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 you use this mod to create a new tab which takes the user to their "Profile" without losing the forum tab so that the site looks a bit more like Facebook and users don't have to spot the small link at the top of the page? If so how?

This plugin has an unremovable Forum tab but it's better than the alternative since I use that tab.

I'm having a problem though. I can't get the background of that tab to have the same hover effect as the other menu tabs. I've been editing the CSS for over an hour now and that's the only thing I can't fix. I already did a lot - because it was stuck on being marked as the selected tab on every page.

http://www.pokemontopaz.net/forums - see the Forum tab. Which css variable do I need to edit that? I looked at all the a:hover stuff and still couldn't find it.

would be cool if you can do a something like "only show if not a member of this group"

Example:

I run a guild site, and for people not in the group that the guild members are in, i want the option for them to click "New recruits start here!" button, but i don't want the rest of my members to see it. (only cause i'm running out of room haha)

Hi,
Just installed this and it works great.

One newbie question: How do I add addition sub tabs under album or groups? I did a search here and could not find the answer.

Thanks
