've been fixing my forums up, changing colors, etc. Well, I ran into a small problem. I can't figure out how to change the background color of the circled objects in the picture attached. Would anyone happen to know how to do this?

Thanks in advance,
BrittonG.

Hello, Xenforo users. I have a question about the add on, "Forum List Tabs by Waindigo". I can't seem to find out how to change the background image/color of the category tabs. Also, when I click on a tab, the forum under it, how can I make it wider?


Thanks for the help in advance,
BrittonG.

Please post your forum URL so I can debug your style.

Not the best at Xenforo, yet. Still trying to figure it all out.

Add something like the following to your EXTRA.css template:

.forumListTabs .tabs li a
{
background-color: red;
}

Would anyone happen to know how to edit all of the stuff under the tabs & slide the tabs over to right more? Also, thanks Waindigo.

To slide them over to the right, try adding something like this to your EXTRA.css template:

.tabs.forumListTabs {
padding-left: 40px;
}
