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.

Shocking that such a feature isn't standard.

Good mod and thanks for doing what vBulletin should have already done. Needs custom nav bar sub links though.

Installed. Thank you.

Elmer,

Thanks for the mod
Please, find in attachment the french translation
You can find the french topic for this mod here: http://forum.vbulletin-fr.org/modifi...mod&modid=1080

P.S : For the next update, could you please include the phrase concerning the tab position (left, center, right), to have a fully phrased mod

P.S 2 : In your example, we notice a mistake. When you write : "Opens in a new window an is visible to the administrator and registered users. <br />
<b>vBulletin|http://www.vbulletin.com=&gt;blank;6 1<br />"
The usergroup ID for registered users is 2, and not 1

such a useful mod that makes life that little easier. Why can't things like this be added as default is past me. Maybe 4.1 will include some useful features like this.

Thanks for this very useful tool.

I would love to see it developed to include the standard tabs, Home Forums Blogs What's New, so they can be removed if required.

Thanks again

WILFMAN

Hi,
why when i click on a tab, the button don't change in white like all the other default vbulletin 4 buttons?

For example if i go in the forum, the forum button will be changed in white, if i go in the blog, the blog button change in white..... Why using this mod , the new tab are not contorned and not been white?

[hassshasss]

in this way would be if we plug the link

easy_pages.php?p=1

the following link button

easy_pages.php?p

in this way is that your pages for broken links will not open and how we can solve?
