Template Edits: 2
Difficulty: Easy


Description:
You can add links or multiple menus to the navbar quickly through a form. Specify which usergroups can see each link via the permissions system.


F.A.Q.
Q: Why aren't the links showing?
A: Edit the link in your Admin CP and check the usergroup permissions

Q: All the links I made from the last version are gone
A: Go into phpmyadmin and select your vbulletin database.
Browse the table named "custom_droplinks". Change all the "catid's" with 0 to 1.
Go into your ACP --> Advanced Navbar Links --> Modify/Delete The links should show up under the first category. You can edit the links from here and select a different category to place it in.

Q: How do I get the links to appear on vBAdvanced?
A: Go into your ACP --> vBa CMPS --> Default Settings
Look for "Portal Output Global Variables". Add the following into the text area.

custom_singlelinks
custom_droplinks
custom_droplinks_cat




If you install this mod please press the "Install" button.

--Change Log--
1.0.0 - Initial Release

1.0.1 - took out the code that automatically added HTML to the navbar. I thought having it do it automatically was cool but can be annoying because you can't easily customize the class or placement

2.0.0 - Added the functionality to add multiple drop down menus

2.0.1 - Added missing table prefixes

Some of you may know this hack from 3.5.x. When I first created this hack I slowly worked out the bugs. Let us pray that this hack runs smoothly on the 3.6 branch.
In the thread for the 3.5.x hack some members demanded usergroup permissions, seperators, and multiple drop down boxes. Well I didn't know how to go about it. I did however deliver on the usergroup permissions a few days ago but I have a feeling they're not going to be as excited as much as if I released closer to when they asked for it.

[Atakan KOC]

Nice. :)

[sam anders]

nice feature will install :)

[Snake]

Very nice! Thank you... :)

[harmor19]

I would like to improve this hack by adding user defined seperators to the drop down box.
Please read this thread (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=120524)

[harmor19]

I do not need help with with the seperators anymore because I have figured out how to do it.

What you can do is create a seperator and apply usergroup permissions to it.
So you could create a seperator called "Staff Links" and only allow admin, s-mods, and mods see it.
Then under the seperator have a link to the "Admin CP" and only allow admins to see the link.
I'll try to illustrate it for you people

[Staff Links] <-- Only viewable by Admins, S-Mods, and Mods
[Admin CP] <-- Only viewable by Admins
[ModCP] <-- Only viewable by S-Mods and Mods
[Fun Links] <-- Viewable by everyone
[Arcade] <-- Viewable by everyone except guests and banned users

I am coding everything I need to and I'll ship it out as soon as I'm sure it works correctly.

[Tyegurl]

thanks a bunch been looking for a way to do this kind of thing!

i am running beta 4 and i got nothing :( i have a "extra" button and then and "extra" header but no links.....i added them but they do not show

[harmor19]

Both "Stand Alone" and "Drop Down" links aren't showing?

[dwbro1]

mine either .. :(

Update:

It does show on the nav on the forums but not on the main vbadvanced page.. hmm

BTW can you assign multiple drop downs and stack links under them?

[harmor19]

You can only have one drop down menu but I'm planning on adding multile drop down menus as soon I figure out how to do seperators.

So they both work on the forums though?

[harmor19]

mine either .. :(

Update:

Try this
In your CMPS settings under Portal Output Global Variables place:
custom_droplinks
custom_singlelinks

[Neal-UK]

didn't appear to be working properly in 3.6 rc1

Just got the drop down "Extras" on navbar and nothing showing in AdminCP.

[XtremeOffroad]

Seems fine with RC1 but links wont open in a new window even when checked to.
Any Ideas?
BTW nice addition, Thanks.
Clicks Install.

When you click on the background the link is on it'll open on the same page. I don't know how to get around that.

[TropicalFanta]

When I Uploaded The Files Then Added The XML Plugin It Kept Putting A Drop Down List Called 'Extras' In The Nav Bar Which Cant Be Edited Or Removed

[harmor19]

It's supposed to. That's where the links will go.

