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:

Code:

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 someone please help me with downloading this? I just got my website up. I have vBulletin Publishing Suite 4.1.11, and I really want to be able to have two forums, and multiple news sections, and multiple blogs on my website, as well as additional customized tabs, such as one for selling books or something.

One would be on one tab, and the other would be next to that tab (you know, where it says "Forum" on the top of the page).

Basically it would be "Forum 1" and "Forum 2", for example. And then there would be a "Blog 1" and a "Blog 2". And a "News 1" and "News 2".

Is this possible within vBulletin 4.1.11 Publishing Suite? I really want to have this for my website.

It appears that this is what this mod does, where we can choose what each tab says. But would I be able to have a second entire Forum section with this?

Also, can someone please tell me the most current download of this file, with the most improvements? I saw that it was revised many times throughout this series of posts.

Can someone go through with me, step by step on how to actually download this and implement it into my vBulletin? I really don't want to mess up any of my stuff so far because it took a lot of work and learning to get it to where it is now. And I apologize - I am a complete novice with this stuff.

my sig has latest also to have new fourms one you would need to buy them as it is one forum per a url once you get it you put the 2nd fourms up as sub forums and using this plugin to make a link to it on the tabs

Dave234 · #**864** 03-25-2012, 07:56 PM

Alright, I just ran it. Now what do I do? I have a folder with an "upload" folder and an XML Document that says "product-vbh_newtabs10".

In the "upload" folder there is another folder called "includes". Inside that folder is a folder that says "xml". Inside the "xml" folder is an XML Document called "bitfield_vbhtabs".

What do I do? You must remember, I am a moron, and know nothing about computers, making websites, or implementing code.

ForceHSS · #**865** 03-25-2012, 09:33 PM

This file bitfield_vbhtabs goes into the folder called xml that you will find inside the includes folder. Use a ftp program to login to see all the folders

This file product-vbh_newtabs10 is the xml that you upload from the admin cp

If you dont know how to do it pm me with the correct info and i will do it for you or post in the paid section of these forums

Dave234 · #**866** 03-25-2012, 10:46 PM

Hey, how are you? I really appreciate your help with all this.

"This file bitfield_vbhtabs goes into the folder called xml that you will find inside the includes folder."

The file "bitfield_vbhtabs" is already in the folder called XML, which is already in the "Includes" folder.

"Use a ftp program to login to see all the folders"

What is an "ftp program"? Do I still need one if I can already see the folders? Am I fine with this?

"This file product-vbh_newtabs10 is the xml that you upload from the admin cp. If you dont know how to do it pm me with the correct info and i will do it for you or post in the paid section of these forums"

OK, so I'm in my admincp. Where do I need to be before uploading the xml file? Which section? Once I'm there, do I just press a button that says "Browse..." and then "Upload"? Can I save the xml file to my desktop first, and then upload it from there?

I really appreciate all your help with this.

Sorry just getting back to you about this.. The links are good when I remove the What's New tab, but they lose formatting for some reason. I believe it's because in the templates, they are in <ul> tags under whatever tab is selected. like this...

HTML Code:

<li class="selected"><a class="navtab" href="forum.php">Forum</a>
				<ul class="floatcontainer">
			<li><a href="search.php?do=getnew&amp;contenttype=vBForum_Post">New Posts</a></li>
etc...
etc...
etc...
				</ul>	
	</li>

But with the What's New tab removed, it doesn't have a "parent" tab anymore...

Maybe it's not clear what I'm trying to do. I have the vB default "Home" tab linked to the CMS index. In the vBH added on tabs, I've linked to 3 other CMS Static Article pages. All 3 of these pages in the THIS_SCRIPT it says 'vbcms'. So when any of those tabs are clicked, it shows the "Home" tab selected. I need to figure out how to change those individual page THIS_SCRIPT to something different, so it will recognize it separate from the Home tab.

here are the tab links I have listed.

Code:

Chapters|content.php?114-tx4wd-chapters=>self
Wheelin|content.php?117-where-to-wheel=>self
Resources|content.php?140-off-road-resources=>self
Albums|album.php=>self
Calendar|calendar.php=>self

And the Home tab links to the content.php main CMS page. So the "Chapters", "Wheelin", and "Resources" tabs need separate THIS_SCRIPT tags.

Did this help? Do you think this is possible?

ForceHSS · #**870** 03-28-2012, 04:19 PM

pm me the admin account will fix it for you

raymondblog · #**871** 04-04-2012, 07:20 AM

I agree with what gpinjason is experiencing as I am seeing the same problem in my forum as well after upgrading to 1.5

Everything looks OK.

However if I remove the What's New Tab, clicking on New Posts link will break the formatting on the second navigation bar.
