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.

Thoughts?

I have it installed successfully on a classic 4.1.3.

Regarding your problem. Could it be that you are trying to upload the xml file in the plugin uploader when you should be adding/importing a 'Product'??

Plugins & Products -> Manage Products -> Add/Import Product

Hope this helps.

Well, maybe I'm forgetting the process, but I was doing the above mentioned because when I do your suggestion I would get this:
Please upload the file bitfield_vbhtabs.xml to /includes/xml/ before installing or upgrading!
Por favor subre el archivo bitfield_vbhtabs.xml a /includes/xml/ y luego instalar o actualizar este addon

Ideas?

Sure, not a problem.

The installation is a two step process, there are two different xml files.

1) First you need to place 'bitfield_vbhtabs.xml' on your web server in the correct folder /includes/xml/ . You can find this file inside the upload folder. Maybe use a FTP client to get this to your web space (if your server is not local).

2) Secondly,this is the stage you can use the VB control panel to upload product-vbh_newtabs10.xml.

We are using vBadvanced CMPS v4.1.0 on our vB 4.1.3 Forum Classic. Unfortunatly the "Home" tab which goes the CMPS index will not depress when click. The THIS_SCRIPT is entered correctly from the php.

Are there any thoughts on this?
Thanks

Uninstalled this and found a different mod. Sorry but for something as trivial as adding a tab to my navbar does not warrant a link in my footer.

[basilrath]

Well customise the footer etc