[I-Web]

Really love this one so much so i have nominated it for Mod Of The Month

[blawson12]

Everything works fine for me except the Extra dropdown.
Its not on the Modify/Delete page. :-/

I followed all instructions. Any ideas?

[Staxed]

the option to open links in a new window isn't working properly for me, and also sometimes when i click the links i've added it logs me out...but not always...

[Neo_Angelo]

i'd like one like this only it creates a new navbar below the current on where i could add links and drop down menu's. that would be awsome ^_^

[geovadim]

I can't find from where to add custom links in the navbar.

[Boinger]

how do i change teh extra text? for the drop down menu?

[harmor19]

how do i change teh extra text? for the drop down menu?

Search in the phrases.

[Boinger]

which phrases ?

i have searched in the templates and the product manager code i cant quite find it?

[aggiefan]

I would personally like to use this to manage all the links on my navbar.... not just one "extra" dropdown. the ability to create more than one dropdown would be much nicer.

[ctrl-alt-del]

I just installed this hack. Very nice. Thank you!

[ctrl-alt-del]

Same here...the option to open the link in a new window doesn't work. It just opens the link in the same window.

This is because vBulletin added something to one of their js files.

[b6gm6n]

Is this supposed to auto-edit the navbar template for you? - the install instructions don't indicate this... im using an old version from vB3.5.4 which was working... untill i reverted the template of course... then i thought good... the install instructions don't say about editing the navbar template... i'll upload... still nothing, i'll re add the code below to my navbar...but im sure i saw no drop downs...only the link to start it... maybe i need to refresh something...


<!-- CUSTOM -->
<td id="custom_links" class="vbmenu_control"><a href="#custom_links">$vbphrase[custom_links_link]</a> <script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("custom_links"); </script></td>
$custom_singlelinks
<!-- CUSTOM -->

[b6gm6n]

I see that the template does get added automagically... my problem was permissions and not uploading the latest files (doh) then for some reason the 'link_perms' field wasn't being added to my database and causing errors when i try to enter permission values for links... added that missing field (it is in your installer but dunno why it didn't work) and alls ok now... and working on my vBa CMPS (with added global variables)

Sorry everyone but I've been distracted by another hack I'm working on.
I may have this hack removed until it's been tested better.

ctrl-alt-del,
I don't know how to get around it.

[ctrl-alt-del]

Thanks Andrew.

By the way, the install version says v1.6.0 when installed as opposed to the listed 1.0.0.

[mschvili]

Hi!
I really like the mod... if it worked! :) It's work perfectly with the Default skin. But I'm using another. Why doesn't it work with that one?

[pauloo]

Thank you

[aycan555]

Hi thank you for your hack, i have installed, it is working succesfully, but i want to open my links in target frames, how can i do that?

[Freakpyromaniac]

I have installed it and it works for 80%.

When i add links in the EXTRA dropdown who are normally in my regular menu and i erase them in the Navbar template then i loose everything. As the extra as some more links (buttons)

And please how can we change extra...


By the way i really love this mod..:cool:

[dan325ci]

Search for "Extras" in phrases. You can change it from there.

[mahakala]

is this project continued?
i'd would be fine if a (line) seperator or toppic (no link) could be entered.
i solved the seperator with an < hr > and an # as link, but it doesn't look fine.
better would be e.g. a simple blue box with text as seperator - like "quick links" in here on top (know what i mean)...

a <div style="width:100%;background-color:darkblue;"><font color=white><b>Bilder</b></font><div>
looks aweful and i can't add enough code, cause it's cut of :(

cu,
thomas

(sorry my bad english)

[ctrl-alt-del]

I noticed permissions only applies to the primary group. Can this be changed to also include additional groups?

As an example,
User: Jake
Primary group = Administrators
Secondary Groups = Registered Users

So if I create a new link and have it only visible to Registered Users, user Jake will not be able to see this link.

