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.

Hi, I'm new to vbulletin forum (or any other, for that matter) and have never installed a mod before. Can someone please explain to me what exactly I have to do to install it?

I've downloaded the file, extracted it. What do I do next? Upload the whole thing through ftp into my general forum folder or what?

Thanks in advance. Sorry if this was asked before...

Extract the xml file to your desktop. From your admincp, go to "Plug-ins and Products", go to "Manage Products", and then select "Add/Import Product". Browse the the xml you just saved to your desktop. and upload.

2nd step in THIS mod is to upload files (from the upload folder) to your server via FTP.

Thanks a lot! I'll try it out.

It appears to me that I have installed it, but I can't seem to find where this is "vBulletin Options> VBH New Tabs Option" in my Admin Control Panel

That being the case... I strongly suggest reading through this:

I'm aware of the manual, but it is too lengthy, I can't seem to find any specific answer to my issues.

I suspect that "VBH New Tabs Option", as referenced in the original post, is the same thing as what I have under Plugins & Products > vBH - Add new tabs 1.2. However, when I click on it, I get the strangest redirect to some spanish-language forum.

On the very top left in your admincp... Settings, Options, and click the arrow down until you find this product. This area is where you will set most options on your board.
