Hi folks,
I have some custom pages which complement our forum. They exist in the same domain but one-folder over from the forum. I.e. avforums.com/forums/ avforums.com/reviews/.
And I include global.php already for user identification.
But I would like to have a completely new vBulletin powered menu in the custom pages. I want to have this because I am assuming that re-using vBulletin menu objects will be efficient. And, of course, it will function the same.
I have checked the articles section already but can't find anything I can use.
Can anyone help, please?
Many thanks.

Thanks Lynne, but that article shows how to add drop-downs to the existing navbar.
I need to know how to put a navbar in a completely new, external page.
I will need to include certain scripts and create a template I expect. That is somewhat beyond me without a pointer in the right direction.

It the same idea anywhere. Are you making a totally new navbar or ?? Have you read these articles - How to create your own vBulletin-powered page! (uses vB templates) (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=62164) or [How-To] vBulletin API Basics: Creating Custom Pages & Misc. (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=98009)
