File Edits: 0
Template Edits: 2
Difficulty: Easy


Description:
You can add links or multiple menus to the navbar quickly through a form. Specify which usergroups can see each link via the permissions system.


F.A.Q.
Q: Why aren't the links showing?
A: Edit the link in your Admin CP and check the usergroup permissions

Q: All the links I made from the last version are gone
A: Go into phpmyadmin and select your vbulletin database.
Browse the table named "custom_droplinks". Change all the "catid's" with 0 to 1.
Go into your ACP --> Advanced Navbar Links --> Modify/Delete The links should show up under the first category. You can edit the links from here and select a different category to place it in.

Q: How do I get the links to appear on vBAdvanced?
A: Go into your ACP --> vBa CMPS --> Default Settings
Look for "Portal Output Global Variables". Add the following into the text area.

custom_singlelinks
custom_droplinks
custom_droplinks_cat

If you install this mod please press the "Install" button.

--Change Log--
1.0.0 - Initial Release

1.0.1 - took out the code that automatically added HTML to the navbar. I thought having it do it automatically was cool but can be annoying because you can't easily customize the class or placement

2.0.0 - Added the functionality to add multiple drop down menus

2.0.1 - Added missing table prefixes

Nice Mod - thanks !

It's a good mod, but sadly I discoverd it does not work with vbdrupal. The custom link vanishes, and the dropdown menu appears, but it is empty. I've uninstalled it momentarily due to this.

Hey has anyone else had this problem its just on one of my templates when i go to click extra nothing comes up??

[harmor19]

Some pages it doesn't work on.
I don't think it works on the "No Permissions" page.

Is it possible to get one more link menu or will it came under the same menu as the first one??

I want a new menu for the new post link and put some more time links
