Well you would need to add them to the navbar template manually.

Or you could use this mod, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=274972

Or you could upgrade to v4.2.2 Patch Level 1 and use the Navigation Manager to add links.

I don't mind editing the postbit_legacy or postbit manually but i don;t know what part of the code to edit?

Wait, I said postbit_legacy or postbit template, that should be navbar.

Anyhow, you look for this bit of code in the navbar template:

{vb:raw template_hook.navbar_quick_links_menu_pos2}

Then after that you add your custom links, like so:

<li><a href="WHERE YOU WANT THEM TO GO" rel="nofollow">TEXT FOR THEM TO CLICK ON</a></li>

I don't seem to be able to find it in nav bar?

I went to Navigation / Breadcrumbs Templates > navbar Have i done something wrong?

Then it is a custom style?

That is correct we are using our own style. What we got made from a company.

Then you would need to ask them how to add the links.

You could also write a plugin to use that template_hook. However, if it doesn't exist in your custom style, then that won't work either. I would suggest doing what Chris suggested and contact the style designer about this.

Yeah I was going to suggest the plugin but obviously the template hooks are not in the right place in the custom style. :(