[Orphadox]

This mod is a space saver on the navbar.
thanks :D

If you mean "vBa CMPS" go into your Admin CP --> vBa CMPS --> Default Settings
Look for "Portal Output Global Variables" and add "custom_singlelinks" and "custom_droplinks" to the text area.

For all the people that are having problems with links the displaying please check the permissions on the link.

[harmor19]

i can?t find navbar template

Admin CP --> Styles & Templates --> Style Manager --> Edit Templates [in drop down mewnu] --> Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates [double click] --> navbar

[redlabour]

Nice Mod - thanks ! ;)

[karlm]

It's a good mod, but sadly I discoverd it does not work with vbdrupal. The custom link vanishes, and the dropdown menu appears, but it is empty. I've uninstalled it momentarily due to this.

[iTaLiAnBoY165]

Hey has anyone else had this problem its just on one of my templates when i go to click extra nothing comes up??

[harmor19]

Some pages it doesn't work on.
I don't think it works on the "No Permissions" page.

[wrang]

Is it possible to get one more link menu or will it came under the same menu as the first one??

I want a new menu for the new post link and put some more time links

[harmor19]

You can only have one menu.
I'll am currently working on another project so I can't put any time into this one.

[wrang]

Okey thanks for the answer harmor19!!

Whats your new prodject ;)

I would like it on the very left of the navbar before the Usercp or just after the usercp either will work...I moved it in 3.5 but can not find it in the navbar this time....

[NewAlf]

Please explain further.

I added a couple Stand Alone links in the navbar. By default "Extras" is also listed in the navbar. However i only want to use Stand Alones. So now i'm trying to get rid of the "Extras" link in the NavBar to conserve space.

Remove:

Are you using a custom style? If so the designer may have put the navbar in the header template.
What is your site?

[Gnappy]

installed, the "extras" is added in navbar but i cant edit or add any... why?



and a little question: to access the edit page i browse directly www.site.com/admincp/admin_custom_links.php
is this correct or i missed the link menu in my acp?

It should be under "Announcements" in the Admin CP.

What you'll need to do is Open the plugin called "Custom Links" and look for
$search_text = '$vbphrase[calendar]</a></td>';
$vbulletin->templatecache['header'] = str_replace($search_text,
$search_text.fetch_template('customlinks1'),$vbull etin->templatecache['header']);
(It's at the bottom).
Open your navbar template and look for HTML to place the custom links after. Replace $vbphrase[calendar]</a></td> with the HTML you'd like to use. Save the plugin and it should work.

Are you considering it for a future version?
Maybe after I do multiple drop down menus. For some reason I don't feel like doing anything to this hack since I released it. Maybe some time in the future I'll add more features.

[basskiller]

from what i've seen, most users bypass the drop-down links in the nabar..just because they don't see them.
i really like the ease in which this hack works. maybe by adding a second navbar and then using this mod to add links to it??????

AND How to add/delete existing menu in Navbar? :)

[Konstantinos]

anybody got this working in 3.6.4 ?

[ICY ICE]

In your CMPS settings under Portal Output Global Variables place:
custom_droplinks
custom_singlelinks

Thanks harmor19...great hack!

[dcasux]

I love this hack..however, I cannot get the menu options to show up in ibproarcade.

ARCADE template has $navbar as the variable for the default navbar, and I removed that and placed $menucontrol in it's place, hoping that your menu would show up.

Alas, it didn't. Well, actually, the "Extras" showed up, but empty. No links showed up that are defined by me in your module in the ACP.

Any ideas on how to get consistancy in ibproarcade with your hack?

Hi All

Same problem over here. Is ther somebody who can help me out. In vbPortal I had the same problem but that's already solved by adding the entire content of the global_start plugin to the global.php of the portal. But I don't see how to solve this problem. The main links show up at the arcade but the added links aren't visible.

Is there anyone who can help me out?

Thanks in advance!

