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.

excellent
just one thing.. reverse the logic of showing for selected users.. leaving the number blank, or 0, means that everyone can see the damn links.. i'd prefer that logic at least.. wat say/

otherwise, very good..
sometimes i dont know how the VB coding is done by those developers..

Is there a way to add two separate tab groups, for example, one group on the left and one on the right? I tried adding a second plugin, but that didn't work. I just see one "vbh New Tabs Options" instance in Edit Settings.

All the above after the correct path to your forum

The url you suggested displays the results as threads. Do you know how you can list todays posts as posts. I would be grateful if you could provide the url to display todays posts as posts.

Any idea on how to change the color of the text? I've been looking and can't seem to come up with anytning. Thanks and keep up the good work!

Great mod - easy to do, MUCH better than the template mod crap. As MANY people have said, three things:

1) This should be part of the default install - like any other CMS/Forum script (not your problem)

2) The selected tab really needs to be the one highlighted

3) Need a way to change the sub-navbar links along with the new tab, like the default links

Changing order of the new links and the default links is a fine idea, but I can live without it.

Great work, thanks!
