[HELP] MyBB Tabbed Forum
#1
Alright well I recently installed the Tabbed Forum plugin, but I'm having a little trouble with it. I've gone over the trouble shooting guide on mybbcentral. I have a staff tab and the categories are set to private, but it's the last tab. My problem is when guests and regular members try to view a tab, other categories show up in tabs they shouldn't. For staff members and VIP members it shows up just fine like they should.

How can I fix this? What did I do wrong lol?

Thanks, all and any help is greatly appreciated.

Sorry if it doesn't really make sense, but you can see what I mean at my site: http://versx.info.

Oh I see your problem. It looks like you've missed a </div> off somewhere. Refer back the the help document on MyBBCentral. I can't remember exactly which template you need to edit.

Thank you for the reply Sam, I've gone over this thread http://mybbcentral.com/thread-2439.html and it looks like I've done what it says I should do. If you could try and remember which template I need to edit, I would be most appreciative.

Thanks again.

I think it might be "forumbit_depth1_cat" add
Code:
<div id="tabmenu_{$forum['fid']}">
to the beginning and
Code:
</div>
right at the end.

If it's not that then I'm not sure.

Yeah I have both of those in there, already. I looked at this other thread http://www.mybbcentral.com/thread-5528.html and it says
Quote:Question : The tabs are not working for members, but for Staff it works great?
Solution : Hidden forums can not be at the top. (Labrocca's answer made easy)

So I need to make another forum for the category that everyone can see I'm guessing? Do you know if there's a way to make a whole tab hidden or is that not possible?

I've never used or tried to make hidden tabs, if I add staff sections then they're just hidden forums at the bottom of the main tab.

Alright, good. I was about to offer you some support. I used to have this problem. Then I started to catch on to what I was doing and I finally learned.
If you need help with MyBB I will be more than glad to help you out. Just let me know.

It was an edit to the "cat" template, and you needed to add </div> at the very end.

If your willing to spend 10 bucks you can get the membership from http://www.mybbcentral.com/

It also comes with over 20 mods and themes, so id suggest that

I know that was already said but i just wanted to add onto that
