[HOW TO - vB4] Remove the vB Default Navtabs

Here is a quick article on how to remove some of the default vbulletin navtabs from the navbar template.

Removing the What's New navtab:

Find (near the top of the template):
Code:
        <vb:if condition="!$vboptions['selectednavtab'] AND THIS_SCRIPT != 'search'">
Change to:
Code:
        <vb:if condition="!$vboptions['selectednavtab']">
Find and Remove (about 2/3 down):
Code:
        <vb:if condition="!$vboptions['selectednavtab'] AND THIS_SCRIPT == 'search'">
            <vb:if condition="$show['member']">
            <li  class="selected"><a class="navtab" href="search.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=getnew&amp;contenttype=vBForum_Post">{vb:rawphrase getnew_tab}</a>
...
a bunch more stuff inbetween to remove
...
            </li>
            </vb:if>
        <vb:elseif condition="$show['member']" />
            <li><a class="navtab" href="search.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=getnew&amp;contenttype=vBForum_Post">{vb:rawphrase getnew_tab}</a></li>
        <vb:else />
            <li><a class="navtab" href="search.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=getdaily&amp;contenttype=vBForum_Post">{vb:rawphrase getnew_tab}</a></li>
        </vb:if>
SAVE

In a default navbar template, after removing the chunk of code above, you should end up with this in the template where the code used to be:
Code:
        {vb:raw template_hook.navtab_middle}

        {vb:raw template_hook.navtab_end}
Removing the Home navtab:
Go to Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager > Product: vBulletin CMS > Navbar: Insert CMS Navbar Entry
Plugin is Active: NO
SAVE


Removing the Blogs navtab:
Go to Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager > Product: vBulletin Blog > Navbar: Eval Blog Link Template and Validate Styleid
Find and Remove (or comment out):
Code:
if (defined('VBBLOG_CACHED_TEMPLATES'))
{
    if (defined('VBBLOG_SCRIPT'))
    {
        $vbulletin->options['selectednavtab'] = 'vbblog';
    }
    $template_hook['navtab_middle'] .= vB_Template::create('blog_navbar_link')->render();
        $template_hook['navbar_getnew_menu'] .= vB_Template::create('blog_navbar_whatsnew_link')->render();
    if ($show['blog_search'])
    {
        $template_hook['navbar_search_menu'] .= vB_Template::create('blog_navbar_search')->render();
    }
}
SAVE

Removing the Forum navtab:

Find and remove (starts near the very top):
Code:
        <vb:if condition="!$vboptions['selectednavtab'] AND THIS_SCRIPT != 'search'">
  ...
a bunch more stuff inbetween to remove
...
        <vb:else />
            <li><a class="navtab" href="{vb:link forumhome}">{vb:rawphrase forum}</a></li>
        </vb:if>
SAVE

It's going to be hard to tag since there is no tagging in 3.6.

how to disable the link on the navbar?

This may be beyond the scope of this topic, but I'm searching for a way to completely remove the new "navtap" bar that contains the "Forum" and What's New" tabs and also the Search box.

I wish to completely eliminate the entire bar including its content. What would be a simple way to achieve it? Any ideas? Any links?

I'd like to remove my Forum tab and instead place a link to it in a drop down Forums tab. But...without a hand hold I don't know how to do so.

Hi, Lynne:

Great info! I hope you can help me take the programming changes to the navbar template one step further, by eliminating the entire second row of the navbar altogether.

That is, I want to turn this:



into this:



We already have an extensive website that the forum needs to fit into, so the second row just adds confusion to the site given the site's existing headers, search features, and so on.

Many thanks,
James