[criscokid]

In vbPortal I had the same problem but that's already solved by adding the entire content of the global_start plugin to the global.php of the portal.
That's the problem that I've been trying to solve... more detailed instructions are available here (http://www.phpportals.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17634).

[TrikkeTalk]

Hi,

It's quite simple to do this:

Go to your AdminCP --> Plugins & Products --> Plugin Manager --> locate the Custom Links global_start plugin.

Copy al the content of this plugin and paste it to you vbPortal's global.php. the location to paste it is right above:

// get new private message popup

That's it.

[BSchrader]

The forms in the screenshot are beautiful things but I cannot find them in vB3.6.4. How do I get them? (Do I need vBPortal?)

Hiya guys,

Can someone tell me the proper way to uninstall this mod? I could not get this mod to work on my forum so I used the "Uninstall" button in the manage products section. It appeared to uninstall properly and the product name disappeared from the product list yet the "Custom Links" CP is still there. When I click on either "Add" or "Modify/Delete", I get the following database error message.

try this:

open /arcade/functions/functions.php
search for global $header, $vbphrase, $vboptions, $stylevar, $headinclude, $bbuserinfo, $session, $show, $pmbox;
and replace it with global $header, $vbphrase, $vboptions, $stylevar, $headinclude, $bbuserinfo, $session, $show, $pmbox, $custom_droplinks;

What templates do you edit if your navbar settings is in the header?

I tried to do it in the navbar but doesn't show up

[Travlur]

I have 3.6.5
I installed as per your install txt file.
I get the extras on my forum navigation bar.
But there is nowhere I can find in admin to define / add those extra links.
I have read the entire thread.
I have seen other people say they can not find where to do this.
You just seem to say "Make sure you vave uploaded the cpnav_custom_links.xml file"
I have done this.
I can not find a single easy to understand reply to say how I now add / edit extra links.
How do I add the links?????
RSVP
:(

[harmor19]

When you uploaded "cpnav_custom_links.xml" to your "admincp" directory you should see "Custom Links" above "Forums & Moderators". in your Admin CP.

[Travlur]

Thanks, you are right, it is there and thank you.
But unless you know to look there, it may sound sill but....
I followed every piece of information on this thread but may I say if you just added this little line / perl of wisdom in your install notes, it would have saved me 3 hours and 20 Hail Mary's.

[Travlur]

Ok, very good, thank you.
Is it possible to change the name in the navbar from "Extras" to something else?
If this has been asked and answered before just say "Look back" and I will tomorrow as it late here now and time for zzzzzzzzzzz

It's a phrase. If you don't know how to change the phrase it's been discussed in past posts.

[JamieLee2k]

So any help with my question, I have edited the header and since I have a fixed style it looks well out of sync and very bad as the images don't look right

[Travlur]

Hi

If you add the directions to where to add links etc. (I was looking vB options and plugins areas for hours) and how to edit the "extras" name (OK< so I am new to vB, but I think many here are) in the install notes, I will vote 5/5. If you don't, I would only vote 3/5 because it clearly is not easy to do these things based on previous posts, not just mine.

[Terminatoronly]

Good Work Installed :D

Log into your ACP
On the left look for "Languages & Phrases", click the "down" arrow.
Click on "Search in Phrases".
In the "Search for Text" box type "custom_links_link".
A couple rows below are three options, select "Phrase Variable Name Only".
Click "Find".

You should see search results.
Click "Edit".
In the text area type the word you want to replace "Extras" with.

[rickyreter]

Okay having a go installing mod...:)

[harmor19]

I like to have your suggestions.
I'm upgrading this hack so you can create unlimited number of drop down menus.
My question is "Do you want each drop down menu to have their own independent usergroup permissions"?

The way I have the new version coded is that each menu has their own usergroup permissions then the links in the menus have their usergroup permissions of their own.

[rickyreter]

Yes separate would be good as a option..i have used drop down menus but not this mod i have done my own...but find that guest would like content too.
Either way is good.

Peter:D

[harmor19]

What's new in 2.0.0?


