To use tabs on only forum categories, delete the following files: index_body_stat_blocks_after.html, index_body_stat_blocks_before.html, the includejs whois.js line in overall_header_head_append.html after the statement indicating where the stat blocks codes begin.

To use tabs on only the who is online/birthdays/statistics, delete the following files: forumlist_body_category_header_before.html, index_body_forumlist_body_after.html, the index_body_markforums_after.html and the includejs forumtabs.js line in overall_header_head_append.html after the statement indicating where the forum category tabs begin.

Can I just point out that underscores are not allowed in any part of the extension name - see here

Also you are using an incorrect method to include css in the templates - see here

This is just alpha, I'll fix all the standard conventions before taking it into Beta. Thanks for the reminder.

I will compare how that one was setup with this one to see what the differences are that might better this ext.

The index tabbed mod didn't organize the categories into tab (there's already an ext for that)...it organized the who is online/statistics/birthdays/etc into tabs

I'll recycle codes from this ext to make one for that as well once I have it functioning how I'd prefer it to.

I should have another version of this ext up later today.

Version 1.0.3
Updates include corrected ext name, and updated css/js inclusion paths. Includes tabs for who is online, birthdays and statistics. Includes activetab css, along with improved template conditionals for including the necessary jquery and css only on the index.

You'd want to look in the root/ext/vipaka/styles/all/theme/index_tabbed.css file and edit the CSS there to fit your style.

This is an extension that I have been looking for but, unfortunately, it does not work on my test board - although that may be due to a conflict with other unstable extensions that I have installed.

I appreciate that this is still very much a "work in progress" but I would just like to make a few observations:

• The packaging of the extension is wrong - when you unzip it should be vipaka/indextabbed
• The style data should be in prosilver not all as it does not render correctly with non subsilver based styles
• You need to have a language file as hard coded language is not allowed (it is in index_body_stat_blocks_before.html)
• In phpBB 3.1 js is loaded in the footer not the header

I would like to see an option to have either categories tabbed and/or statistics - or split them into two extensions

I'm not sure what the packaging unzips as at the moment but I'll take a look and see if I can correct it soon.
Since there is already an existing category in tabs ext, I plan on leaving this one as an entire "Index" in tabs alternative. I did add up additional information to the first post for how to isolate tabs for just categories or just the whois/birthday/statistics. Adding an acp to this ext just for the sake of disabling/enabling one or the other seems a bit excessive for such a lightweight ext.
I will definitely replace the common lang vars for that HTML file, good eye.
I am not certain since I haven't tested it, but I believe the jquery for this ext will only work if called in the header before the tabs are appended to the page. I will double check this.
The final version will likely be /all styles with an alternate prosilver css file (the current one). Its an issue I'm very aware of and still trying to find a good workaround for.

jQuery is only loaded in the footer and from my limited experience with jQuery scripts will not run until it is loaded.

Maybe but editing and/or deleting files from an extension is not the way to go. There is the issue of upgrading the version where users will overwrite any changes that they may have made and also it would probably never get past validation.

It just unzips the files to the master directory

You did not understand me. I made a tab before entering your extension.
And he showed his version.

I'm still not sure I understand. You made your own css/tabs for your own forum, not an ext for creating tabs from that area. What does this have to do with this ext?

[tamarin]

I have this error:

Code: Select all

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class vipaka\index_tabbed\ext in /home4/xyxy/public_html/xyxy/ext/vipaka/indextabbed/ext.php on line 18

Can you help me please?
Thank you in advance.
