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.

My mods can't see the tabs. The admins and registered users can.

If 6 is Admins and 2 is registered users
and
1 is unregistered users

What number is for mods?

Thanks!

Hi Bob,

Mods are 7 and super mods are 5. Leaving that part without numbers for usergroups will make the tab visible to all users, so instead of adding each usergroup ID, just don't add them. Read the option description for a example.

I think I found a bug, or perhaps just a limitation. Behavior is identical in both Firefox 3.5.7 and Internet Explorer 8.

When you narrow the window to the point where there's not enough rooms for the tabs (in my case under 1000 pixels, you get the following issues:

#1 - Any tab that hasn't reached the end of the screen goes "under" the search box.

#2 - Any tab that has reached the end of the screen wraps to the next line and is underneath the existing navigation text.

Examples:



Fullscreen however it looks great. Not really a big deal as it is 2010 and most people have wider than 1024 pixel screens anyway, but some people don't' surf fullscreen.

Just wondering if there's a way to make this handle it more gracefully?

Can add tab before tab "Blog" or "What's New"....?

Hi

I'm sorry but I can't make this work. Are there a step by step instructions for someone that doesn't know much about forums?

[Pro-eSports.com]

It would be perfect if you try to implement sublinks for future updates.
I would also like to see some kind of permission thing. For example I want a register/log in tab to show up if you are not logged in. If you are logged in the tab doesn't show up for you anymore.

PS: What are groups and albums by the way? Can someone explain these 2 features? I'm new to vBulletin so I'm still trying to get a hang of all the things.
