I am a semi-novice when it comes to vBulletin & iWeb, hence my ask for help. In other words, I'm programmer illiterate. ;)

I own the license to my vBulletin 4.1.0 level 2.

I also own the iWeb template. The iWeb is my first try and I have already added contents.

To give you an idea, this is what I want to do.....

On the vBulletin, the navigation bar tabs: "Home", "Forum", "Blogs", What's New?" are what is currently labeled.

I want to rename the "Home" to "Current Happenings".

Then I want to move all of the navigation bar tabs to the right by adding one new tab which I'd like to label as "Home". This "Home" would be the iWeb published site that I created.

FYI - my iWeb do have a few navigation bar tabs, filled with contents. I don't know if this part matters to you all.

How do I manipulate the navigation bar tabs?

How do I get the iWeb contents linked onto my vBulletin? I tried multiple times with no success. I'm thinking perhaps I simply need to link iWeb onto the vBulletin navigation bar tag?

Please advise & I thank those who are willing to spend time and effort explaining to me.

Ok - worked this out

In adim control

go to settings > options > site name/ulr/contact details > CMS Component URL

set that to the url of your iWeb site

then make sure that plugins and products > manage products > vbulletin CMS - set to enabled

worked for me anyway !
