Other Setup

These additional setup items are not necessary but might prove to be useful

Add My Forum to Forum Jump

To make life easier for members you might want to added "My Forum" to the forum jump menu. Unfortunately vBulletin does not include any hooks that can be used to dynamically add this. So if you want this functionality it requires a, drum roll please, file edit:

1. Download and open forumdisplay.php in your favourite text editor.
2. Find the following line:
   
   

   case 'subs':	$goto = 'subscription'; break;

3. Immediately after paste in:
   
   

   //START - MOD - Added case to added jump to My Forum support
   case 'myforum':	$goto = 'myforum'; break;
   //END - MOD - Added case to added jump to My Forum support

4. Save the file and reupload to your server.
5. Goto ACP style manager and open the "forumjump" template for editing.
6. Find the following line:
   
   

   <option value="home" $frmjmpsel[home]>$vbphrase[forums_home]</option>

   Immediately after paste in:
   
   

   <option value="myforum" $frmjmpsel[myforum]>$vbphrase[myforum_navtext]</option>

   If you are running multiple styles this change will need to be added to them all (unless you are using inherited styles)
7. Add thats that.

Adding the link to Forum Jump is obviously optional, not adding this will not break the modification.

Add My Forum to Breadcrumb box

To make My Forum even more accessible to your members you could also add a link to it in the breadcrumb table at the top of your forum. To do this follow these steps:

1. Via ACP style manager open the "navbar" template (under Navigation / Breadcrumb Templates).
2. Find the first instance of the following line:
   
   

   <td class="alt1" width="100%">

3. Immediately after this paste in the following:
   
   

   <span class="smallfont" style="float:$stylevar[right]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/myforum.png" alt="" border=0> <a href="myforum.php">$vbphrase[myforum_navtext]</a></span>

4. Save the template

Doing this will require you to upload a "myforum.png" image file to your styles misc images directory (I have included the icon I use in the zip). Or you could change the code above and use an image that already exists on your server.

If you prefer you can only display this link to logged in members by adding the following code instead:

<if condition="$show['member']">
	<span class="smallfont" style="float:$stylevar[right]"><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/myforum.png" alt="" border=0> <a href="myforum.php">$vbphrase[myforum_navtext]</a></span>
</if>
