vb.org Archive - [How-To] Adding Link to USERCP Navbar

Hello

I felt i needed to contribute this post to the articles since i couldn't find a good one anywhere.
This tutorial explains how to create an additional link to your USERCP Navbar

*Note - I couldn't write in Articles, so might as well wait for the Moderator's here to move it over to articles.

1. Template USERCP_SHELL
Under

PHP Code:


		
			
<!-- usercp nav -->

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0">

<tr>

    <td class="tcat"><a href="usercp.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[control_panel]</a></td>

</tr>

Add

PHP Code:


		
			
<tr>

    <td class="thead">Sample Options</td>

</tr>

    <tr>

        <td class="$navclass[sample]" nowrap="nowrap"><a class="smallfont" href="sample.php">Sample</a></td>

    </tr>

Replace sample with the title of your menu which you want to display in usercp navbar.

2. Modify includes/functions_user.php
Under

PHP Code:


		
			
        $cells = array(

                'usercp',

Add

PHP Code:


		
			
        $cells = array(

                'usercp',

                'sample',

3. Create sample.php in vBulletin root directory

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

// ####################### SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

// #################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################

define('NO_REGISTER_GLOBALS', 1);

define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'sample'); // change this depending on your filename

// ################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################

// get special phrase groups

$phrasegroups = array('user', 'infractionlevel');



// get special data templates from the datastore

$specialtemplates = array(

);

// pre-cache templates used by all actions

$globaltemplates = array(

        'USERCP_SHELL',

);

// pre-cache templates used by specific actions

$actiontemplates = array(

);

// ######################### REQUIRE BACK-END ############################

require_once('./global.php');

require_once('includes/functions_user.php');



// Prevent Non-registered Users from Previewing

if (!$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])

        print_no_permission();



// Start Navbar

$navbits = array('usercp.php' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl_q'] => $vbphrase['user_control_panel']);

construct_usercp_nav('sample');

$navbits[''] = 'Sample';







// Print Content, Navigationbar

// eval('$content .= "' . fetch_template('sample') . '";');



// Make Navbar

$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);

eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');

eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('USERCP_SHELL') . '");');

?>

Hope you'll find this useful. :D
