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.

Installed!

That being said I have a question and possible suggestion.

Question, if I want a 2nd Nav Bar - and try to edit the templates myself - will that break this mod?

Suggestion - (if its not been addressed already) Can you make it support creating a 2nd (or 3rd, etc) Nav Bar?

Thanks!

I like it. Voted, Installed.
Anyway you can make it to where we can add images next to the name?

Installed and nominated - Works on 4.0.6

I had this plugin installed in 4.0.0 and it worked great. However, after the upgrade I'm getting an error message when it's activated. I'd love to keep using it, but I think a new revision is necessary.

The error I'm getting is "Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in [path]/includes/class_bootstrap.php(394) : eval()'d code on line 1"

Your first need to upload the "bitfield_vbhtabs.xml" into your "/includes/xml" folder on the server and afterwards import the product file (e.g. product-vbh_ad-newtabs1.2.xml) as usual.

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong but, I've uploaded the bitfield_vbhtabs.xml file to my includes/xml folder on the server, and I've imported the product file. I'm getting no errors, but also, there are no new tabs. I can go in and edit the options, but nothing changes. It's enabled. I have no idea why this isn't working. I've recently upgraded to 4.0.7. Any advice?
