Hornstar, This is not a Bug. it has to be something you have done.

I have got this running perfect on 3.5.4

I would go back and check all your templates.

Marky,

Thanks, for your efforts. This is very useful for many sites.

No pressure, but wondering if you have an estimate when ver 2.0 might be released. I really need the dropdown menus feature.

Im working on vBDiscussion - when that is open, I will be releasing 2.0 on there. So I estimate a couple of weeks.

1.3 installed, but the navbar color changes are not happening for me, I tried putting in the # and taking it out. It is a 3.5.4 board, any help please?

Also with the arcade installed?
Without any further editing?

I'm checking all over again, but when I update menu control from 1.2 (with absolutely the right editing) to v1.3 The menu disappear in both arcade and "new treads, but only if there are no new treads.


Regards,

Pim

Found a solution :squareeyed: , replace $menucontrol in the navbar template with the code from the menu control. :nervous:

I have the arcade installed, the menu control works great, minus the changing color switch, I can not change the color of the links in hte navbar but other than that, it works great.

great mod, thanks.

I did find that to make the links match my various style templates that I removed the references to font colour in the template code though ;)

I did modify addon made by https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=105711 that lets u use it without template modification and uses ur current skins colors. PM ME if you need help or modded files. Its up to date with the 1.3 release posted in this tread..

Can I add NAVBAR POPUP MENUS into 1 item?

Can I make a suggestion?

Rather than just allowing the colour to be changed. Allow people to add their own html styling. You know usergroup titles can have html styling and is provided by having two text boxes that allow you to enter begin and end tags?

So have two boxes for the begin and end tag that could allow someone to do something like this:


FIRST BOX:
<span style="color:FF0000; font-family:arial; font-weight:normal;">

SECOND BOX:
</span>


That way you aren't just allowing them to change the colour of that menu item but the whole style of it.

Those two values would obviously be added either side of the link text and url.

If you need any help with this then let me know.

I have a question, I read thru all the pages and didn't see it answered.

I have 5 links I'm using, don't need all 9 right now. I want to use the image function but when I turn the image function it adds the red X for the link I'm not using. I have the other 4 links (6-9) blank, is there a way to use images in the 5 links I'm using without having the X's?

Replied too :)

Wow... I can't believe I've not thought of that! Sorry, this is not included in this version, but I will include it in the next version!

On the same subject, I have decided since I need to add so many new features to this modification, I will be bringing out version 1.4 before I bring out 2.0.
So the next version will be 1.4 Final. You can expect this update to be released just after I have opened vBDiscussion.com.

Thanks,

Instructions for this are included in the zip file :)

Do you mean where you choose what images are on what links? Because each link gets a different image URL link, it is in the admincp options :)

Marky, Thank you for this addon. It has really helped me develop more options for my forums. I have noticed one small problem that I am hoping you can help me with. When you select "New Posts" from the vBulletin navbar and there are no new posts then the additional navbar does not appear. Do you know how I can adjust the code to have the second navbar show up in every instance? Thanks.

marky - quick question...

when you position the new menu at the top of the navbar, it 'doubles up' the border between the menu and the navbar, making that border thicker than the one between the bottom of the navbar and the bottom menu.

any idea how to fix? thanks..

marky - any idea about this? still happens with the newest version. see pic below..

PM me your MSN and I will personally take a look for you as soon as I can. Sorry for the delay.

marky - any idea about this? still happens with the newest version. see pic below..

I'd also like to help you by taking a look at your admincp, so PM me your MSN so we can talk easier ;)

As I've mentioned in my latest post in my Google Banner Manage modification, I have GCSE examinations coming up very fast indeed, and so progress on the next version will continue in about a month, im very sorry for the delay in the update, but Im sure your going to love the new features :p

Thanks,

A quick tip if you are using images and want less than nine links. Create a 1 x 1 pixel transparent gif image and use that for the unwanted links. Make sure there is no text in that link either. Just leave all fields (except for the 1 px image field!) blank. :)
See attached pic.

Good luck with your exams Marky :)

Thanks for coding such a useful plugin. This is definitely one of my fave's. :D

One feature that would be cool (and I'm sure you've thought about it for your next release) would be to have the link opening options on a per link basis instead of global.

Hey guys....
Im not trying to convince you or anything... but comeon - you KNOW in your hearts you want to vote for this modification for mod of the month lol ;)

In other news... support will be a little slow for a bit as for about a month from this day forward, I will be studying hard for my GCSE's, so if you really need help, you would probably get a faster response by contacting me via PM. I will be sure to keep checking vbulletin.org ;)

Thanks,

First of all, I want to commend you on this nicely made hack. Secondly, I have a quick question; namely, is this added menu bar affected by the forum skin?

I was about to ask if it worked in 3.5.4, but then I saw this:
Yes Menu Control works in 3.5.4
So, thanks again!

This is an awesome hack with so much potential. can we get drop-down menus added? I know this was asked before, but I cann find if you have added it to the latest version? With that additon, I will definately install this and vote for it as HotM too.

Sorry for the delay, but Im revising hard for my GCSE's now so support will be slow :p

Anyways, that would be because you haven't added:

$menucontrol

to your navbar template in your new skin :)

Have fun!

