The original mod was created years ago for the wBB (Woltlab Burning Board) and was called "Advanced Forum Header".

This Mod will install an advanced navbar with user and forum informations.
The user have the ability to choose between the "default" and "advanced" navbar into his UserCP.

This mod needs code changes and adds a few queries for every page in the forum.
Take a look into the READ.ME for the code changes (it will add a HOOK in the fetch_template function).

FAQ's
All my users should have the advanced navbar for default.
Answer: Open the product.xml and locate the installcode. You will found a default value '0'. Simply change it into '1' und install the product.

How can I add more navbar's?
Answer: The advanced navbar template is called "afn_navbar_1". Simply create a template (for example: "afn_navbar_2") and place it into the product.
Next take a look into the template "afn_usercp_option". You will found an option menu like this:
<option value="0" $afn[0]>$vbphrase[afn_navbar_chooser1]</option>
<option value="1" $afn[1]>$vbphrase[afn_navbar_chooser2]</option>
You need to change those option into:
<option value="0" $afn[0]>$vbphrase[afn_navbar_chooser1]</option>
<option value="1" $afn[1]>$vbphrase[afn_navbar_chooser2]</option>
<option value="2" $afn[2]>my 3rd navbar</option>
All navbar templates needs a unique number at it's end ("afn_navbar_X"). Where X is the option number.

Awesome... I love it. I wish you could choose [easily] what you wanted to show in this, but its great.

Question though,
How do I get rid of the question mark that follows my name?

An image say more than words.

If fixed it - simply overwrite the product.

Sorry, I don't use those mods. That's why I can't figure it out.

I don't know this. All I can say is, that I have a lot "older" wBB Mods.

And it's very simple to convert into vB :D

I really like this, but I'll wait untill it's really fixed with the hook system and no file edits are necessary anymore.
Furthermore it would be nice to have configmenu where you can choose which should be default, if users can choose navbar on/off.
