Good point. I will update them when I get the chance.

Hi there,

Great article!

This is along the lines of a similar topic and I was wondering if you are able to give me some advice on the best way to replace the existing vBulletin Navbar tabs with the ddtabmenu style that I found at the Dynamic Drive website.

My questions are probably VERY basic so apologies up front.

1. Do I just make the changes outlined in the article at http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/ddtabmenu.htm to the existing vBulletin template in Admin cp/Style Manager/Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates/navbar? In effect overwriting the original vBulletin templates?

2. Is the Admin cp/Style Manager/Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates/navbar the correct place to make such changes

3. Or do I make the changes to the downloaded files, and then upload these to the appropriate directory on my vBulletin website. Once this is done do I go to the Admin cp/Download Upload Styles/Import Style XML File and import the file? In effect creating a new template??

3. If I do 3 then is it a matter of setting this as the new default template?

Hope this all makes sense....

Thanks in advance,

SuperTaz

Let me update them first and then I will get back with you, KeithRichards. It will be a few days because of working a lot of hours.

This did not work for me. It put the new navbar tabs mixed in with my regular ones. It did not create a separate tab bar. See picture.

Try this...

In Navbar After..

Code:

 <li><a href="search.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}" accesskey="4">{vb:rawphrase advanced_search}</a></li>

        </ul>

</div>

ADD

Code:

<ul id="navtabs" class="navtabs floatcontainer">

<br />br /><br />

<!-- Navbar Links -->

<li class="non-selected"><a class="navtab" href="sample.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}">Sample</a></li>

<li class="non-selected"><a class="navtab" href="sample.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}">Sample</a></li>

<li class="non-selected"><a class="navtab" href="sample.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}">Sample</a></li>

<li class="non-selected"><a class="navtab" href="sample.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}">Sample</a></li>

<!-- / Navbar Links -->

</ul>

Seemed to do the trick for me!

It does not create a separate tab bar only adds to the current one.

I see.... but it shows a separate tab bar in the screenshot.

Or am I missing something?

Where it says server stats, server slots, arcade, downloads, ect. ect.

This is what I was installing this mod for :o

SuperTaz

That is not for this mod. That is something I was toying around with. Directly underneath the large tabs in the second shot where it says, (sample, sample, sample, etc) is what the second part of the links do.

Okay thank you so much anyway :). If you come out with anything for that second row send me a PM :)

Been working a lot lately. But, if I do, I will let you know. :)

When you add a link to the navbar, what Conditional do you need to set to get it to Highlight?

Example:

When I add a link - and click on it - it doesn't Highlight.

Forum stays Highlighted - after "Text4" is clicked.

Change the red text to "non-selected" on all your styles, as it is shown above in blue, and it should not stay highlighted unless you hover over it.

FYI: You're youtube video is set to private. I cannot access it.

In the navbar template, find this code:

Code:

<li><a href="search.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=getdaily&amp;contenttype=vBForum_Post">{vb:rawphrase todays_posts}</a></li>

</vb:if>

Right after that add this code:

Code:

<li><a href="sample.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}">Sample</a></li>

Result: Look at the screen shot.

i wanted to remove some of the original navlinks, but somehow i cant get it to work.
so if i choose to kill one of the nav links the whole navbar is crushed...

I installed using the first option. It worked great on the top nav bar, but it affected the style on the lower nav bar (where it says New Posts, Private Messages, etc.). For example, where there is the arrow for the drop down menu next to "Quick Links" the arrow is no longer white (it is a dark color) and the drop down menu itself is completely different. There aren't any borders around the drop down menu, and the text is white with a white background.

Once I remove the code, everything goes back to how it should be. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

ETA: I just realized I am running 4.0.8 - maybe it will work when I upgrade to 4.1?

Remember, this is for the latest vbulletin, which is 4.1.5, not the older ones, as they use somewhat different variables.

ah...those were examples of what the forum links look like, not the actual forum links.

I was able to work this out on my own. Thanks!

Hello,

I've just used this to add an "apply" link to my navbar. However, it only shows up on the Forum page, and not any of the other pages. I am not sure what I did wrong.

Thank you!