You can create an unlimited number of drop down menus.
Each menu has their own independent usergroup permissions.
Each link within each menu also has their have their own usergroup permissions.


Changed Files
* All of them

If you are upgrading please read "upgrade.txt".

[rickyreter]

Can u set it so all can see menus,as when i set it up for admin on a test menu,when u went to a link on menu it was not there on navbar?

How do do you set it up so all people including guest can see menus...if you go here demo (http://www.cartalkuk.co.uk) and click one link on test menu,it disappears on navbar menu ?

[harmor19]

To have the menu display to everyone go to ACP --> Advanced Navbar Links --> Add Menu
In the area listing all the usergroups select all the usergroups.

I can see "Gallery" in the "test" menu if you were wondering if guests could see it.

I don't know why the link doesn't show up on PhotoPlog. I don't have it installed at this time.

[giovannicosta]

In ACP --> Advanced Navbar Links I have no field names to fill in just the fields.

This is the mod you should use or update depending on if you have it installed or not.

All the links should be in the table. You'll have to edit "custom_droplinks" table and look for "catid".

I believe you have to edit vBCMPS in your ACP and add a couple variables.

I sent updates when I upgraded to 2.0.0 but not when I upgraded to 2.0.1. The reason is because not that many people downloaded 2.0.0 when I made the upgrade to 2.0.1

[b6gm6n]

Right... im happy so far but if anything else go's wrong im leaving (said the vicar to the hoar)... right... well all my links went poof, gonna have to start again... still no info on image paths... not all would know and if you do post a full url/path your menu stops... (haven't tried a /home/public_blah blah blah yet) - menu from portal front page is gone as is the IPB arcade... global vars were in place and still are in place... still battling on with those links... should be ok...in time, cheers

[b6gm6n]

i take that back...you cant add an image... whats the format? all this pratting around after getting all my links dev_nulled is annoying me... cheers

ahh you can't just add an image and go... you also have to choose who sees the link also... ok fair enough, i'll remember that for next time

actually does that mean that everytime you want to move a menu up or down you now have to reselect the usergroups?...

Yes. I could have done it differently but that would mean adding the code that generates the usergroups in multiple locations.

Thanks.

Were you able to find the links that you said were removed in the table "custom_droplinks"?
If so and you don't know how to edit make them reappear on the navbar just tell me and I'll write a guide. Actually I need to write a guide for this anyways.

I wrote this quickly.
Go into phpmyadmin and select your vbulletin database.
Browse the table named "custom_droplinks". Change all the "catid's" with 0 to 1.
Go into your ACP --> Advanced Navbar Links --> Modify/Delete The links should show up under the first category. You can edit the links from here and select a different category to place it in.

[rickyreter]

You mean separators? You can't do that in this version.

[redlabour]

I believe you have to edit vBCMPS in your ACP and add a couple variables.

Definetly not - you have to add a GLOBAL Variable to your Hack like all other Hacks do - and by the Way - it worked before the Update.

[harmor19]

[How-To] Get links to work in vBAdvanced.

Go into your ACP --> vBa CMPS --> Default Settings
Look for "Portal Output Global Variables". Add the following into the text area.

custom_singlelinks
custom_droplinks
custom_droplinks_cat

[rickyreter]

Just had quick look and you could put:

<tr><td class="thead">Whatever</td></tr> in the name on add a link if you want a seperator it does show up a small table error but nothing to worry about..... for me anyway...:) Just back things up

see under gallery and video demo (http://www.cartalkuk.co.uk)menu

And if u try to re-create it, u can't.

Perhaps is in the old db!, plz fix!

Did you set the usergroup permissions when creating the links?

I don't know if this has been brought up yet...but when you go to edit a menu (I haven't tried individual links yet), it won't let you. When you click edit, you edit it to your likings, then you click save, it tells you that the name is already in use... So the changes don't take place :(

You may have to check "header" template for the first edit and "navbar" for the second edit.

