Miscellaneous Hacks - vBH-Add new tabs

vBH-Add new tabs 1.2 with no querys
Mark as installed, if you use it


If you like this modification please suport it in the mod of the moth poll

What does this plugin?
This plugin allows you to add new tabs in the navigation bar to link to any site you want.

Installation:
Import the xml file from the product manager..
Upload the files in the upload folder to your forums via ftp.

To add new tabs, go to:
vBulletin Options> VBH New Tabs Option


Configuration example:

AdminCP|/admincp/=>self;6
google|http://www.google.com=>self;1 2
vbulletin|http://www.vbulletin.com=>self;1 2
yahoo|http://www.yahoo.com=>self;1 2
vbulletin.org|http://www.vbulletin.org=>self;1 2

See screenshots.

To make tab selected:
This option only works if your tab links to internal files. You need to enter the THIS_SCRIPT value under the option Tabs Selected.

Also note that some areas of vBulletin already use the THIS_SCRIPT value in their code and because of this some tabs may not work correctly. A example of this would be the usercp.php file. If you make a tab linking to this file and then you enter the value 'usercp' to make it selected, the tab will be selected but also will be the forum tab. This is because vBulletin used this value in the navbar template.

You won't have problems when linking to custome pages.

Absolutely AWESOME!!!!

Why this was this not included in vbulletin as a standard feature I WILL NEVER KNOW!

[floydian1]

When I click on one of my tabs, the forum tab stays highlighted.
Did I do something wrong?

[BlueCheri]

That would be a great idea

It works well with vb 4.1.1
Unfortunately, it does NOT work on vb 4.1.2

Any update ?

[Hippy]

works with vb4.1.2 for me

Hello,

Can somepne please give me the exact code I need to install this (once the code that needs removing has been removed please) as I think I am removing the wrong bits and thats why I can get it to work.

Also does this mod have the same highlighting issues all the others seem to have and if so has that not been sorted in 4.1.2

[TeknoSounds]

no issues as far as I'm aware. Most of the highlighting issues come from not properly setting THIS_SCRIPT.

As for 4.1.2, if you do not want any other links besides the ones you put in, and also this removes the small menu underneath aswell.

Go into navbar, and replace everything with...

<div class="navwrap">
    <div class="navL"></div>
    <div class="navR"></div>
    <div class="navC">
<!-- nav buttons bar -->

<div id="navbar" class="navbar">

    <ul id="navtabs" class="navtabs floatcontainer<vb:if condition="$show['member'] AND $notifications_total"> notify</vb:if>">

        <vb:if condition="!$vboptions['selectednavtab'] AND THIS_SCRIPT != 'search'">

Hello,

I am not looking to change the main Navbar stuff I just want to add this mod but without the copyright link at the bottom that people have complained about in previous posts. I tried to remove it as instructed but messed something up. Can someone who has this working in 4.1.1 please post the xml file with the code removed.

thanks
