It works! Thanks Lynne.

Now, Anyone know a way to copy a group of Link/Menus?
Not the actuall tabs but the sub links etc. I have about 7 on my main "forum" tab but then the menus are quite big.
I would like to copy all these to my "classifieds" tab for the time being and then might change a few later down the road.
I hope there is a quick way to copy them!

Thanks
Mat

I think Andreas wrote a modification that will do what you want with the sub links.

hook - set_navigation_tab_main

PHP Code:

if (in_array($GLOBALS['forumid'], array(2,15)))  $root = 'tab_nzg3_214'; 


This helps a LOT! thanks a bunch :up:

Hi. Sorry Im new with vB. Never used it before. Can you write a step by step guide how to do this? I dont really get it I have same problem. When I add a new tab and click on it, the tab dont get highligted.

Try setting "Append 'tabid' to URL" to Yes in the Navigation Manager for that tab and see if that fixes the issue. Otherwise, you will need to write a plugin like above. See the manual here - https://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/plugin_system

Thanks. That worked

The home tab now highlights, but the site does not land on that page even though I made the default the Home tab.

I don't know PHP, so writing my own plugin is out.

My forum tab highlights and I tried everything to get it to stop that. Any ideas what I should do?

[Lynne]

Can you post all the information in the Navigation Manager tab that isn't working?