Hi.. did anyone fix the ipbarcade and vbadvanced not showing bug? - it was working before, the same global variables are in place, i believe i haven't touched the arcade although i did insert the global variable there also... please advise

EDIT: i get it

custom_singlelinks
custom_droplinks
custom_droplinks_cat

I must add that 'cat' on to the arcade also i believe :)
(got to work out how i did that before also :D)

[AzzidReign]

AzzidReign,
I'll fix the problem and upload the new files soon.
Thanks. Also, I don't know if it's possible, but when clicking edit, could you make it so it shows what groups are selected instead of having to re-select them. OR, instead of selecting them, use check boxes (I think this would be best).

Thanks. Also, I don't know if it's possible, but when clicking edit, could you make it so it shows what groups are selected instead of having to re-select them. OR, instead of selecting them, use check boxes (I think this would be best).
Ok. I will later tonight.

Update: 2.0.2
When you edit a menu or link the usergroups selections do not reset.
I have changed the usergroup multi-select form to checkboxes.
I have cached the "custom_droplinks_cat" template.

Working great, I much prefer the Checkbox options.

One little suggestion, Would it be possible to have note on the "Edit Links & Menus" screen to tell us if the link opens in a new window or not?
The reason I ask is that I inputted a lot of links into this update and then found that some opened in a new browser as I'd forgotten to edit that bit....so then had to go through every link to check....Not important, just a suggestion :) :D

Does it delete my Links again at Updating or did you fix this Bug this Time?

I just updated from 1.0.1 to 2.0.2, and all my links are gone. I have to add it again.

Ok - but what about a Update from 2.0.x to 2.0.2 ?

Go into phpmyadmin and select your vbulletin database.
Browse the table named "custom_droplinks". Change all the "catid's" with 0 to 1.
Go into your ACP --> Advanced Navbar Links --> Modify/Delete The links should show up under the first category. You can edit the links from here and select a different category to place it in.

It won't delete the links.

You rock!

I know I keep pumping out suggestions...I hope you don't mind me suggesting 1 more (for the time being lol).

In the edit menu where you can see all the menus and links you can edit, for all the links inside the menu, can you show the display order of those and be able to change them there like you would changing the display order for styles and templates? That would be helpful, at least for me since I always forget to add links and I like certain links at the top and others near the bottom, etc.

Thanks!

Just had quick look and you could put:

<tr><td class="thead">Whatever</td></tr> in the name on add a link if you want a seperator it does show up a small table error but nothing to worry about..... for me anyway...:) Just back things up

see under gallery and video demo (http://www.cartalkuk.co.uk)menu

class="thead" should be integrated in a new version ;)

i got a similar problem. when i modify a link and save, it tells me saved sucessfuly, but nothing saved. this only happens to stand-alone links editing.

I don't know if this has been brought up yet...but when you go to edit a menu (I haven't tried individual links yet), it won't let you. When you click edit, you edit it to your likings, then you click save, it tells you that the name is already in use... So the changes don't take place :(

Thank you for this hack! I've already vote it 5* and mark as installed!


Can you help me out how to use this with the style : dark_vb_v2 , it use button image instead of text link on the navbar.


I only use your hack to make new dropdown menus, so I created a new button called "LiveScores"



This is the darkvbv2 navigation-bar code :
Dropdown Search menu:

<td id="navbar_search"><a href="$show[nojs_link]#navbar_search"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/link_search.gif" border="0" alt="" /></a><script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("navbar_search" ,1); </script></td>



And this is my code to make it possible with the style (with the old version of Advanced Navbar Links - 1.6.0):
<td id="custom_links"><a href="#custom_links"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/link_custom.gif" border="0" alt="" /></a><script type="text/javascript"> vbmenu_register("custom_links"); </script></td>


---> But the problem is : it only display the button with the menu_open.gif image, it has no function as the search menu! and even a little fall out of the navbar images row!

Please have a look at this image :

Can you plz help me figuring out this problem?

Many thanks!!!!
