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.

Can anyone recommend how I do this? I have this mod where it creates new tabs, however the page I link it to is a custom coded page, I want to keep the same header and navbar...background....logo...etc. as my site has. How would I just create a mirror basic page with same header and navbar but allow me to just have custom code in between the header and navbar? Please list DETAILED instructions on how to do this.

any ideas if it could be possible to add the possibility to modify the default tabs ?

Installed it on vB4 Gold, works fine but using vBulletin.org|http://www.vbulletin.org=>blank
for example allows all usergroups to view the tab, when its supposed to be Admin only.

I could not get it to work for registered users and admins by using vBulletin|http://www.vbulletin.com=>blank;6 1, instead I had to use vBulletin.org|http://www.vbulletin.org=>blank.

Not sure if its a bug or if I am doing something wrong.

My apologies, I had been using a moderator user to do testing.

Everything is working as suggested. Good work

You can not with that with this hack, although Elmer says that he will try to add that functionality at some point, but there is no ETA atm.

However, if you can not wait for that to happen, then check out my site, there is a product that does all of this, see my signature for the link.
