Hello again Chris;

You were kind enough to help me last April (as depicted above), but I have since upgraded to from VB 4.1.11 to VB 4.1.20 ... and the Activity Stream and Navigation Manager ransacked all of my custom tabs. Fortunately, I have fixed all of them all now--except for my subnavigation links associated with my Home/CMS Tab.

I tried to re-follow this advice you gave me several months ago, of putting the above code into my vbcms_navbar_link, but it doesn't seem to be working with this iteration of VB.

Any ideas on how to add the following sub-navigation links to my Home Tab that will globally affect all of my CMS in VB 4.1.20?:

Thanks again for all your help!

Jack

Have you tried adding them to the Navigation Manager directly?

Chris

Yes, but the Navigation Manager won't let me do it. I have to go into each CMS document and add sub-nav links, but those links are pre-set to be "categories" of CMS documents, I cannot custom add my payments.php page.

Was hoping you might know a template workaround like the other one ...

Jack

Off the top of my head no, I have not looked into it to much since they switched to the Navigation Manager

Chris

I added the hack and made the modification to the navbar, but when I look under the menu, I have no options. Please see screenshots. Any ideas?

The blank page is that when you click on the Navigation Manager? The second screen shot is right, that is all the setting that should be in that menu.

Chris

I understand.

The "Welcome" subnavigation link is globally displayed on all content.php documents, so I figure there has to be a corresponding template to which a few other subnav links could be added for global display also, like last time.

Just thought you might know and thanks anyway :)

Jack

Yes the blank page is when I click on General Settings under vbtabs on the left side of the admincp.

Am I in the wrong place?

If you pm me a admin account and ftp info I can look into it for you.

Chris

Hi Chris,

Regarding the Blog tab in VB 4.1.12, how would I adjust its position manually in this template? Or would I use another?

Cheers,

Jack

You want to move the Subscribe link somewhere else in the template? If so just move that bit of code around till you like it's placement.

Chris

Sorry, no, I want to move the Blog tab itself to be somewhere else on the Navbar.

On the template above, where it says

I tried changing "navbar_end" to "navbar_begin" (middle, etc.) and it never moved.

Was just wondering how to move the Blog tab via the template is all :)

Thanks,

Jack

Ahh ok then that would have to be done in the plugin. ACP / Plugins & Products / Plugin Manager then scroll down to Product : vBulletin Blog and find the plugin Navbar: Eval Blog Link Template and Validate Styleid click on that then search for:

Then change middle to start or end and click on save

Chris

Thank you sir!

Not a problem, glad to help. :)

Chris

I've added 4.2 ONLY, but I only get to see this in the AdminCP:

Where is the rest? :o All handled through vB's navigation manager?

While it works adding a tab, using the navigation tab set to your product. I'm unable to add any kind of menu's to the tabs.

All the other options now are found in the Navigation Manager by editing / adding the items.

Chris

I'm still having problems adding a sub-menu. I can create a tab with ease, however. Creating a submenu / link (dropdown menu) doesn't work what so ever. Doesn't matter what options I choose. Some help would be appreciated. And yes, vBNavTabs (vB 4.2.0+) product is selected.

It is a small process but not to difficult.

1) Create a tab.
2) Create a menu for the tab.
3) Edit the tab and the last setting, "Select The Menu To Act As The Dropdown." select the menu you just created, click on save.
4) Add links to the menu you created, these are what will show up as the dropdown items in the tab.

Chris

I've had issues with modifications in the past that add custom stylevars. The last mod that I installed that added custom stylevars ended up overwriting everything, giving me a completely blank stylevar list: http://gyazo.com/5a1122bd80167e9f33c...389?1349593243

^The above is what happened to me, and I was told by the makers of that mod that it was a bug with vB itself. I've since restored my stylevars, but will a similar issue occur with this mod?

I have not seen this happen on any sites as of yet. With this mod or any of our other mods, and that entails thousands of installs. But if you want to be safe try it out on a test site that is a copy of your live site. I would be interested to know which mod that was that caused that

Chris

I want to display directly the content of the "forum" tab, is it possible? Without having 2 navbars

I am not sure what you mean, could you clarify.

Chris

Sure Chris, sorry

I actually have (by default)

Activity and Forum items on the main navbar

Inside Forum activity, there are listed all the links i 'm interested in

So, i want that items to be on the main navbar always

Is it possible?

Thanks in advance

Which version of vBulletin are you running?

Chris

Trying to figure out what style var the dropdown menu items use. Our dark theme makes it hard to read the dropdown items.

If you are talking about the text that uses the stylevar, popupmenu_link_color found in the group PopupMenus.

Chris

4.2

Then you would have to disable them in the Navigation Manager, and make them as tabs instead of sublinks.

Chris

I did this but it did not change the color for some reason. I was able to change the font size so its better, but using a different color would help. http://www.tns-gaming.com is our site and the Features dropdown is where I am having trouble.

I know I did this right because it is showing up on other things that are not related to NavTabs

That is the only thing I can think of, unless the custom style is using something different, you could do a search in templates for this:

Once you see which templates have that, open them up and then click on find and look for some code that looks like this:

Where it says, color: {vb:stylevar navbar_popupmenu_link_color}; that is the stylevar it is using.

Chris

I've looked at that and it appeared fine, when I look at the raw code and inspected the element using chrome I am seeing this:

The CSS element is just element.style. It appears its being generated in the code instead of the CSS or a StyleVar. Have no clue why this is that way. Any ideas?

Maybe the style coder did not add the code in right, try adding this to your additional.css template in that style:

And let me know if it works or not, if it don't you can remove that code from the template so it don't cause issues down the road.

Chris

That didn't work, but I went into the code more and I checked where it was getting all the information. In the includes/functions.php it had the .navbar_selected_popup_body_a_Color stylevar being used. I added that into my additional.css and it didn't work, so I decided to experiement and just changed the code there to a color and it worked.

I hate to do that and I know when you push an update I'll probably have to redo it, but at least I got the result I was looking for. I have no clue why none of the style vars were working.

In further looking, I've discovered I don't have a navbar_selected_popup_body_a_Color stylevar. How can I add one to my style so I don't have to mod your code?

It can get a bit complicated, but you can look at this post and see if you can do it, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=233973

I would ask the skin developer to add it as it should be there.

Chris

Thanks for all the help the past few days!