Do you mean you installed Menu Control again to get a second menu? If so - this would happen because the variables are the same as the original Menu Control installation. I edited the modification for someone on this forum so that you could install menu control a second time, I've just found the edited xml file. Gimmie a few and I'll post up how to install Menu Control a second time.

How to: Add a third menu to your forums by installing Menu Control Twice

This edit to Menu Control has only been tested on one board, and I am prepared to give support for it. BUT - consider this option as a beta, as in the next version, I will include more stable instructions how to do this...

STEP 1: Upload the attached .xml file (menucontrol-1.3-extended.xml) as a product as you would with Menu Control.

STEP 2: Go to template 'Navbar':

FIND: $menucontrol

ADD BELOW: $menucontrol2

STEP 3: You can now view options for your third menu in vBulletin Options under 'Menu Control 1.3 Extended'.

Thanks,

Marky

Secondly, I need help linking to a person's profile page. Could someone please put in the proper code so that I can copy it and set it up.

Thank you in advance,

What a great hack :bunny: I really love it and I'm really looking forward to the next releases and/or the next version ;)

For the moment there is just one question left. I run vB 3.5.4 with vBEasy Portal. The menu controll bar is placed at the portal-site, but on the portal-site automatically a "forum" link is inserted. Please see the screenshot ...

Can you please help me to get rid of it? :-)

Thanks for helping and thanks for providing us with such great stuff :cool:

Hello and thank you for replying,

where you put "memberprofilehere", what is the code for that? I have tried several and unless I specify one member profile number it does not work. Though, obviously when I specify one person's number everybody get redirected to that page.

Again, Please help.

Excellent job on this. It's awesome.

I only have one request. Is it possible (and this may have been mentioned, so if it has, please forgive me) to make it so each link has a customizable "target=" so that some will open in a new window (_blank) while others are the parent (_parent) or whatever you wish. Rather then just having a single option for all the links.

Again, thanks for the hack, it's very helpful.

That will be in the next version :) Each link will be able to have customizable target windows :)

Not sure what you mean but by memberprofilehere I mean the ID number of the user. For example, mine on vBulletin.org is 60970

So the url for my profile is:
http://www.vbulletin.org/member.php?u=60970

Thanks and hope your enjoying the modifications... If you'd like too I could take a look at your problem and see if I can fix it. Seeing as I've never used that portal software, I couldn't tell you the fix without taking a look.
Just PM me your MSN if you have one :)

Had a thought, If you use this method from the template edit. (Speaking in 3.5x edits.)
2. Go to 'Style Manager' and in the 'Navbar' template:
Find:
<!-- / nav buttons bar -->
Then if you use THIS instead of whats there now...
Add Below:

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, X)">
<else />
$menucontrol
</if>


Replace "X" with your usergroup ID you want to show it, that may work too, Thoughts? I mean it should be good for users who want just 1 usergroup like a "Premium" paid susbscription or a special usergroup to gain access to it. Which on THAT navbar, maybe use it for your special groups content. In theory it should work, Im gonna try later.

UGH, I forgot something important... darn it! The code I gave would mean its checking to see if a user is in group "x" meaning unless you use a "Primary" usergroup system to have users be assigned to either regular usergroup or premium. It wont work. Cause you see, if you make "X" be your regular usergroup, it would mean anyone who is not in that group, would see the 2nd nav bar.

However.. if your like my setup right now... Secondary usergroups would fail on this code... since Registered AND Premium would be flagged... making them fall into the wrong group.

But for those using primary system only.. guess this would work.

As for the can moderate thing. That would mean the variable is only aimed toward a user with a moderate ability, has nothing to do what usergroup they are in.

Your home page is a vba portal.

try putting it in your header instead
start off with it in between <links> then move it to where you like it best.

This also clears the issue with not showing in "new posts"

I am having trouble with this and am not sure if it has been discussed but there are just too many pages to go through.. :surprised:

I have two skins on my site, one for kids and one for adults. Well I have had this installed on the adult skin for a long time with no problems, but today I wanted to add it to the kid skin and now things are messed up and I am not sure how to fix it :confused:
So I removed the extra navbar from the kids skin and when I go back to the adult skin, and want to click on a link in the extra navbar I get "this page cannot be displayed" error page.

I looked at the bottom of the page on the address bar and it shows double the url...

So for Forums it looks like this now:
http ://www.myparentconnection.com/forums/www.myparentconnection.com/forums/ index.php ~minus the spaces ;)

I went into Vboptions and all are typed in correctly so I am not sure how to fix this.

I am running vb 3.5.4, my adult skin is for 3.5.4 and the kids skin I believe is good for either 3.5.4 or 3.6

Can anyone please help me with this?
Thanks :D

I need to find a drop down menu selection solution for my navbar and I've been waiting for several months hoping yours would come out. I currently use this mod and love it but really need the drop downs. If you could just let me know if it is weeks or months away that would be helpful. Thanks again for your work on this.

Thanks much for this hack - it works great on my 3.6.8 forum.

In a future version I would like to see these options:
1) Menu Window option (how menu links open) for EACH link, instead of for ALL (so I can have external links open in another window, and internal links open in the parent window)
2) The ability to choose where the 2nd navbar resides (I know this was an add-on, but it would be nice to have hard-coded in the hack)
3) The ability to sort the display order of the links in a way similar to the forum display (a text box where you enter the link order).
